I had the internals replaced in a second one of mine last month. Good thing the exchange rate to the yen is favourable at the moment.

Two of my others are playing up on occasion, refusing to do a full dump (the red ready light doesn't even go out). I've found by switching them to sTTL (first click on) I can get a full dump, no pre-flash out of them. After a while I switch back to manual and they work again. It's frustrating, but manageable and from my research I haven't found anything that's going to work better. The weight of the other brands really puts me off, especially when I consider lumping 5 of them into a cave. I look forward to a strobe that runs on lithium.

Someweher deep in the Manual should be stated that INON recoemmends to service the strobes every 2 or 3 Years.

I can't remember right now.
