..freakin big & seemed to last forever. Could have been 510V - that was over 30 years ago & I've had beers since then.

I do remember this teenage kid following me all over the place during one shoot & being a general pain in the butt by jumping into the frame and saying, "hey, take my picture, take my picture!!" I took one photo of him with the strobe set at 1/4 power & he thought it was so much fun he started doing it all over again.

If you remember the unit there was a button that only looked like a red rubber dot on top of the flash head so you could dump the charge when you were done shooting or test the unit. I flipped the switch to full power, the little bugger was about 3-feet away from me and I said, "hey - kid..." and he looked over at me & got a face full of light. Took him about 30 minutes to recuperate so his eyes worked right & he didn't see a blue flash tube on his retina.

He left me alone for the rest of the day...
