Pulsar Radio Trigger System  

With the Esprit Gemini you are free from mains power cables.
With the Pulsar Radio Trigger system you can free yourself from
sync cables too!

This multifunctional device can be used to trigger flash units, film
and digital cameras and light meters up to 100m away. 
Because Pulsar is a  radio transmitter, rather than IR, it allows
for triggering around corners or through walls and is not affected
by high ambient light situations. Choose from four individual
channels and six studio selectors, each providing a unique ID for
different flash devices or combine them to trigger all equipment
within a given setup or studio.  

Because of its low-voltage operation, it is perfect for 
digital cameras. Each unit can be used as either a 
transmitter or receiver and operates from two AAA 
batteries.
