400W trasformer is not enough, you will blow fuses
400W portable power (like the Vagabond) can work. However, as mentioned, you will need a pure sinewave inverter. If you do not, then damage can occur to the lights. The damage may be slow or it may be fast, but modified sinewave inverters are not good for our lights. Also, the inverter must be current regulated. This means under a heavy draw (like during recycle) the unit will lower voltage, but continue to output power (like a brown out). Those that do not see the heavy draw, and shut off. This means you will have to reset the inverter after each shot. Inverters that meet those criteria are more expensive, hence the cost of the Vagabond.
