AFSQ 2400ws Quartz Flashtubes fit all of the standard Flash Heads such as the Classic #001 and #002 Heads that had no modeling light feature. They also fit the new Extra Small Basic Heads HSBC or HSBQ.
This is a super duty flashtube for high power or Action Packs' fast flash duration.
The Flashtubes push/pull straight in/out and they will last for tens of thousands of flashes or one face down fall onto a hard surface.
Any of the Heads that have a modeling light would use the AFTE instead of this one.
AFTQ 2400ws Quartz Flashtubes fit all of the existing Lumedyne Flash Heads with or without the modeling light feature. They also fit in the new Extra Small Heads. They can be used at low power as well and can be used up to 2,400ws as that is the upper rating of this flashtube's performance.
The Flashtubes push/pull straight in/out and they will last for tens of thousands of flashes or one face down fall onto a hard surface.
Any of the Heads can use this flashtube, however, the modeling lamp itself is separate and this flashtube does not convert a non-modeling Head to have that feature.
This Head features a Quartz high power Flashtube for higher durability in heavy duty applications. The Basic Signature Head is very strong with the square metal shell but it's still only about one pound. It's sold separately from the Head Cables to allow you to select from 5 to 20 foot options. It works with any Lumedyne Head Cable or Head Extension Cable.
The Head originally does include the reflector, 2 diffusors, a metal snoot and the 2400ws Flashtube and a 25 watt modeling bulb.

The adjustable beep that indicates that it is ready again works with all of the Power Packs.

Deluxe Heads are compatible with some separate TTL Modules from Metz™ for limited digital cameras and most film cameras but not Canon™, Nikon™ or similar digital cameras.
The HQRC has a 2400ws Quartz Flashtube plus a modeling light. The Next Generation Heads look the closest to the old classic design because they have the round cylindrical shape to the body. The attached 3-7 foot long Coiled Head Cord will connect to any Lumedyne Power Pack. There are two sync jacks on the rear of the Head, both the household style and the mini-phone sockets are available.

This is the high power 2400ws Basic Head and is a great value. It has high quality circuits and uses the same flashtubes as the bigger Heads but in a smaller molded enclosure so they are also less expensive. They are electronically the same as the larger heads except for the lack of the household sync jack.
It is true that the "Basic" Extra Small Heads are the only Heads currently offered without a modeling light which is one of the reasons that it is less expensive than all the rest of the Lumedyne Heads. It also saves money by avoiding duplicating the Power Pack's ready indicator on the Head. This is the best value for a Flash Head that just flashes, and does it well.
This Head includes a grid and diffusor set with the reflector and 2400ws Quartz non-modeling Flashtube (AFSQ).
The HSMQ is the smallest 2400ws Flash Head with a modeling light in the whole world! It's not crazy expensive for what you get in this tiny Flash Head. It has the same high quality circuits and flashtubes and modeling bulb as the more expensive Heads, just in a smaller molded enclosure. The HSML is electronically the same as the larger heads except for the lack of the household sync connector.
This is an awesome Head for on a camera bracket or boom arm since it is so small and lightweight. If you wanted to use it on a light stand, it has twin 1/4-20 mounts for the stand and an accessory of your choice.
This Head includes a grid and diffusor set with the reflector, a Modeling Bulb (AMBR) and 2400ws Modeling Flashtube (AFTQ).
The X4BC goes between the Battery and most Lumedyne Power Packs to add 400ws of additional power to the Pack above it. It has a switch that controls: no boost, or add 200ws, or add the full 400ws to the Power Pack above it.
It is only about three inches tall and weighs about 2.5 lbs. and it will add an f-stop to the 400ws Packs since it doubles the available power. For the 200ws Pack, that's a stop and a half brighter. These are also stackable to go up as high as 2400ws by adding five of these to a 400ws Pack.
