> VIVITAR 285HV THYRISTOR FLASH HELP
Has anyone had experience with the Vivitar 285HV Thyristor Flash? Mine only sometimes randomly fires... It charges up and the the light flashes green and red but never a solid green. Sometimes it will work fine with the triggers for about 5 times in a row then it won't work again for ages. I think it's probably just faulty but any insight would be great. Are there specific type of batteries I should be using...?
