ELVARNIXO Strobes — daylight, on demand
The Andromeda is the studio's dependable sun: nine stops of IGBT-controlled power, colour that stays put from full to a whisper, and a modelling LED that tells the truth about what will fire.
These strobes are built the way rental houses wish all flash was: stable colour from full power to the ninth stop down, recycle times that hold at frame twenty of a burst, and user-replaceable flashtubes seated in machined mounts. Fans are temperature-governed and honest about their noise figure, and modelling LEDs track flash output so what you see is what fires.

Questions, Answered
How fast is the recycle really?
Rated at mains voltage and full power in the specification, as stated by the manufacturer, with the burst behaviour noted. Battery units state shots per charge at full and half power.
Will it sync with my camera system?
Standard sync, HSS and TTL modules cover the major camera systems; the listing states which. Tell us your bodies and we confirm before dispatch.
