I got a power inverter which now enables me to use my new flash anywhere I have a car battery. I'm planning on buying a separate battery, but in the mean time I'm happy to use the one in the car and use a 25m extension cable for extra distance.
Here's a quick pic of my set up...

Does your Dad never ask why you're opening the garage door to take a photo?

A breakdown of what it cost:
Lencarta smartflash 200 head & standard reflector: £120
Stand: £20
600w pure sine wave power inverter: £88
Total: £228
Compare that to the Safari kit and that's a saving of £572.

The garage door is basically my front door. We always come in an out of it. It's the closest door to the driveway
Neither me nor my dad have a front door key. Just garage keys.
I'm sure i've explained this before...

Nope, not been out. Was going to pop out and get some pics with the passat, but decided to see if my mate with his A4 Avant wanted some pics done instead. It a lot better looking than the Passat

There's a key on the inside of the front door, so we open it and use it if we need to.
