This could just be off the wall, but the Speedo sockets are polarized. I know from personal experience that if the polarization is not observed, misfires or non-firing will occur. The PW likely is also polarized, so you must make sure all the circuits are aligned electrically. Also, there are several varieties of miniplugs with subtle differences in the stem. If the wrong choice is made, erratic firing will occur. Lastly, double check your soldering job in the plugs. You could have a bad connection/broken wire, etc. My own experience is with both Brownline and Blackline packs and Quantum Radio Slaves. Once I had everything properly polarized, firing was very reliable. Curiously, I also used side-pack mounting, employing Velcro, but I don't think the side mounting played into the reliability. I marked one side of all sockets, plugs and cables with a red dot so that in the heat of the battle, regardless of which combination of packs, cables and slaves I used, polarization would be observed. I really like the Speedos. Enormous power, built like a brick outhouse and practically bulletproof. The only downside is size and weight.
