No.... One might point out far more foolish to spend 2 plus years designing then redesigning a product that is claimed all over the net when it was released by the inventor to have a \"Cooling volume is about four times that of AB/WL. Yes, it\'s full of parts and is purposely very compact. The airflow design is highly evolved and has a very effective path through all components. Multiple heat sensors protect everything from overheat damage.\"
Then it shows up on the door step and you get a press release via email Warning: Operating Einstein for long periods of time with the modeling lamp set to full 250W with the unit pointing at a down angle can cause excess heating and possible damage to the Einstein.
The funny thing is a kindergartener could see that placing huge vents directly behind the flash tube and modeling light is going to channel all that heat directly into the \"highly evolved airflow design.\" I\'ve referenced all the changes you have itemized and shared so freely on the forum for V2. Did I miss somewhere that you said you are illuminating these poorly designed and placed vent holes?
Also since this change was in place about two months ago as you just stated... Did you stop sales and make sure each and every new one that was sent out had these stupid vents removed? (If you respond to anything I hope it\'s this question) Hurry Up and Buy Before the Price goes Up....
I have to hand it to you though... You do have the most well needed, state of the art customer service on the planet..... or any other planet at least in our galaxy..... You can send a product DOA to a customer and the next thing they are online posting what a outstanding experience it was. You can send out 1000\'s of Einstein\'s right now that are flawed with serious well documented issues and many of your customers are fighting to get them.
You have freely put down all kinds of manufactures all over the net and have for years. Well, i\'m not going to stand for it when you start in on me.
Here is one instance that comes to mind when the great guys at Radio Popper offered a new interface to control Paul\'s flashes.
Paul Buff wrote:
OK - they reverse engineered our 22 year old analog interface and added D to A converter and a phone jack to control it.
My general comment is that this company has a record of introducing products that are often vaporware.
Saying this to his customers about a well respected company that has introduced many advances in the industry. Vaporware..... from the guy that brought us the AB Max.
