http://www.photogenicpro.com/store/item … MENT_ID=83 anyone ever use these? i know the other photogenic units are top notch and in my opinion the best mono lights you can get but ive never even seen these cheaper units in person. just wondering if anyone has them and what(if any) the drawbacks are to these vs. going with a similar alien bee setup. thanks Nate Dec 05 05 08:57 pm Link For that price I'd get a single alienbee unit, you'd get constant lighting plus a strobe.

Only drawback is the modeling light is only 40 w. Alien Bees are probably the best bang for the buck.

What you can't put into them is the more powerful 150 watt bulb used by their bigger cousin of the same power output.

I use the AlienBees in studio and they can take a banging I have dropped I mean knocked them over with the lights on... and still worked.. the light boxes are nice and the power is plenty for almost anything I like Speedatrons better but hey they work Vagabond 300 that solves that portable problem for Alien Bees other thread on Alienbees hehe Dec 06 05 01:01 pm Link what do you guys mean when you say alien bees provide better support? if had a problem with the photogenic i can go to my local dealer but if i get a bee unit i have to call/email someone. how is that better?
