My New to Me Broncolor Primo 3200 J by Nokton48, on Flickr

I have been watching the Broncolor Primo 4 3000 Joule Heads go, finally got -this one- with a Good Looking Flashtube. I'm ordering a Pyrex Dome with UV Coating. I can use this flash head on my two Primo 4 Packs, each puts out 3000 Joules in one POP into one head, so that is great for me with slow emulsions.

New to Me Broncolor Primo 4 3200 Joules came without Pyrex cover. Ordered one new from Peartree Photo in UK. Flashtube Cover required since head is fan cooled. All together a little over $400, the heads and modifiers are what make big strobe outfits expensive. And I am trying to do this on a budget. World's finest equipment at a good discount.

New to Me Broncolor Pulso 4 Flash Head by Nokton48, on Flickr

I offered 340 British Pounds for this Broncolor Pulso 4 3000J Flash Head, and it's now mine. Needs a Pyrex Dome, MPEX stocks them $129 so I'm planning to pick up a few more for future. Also I picked up two 3000J Pulso 4 Flashtubes from China, so now I'm thinking of building two more Pulso 4's from pieces/parts. A good way to save money and complete the outfit. These Pulso Heads were their top of their line, $1299 each back in the day. All my Broncolor Heads fit all of my Broncolor Power Packs, which is a very good thing. One of these heads through my Octobox150 with Extra Diffusion, gives me F32 with slow film. And everything runs off of 120V. Also I've stocked up on 120V 250W Modeling Bulbs, $8.99 on Amazon, the European ones are 220V 650W, can't use those but easy to exchange.
