I'm selling my Ikelite Fiber-Optic Converter for DS Substrobes and LED Triggers. I used this to attach a fiber optic sync cable to my Ikelite DS161 Strobe (also for sale) An upgrade to their 4401 Fiber Optic Adapter, Ikelite's Fiber-Optic Converter does everything that the previous model did and is also sensitive enough to work with internal electrical-to-optical LED flash triggers. These triggers are found in Sea & Sea and Nauticam housings, among others. The converter adapts the electrical bulkhead of any Ikelite DS strobe into a fiber-optic port. Updated electronics make this converter capable of accurately reading the LED signals for fast and reliable triggering. Like the original Fiber Optic Adapter, it is also compatible with any system where the camera's built-in flash can be detected by a fiber-optic cable. The converter automatically configures itself for compatibility with both pre-flash and non pre-flash camera modes, so there's no setting of small switches or confusion over number of pre-flashes. Simply turn on your strobe and take one picture to configure. This device is a non-TTL, manual exposure unit capable of supporting a single strobe. It works with Ikelite's DS50, DS51, DS125, DS160, and DS161 Substrobes. The converter features a depth rating of 295'. Converts the electrical bulkhead of any Ikelite DS strobe into a fiber-optic port. Offers all the capabilities and functionality of the earlier 4401 Fiber Optic Adapter. Features heightened sensitivity for use specifically with Sea & Sea, Nauticam, and other housings with internal electrical-to-optical LED flash triggers. These devices translate camera's electrical signals into a series of LED flashes, which are much dimmer than traditional built-in camera flash. Updated electronics make this converter capable of accurately reading the LED signals for fast and reliable triggering.

Selling my Ikelite DS161 strobe / video light combo. It comes complete with the smart charger, as well as a 1" Ball Mount Mark II and removable diffuser with protective cap. If you're using a fiber optic sync cable, I'm also selling my Ikelite Fiber-Optic Converter for DS Substrobes and LED Triggers here too. The DS161 features a depth rating of 328'. The DS161 is offered here with an NiMH battery pack, a smart charger with a US/North American plug, and a The strobe has a power rating of 160 watt-sec and a guide number of 38-76' at ISO 100, depending on whether you're underwater or above water. It provides a wide 90° angle of coverage, which is increased to 100° when you add the supplied diffuser for softening the light output. The 4800K color temperature is even warmer than daylight and restores hues that get absorbed underwater, bringing vibrancy and color accuracy back to your images. When combined with a compatible TTL system, the DS161 automatically adjusts brightness to provide ideal TTL flash exposure--whether you're shooting at macro, portrait, or wide-angle focal lengths. Manual exposure mode is also available to give you greater control. The strobe is equipped with an Ikelite ICS-5 bulkhead connector, which is also present on many Ikelite underwater camera housings, and requires a sync cord. Additionally, you can use the optional #4401 Fiber Optic Adapter to convert the bulkhead to a fiber-optic cable port for manual exposure. The NiMH battery pack features 7.2V of output power and a 3300mAh capacity. It provides up to 225 full-power flashes per charge, with a recycle time of 1.5 sec. The bright, concentrated, 5W LED aiming light provides ample illumination for use as a focusing aid or a nighttime dive light. The LED turns off and on when the strobe is fired, keeping your photos free of bright spots. Total selling price for everything is $795 USD - retail price $949
