Thanks JC. I looked in the manuals are it says that there are two types of heads the s head is for standard gp shooting and the a head for stopping action. Then as far as the pack that socket a puts out so much power, has x amount of f stops and the flash last this long. Socket b puts out a different ammouny of power, has a different range off stops and a different flash duration iirc. So I guess if I put the right head on the right socket it will composite for the other and balance them out. I hustle glanced over it not comparing any of the numbers. The nice thing will be having both heads in case I want to stop action I can and having the gp head for most portrait, studio type work.
I'll play with both heads individually and the try each Ina different socket individually then try both plugged in to each sock and see what it does. I bought a pelican 1430 case but it only seams to have room for one head with a elichrom light stand modifier adapter hopefully I can repack and get bout heads and cables in like the tog that gave me the idea of getting the 1430 for the Quadra setup. Otherwise I'll use it for my qfalash and get a different case for the Quadra. Maybe somebody will be selling the two head Kit case at a good price. If not I might get a second battery and pack setup down the road and want to have room for two heads and two packs two cables and two light stand adapters plus an extension cable I'm thinking the 1550 would be about right and since the one im using for my camera and lenses plus is getting too small im thinking of upgrading to a second 1654 I'll use the 1554 for the elinchrom gear the 1435 for the Qflash gear the one 1654 for my Speedlite and stuff and the second for my camera and lenses plus other gear my 1660 is for my Speedotron gear and other studio stuff. I have one SKB golf case for modifiers and light stands and a NalPak for the rest of my light stands namely my cstands and booms and one of my bg kits iirc the other one is in the SKB with my store bought skylight and pc frame skylight. My tripods and go to light stands and other grip gear are in individual soft cases. I need a second SKB golf case to put those soft case kits in for security.
I use pelican cases as I live in a RV, fifth wheel toy hauler and want my gear to survive if I have another accident that destroys the camper. I need another 1660 for my reloading gear. I also need something yet to be developed by pelican or any of the hard case manufactors to put my guns in that will fit where I keep them. I thought pelican was on to something when they came out with the two armory cases but iirc one is molded for ar only and the other is foam for ars I wish they would make the cases as designed without the foam or pre molded plastic and use a padded divider so the long guns could be a variety of models and you open it up and have the two sides holding your long gun collection or at least part of it.
