I agree with you, but the manual explicitly says in bold letters not to use any cable but the supplied one, I guess it has some kind of special fuse in there so you don't blow the thing up on accident.
I'd rather not take my chances right now lol.
Elinchrom seems to like to sell their own proprietary accessories . . like non standard 7mm umbrella, etc. RX600 and D Lite uses the same power cable as any other light - standard IEC computer style cable - international standard. I'd say they are just trying to make extra income. But, then again, they may indeed have put the fuse in the cable . . . who knows. But that would be contrary to IEC rules unless they also use a different AC socket too,
