Anyone knows if I can power my Calumet Travelite strobes with Vagabond II?

Thanks!

Calumet Travelite 750's will work. We have no other confirmed info on any other model. Models with a digital readout are less likely to work, those that are all analog tend to work. Also, if a light has a built in reciever (like a PW module) the recievers may shut down after one shot, while the light itself continues to work. The digital nature of digital lights and recievers require a certain voltage for the micro processors to operate. When the peak draw from the recycling of the lights occurs, voltage drops (hence a slower recycle with several lights), when this voltage drops, the micro processors can shut down.


*of course Einstein was designed to tolerate the voltage drop of Vagabond.
