YS-110a owner question

[Guamrider 0]

I currently have an Inon s-2000 and need to get one more strobe. I'm considering the Sea & Sea ys-110a as it has a focus light and has a higher guide number. I use home made loc line arms and the specs say it weights -.04 ounces u/w.

 

I plan on using a Stix float on the arm. Not that I doubt manufacturers claims but is the strobe really that light?

Thanks for any help on this.

I have pair of 110a and yes, it does float underwater.

Yes, it does float underwater but you still need the Stix float to balance your camera. i have pair of 110a and still need the Stix Float not even at Marco set up...for my WA too... may be i add weight on my Dome

Thanks for confirming the weight. I have a new Sony NEX-5 and Nauticam housing that I'll be using with it.

Nice setup CK.

I'm using poor man's version of stix float.
