Hello,

My name is Federico and I'm a photographer based in Buenos Aires. I was using my Einstein with a Vagabond Mini outdoors and after firing properly a couple of times, the Vagabond started making smoke and instantly "burned" the Einstein connected to it.
I unplugged the Einstein immediately and later that afternoon I plugged it directly to 220v; the flash started but didn't fire the flash and somehow the security fuse didn't break.
I decided to power up the vagabond mini again and it started without any more smoke or anything weird (it's security fuse didn't break either), but when I plugged a common bulb to one of its plugs, it was giving much more light than when it ¡s plugged to 220v... as if the Vagabond Mini was offering much more than 220v.

Have you heard this before? Do you know what the problem might be? I'm starting a personal project in less than 3 weeks and would love to bring this combo with me :)

Best regards,

Federico Cabrera
