With the Esprit Gemini Digital monolights you are free from mains power.
With the Pulsar Radio Trigger system you can be free from sync cables too.
This multifunctional device can be used to trigger flash units, film and digital
cameras and light meters up to 100m away.
Because the Pulsar is a radio transmitter rather than IR, it allows for
triggering around corners or through walls and is not affected by high
ambient light situations. Choose from four individual channels and six studio
setting per channel, each providing a unique ID for different flash devices or
combine them to trigger all equipment within a given setup or studio.
Because of its low-voltage operation, it is perfect for digital cameras. Each unit can be used as either a
transmitter or receiver and operates using only two AAA batteries.
