Hello all,
I own a set of catus v4 and two receiver since 5 month maybe, I did not use them very often. Today I build my DIY beauty dish for my Sb800, so I was excited to try it out, got all my equipment , set up the v4 and then nothing happen when I shoot, so I tested both receiver, check the chanel and nothing work. I tought my sb800 was dead then I tryed it without the V4 with the optical slave and it work well. I also tryed the V4 with my sb25 and this on fire.
Anyone know what seem to be wrong?

Yes I have Alkaline in both receiver and both work fine with my sb25 but
my sb800 just wont work with it. If I use my sb800 without the cactus v4 system it work well on the su-4 mode and the CLS system.
Do the sb800 require more juice from the batterie than the sb25?
I aslo saw the little light blink on the receiver when I was shooting, so
I think the signal go in there but it dont get the flash to fire.

Ok so I bought new Alkaline batteries todays and no luck, the sb25 work like a charm with my set of cactus and my sb800 wont fire. So I guess I wont buy from them anymore, and I wont use my v4 combine with my sb25 in fear of braking it. Ill save money and buy something more reliable.
