Few weeks ago we used it with no problems at a shoot. Got home charged it - next shoot we got about 1/3 through it and it would no longer fire the strobe. The lights were all on and fans running but just get a faint click out of the strobes when tried to fire. Got home charged it again and the next morning all seemed ok.
Yesterday, took it to another shoot and it never fired a strobe once. Instantly it just got the faint click out of the strobe when trying to fire. After the 1 try the dump light on the back of the strobe just blinked, never got the ok light to come up.
I just now plugged in a strobe again to it - it has just sat since yesterday - no charging or anything. Now the strobes are firing again, I don't know how long they will go for and it seems a bit slow on cycle than usual.
I bought mine from you on 1/6/2009 so it is about a year and a half old.
Any help on this would be appreciated as I can't trust this in the field and need it to perform again.
Thanks !

Just wanted to know if you have resolved the issue with your Vagabond II. I own a VBII from 07 and it seems to work OK. But, latey I have been reading posts about issues with the VBIIs. This concerns me because I am looking to order another one and it sounds like there are problems with the one's currently going out the door. Of course, that may be due to the fact that there are more VBII owners out there now then there were 3-4 years ago and this forum wasn't up yet to hear about any issues.
So if I may ask TS. Is there any way of knowing if PCB is working on fixing any issues that PCB is aware of with the VBII? I would rather wait for a later production line with issues fixed. Thanks
