I recently got the Interfit strobies radio triggers for off camera flash and while shooting a concert last week the flash kept going off even though I wasn't pressing the shutter on my camera. I had the same problem a few weeks earlier when shooting at a house party.
In both situations there was a complicated setup of electronic music equipment so I'm wondering if signals from the sound systems caused the flash to go off. Has anyone else had this problem with Interfit or other radio triggers?
It's not a major problem and I was still able to shoot the show. However I did miss a few shots because the flash was recharging when I was trying to shoot.

Very likely. They can be susceptible to interference.
They are one of the BEST cheap trigger in the market. Many have used them and hardly anyone have issues with them. I've been using them since they first came out and have ZERO missfire so far.
