I have two Quantum Turbo Z's that I used with the 500ftz, and want to use them with the new flash, but Quantum hasn't tested one yet and won't confirm if they are compatible. I took the risk and hooked one up anyway, and it worked fine. Flash operated perfectly. and recycle was pretty much instantaneous I hope I haven't done any damage, but I didn't want to buy yet another battery pack when I have two perfectly good ones already.
I just wish Quantum would get their A into G and test the bloody thing. Max Paul said: >I bought the external battery pack for the 540 flash. It's the unit > made by Pentax that takes six C-cells.
