There is a bowens flash head that likely needs a repair at work, it maybe useful for the photo area, would the photo people be interested.
Only if there’s someone who’s confident they can fix it, though just one isn’t so useful unless it’s for a photo booth. What model is it, any accessories?
I’ve not had a chance to look at it yet, but it’s possibly just old caps as it’s an old unit…
No burning smell has a bulb, no other accessories.
I will have a look at it , shood be simple
If folks agree to having it in the first place.
I have been meaning to do more electronics , will look forward to doing it
That’s a big one! Bit overkill for us maybe, is replacing the caps fairly trivial? All in all personally not fussed but won’t stop anyone else.
I’ll try and fit it in my back pack.
If it’s a Bowen’s it should be fully serviceable. Top work @unknowndomain !
The hard part on this is the several thousand volts in the storage and trigger circuits. This defo comes under the no lone working policy !!

Definitely only HV experienced people to fix it if it is not working properly
I volunteer. Go big or go home.
No brainer. Let’s take it.
May just need new fuse or flash tube.
Flash tubes are a bit pricey though but worth taking a look
Me or @Courty should keep it at home …
Until fixed
Yes 600J delivered in 1/5000 sec will probably kill you without too much trouble
Sounds like a challenge for Christmas ‘wire game’ 2.0
Yes it will …
Lol, an upgrade to the wire game ! Yeay
Courty
Isn’t that the equivalent of several megawatts/sec ?!
That’s a proper kick

Paul you’ve just disappointed me…
