How many of you have you used the Godox / Flashpoint 1200 double extension? Or even who's used a normal single 1200ws strobe. Any wisdom or ideas you can share?

Looking for feedback before tossing away a Flashpoint H1200B extension head. I got one from KEH in a bundle noted "as-is untested" for $95.00 altogether. So gaining $400 worth in 3 components, whether I keep the 1200 part rests more on whether there's practical benefits. The other components were my main interest, all XPLOR 600 stuff and all the 600 stuff worked. I don't have a 1200 bulb to test with though. Wondering whether a $195 bulb is worth the investment to keep the twin connector extension head. For just over $200, I could probably buy a used QS1200ii, although I'd need to trash what's probably a fully functional extension head.

So that's why I'm curious about other's thoughts on whether a single unit vs. twin "bodies" w/ connector. Or, whether 1200ws is worth keeping around for infrequent shoots, for whatever benefits.

I have used it a few times with 2 XPLOR600. I could shoot much faster compared to 1 XPLOR600 as I set them both to 1/2 power or 1/4 power.
