I'm not going to jump on the bandwagon quite so quickly.
I have the V2s which were supposed to be an improvement over the original version and have had problems. Mine don't misfire, they fire all on their own as soon as the speedlight gets to full power.
I need to see some real life reviews of the V4 triggers.

Hi guys,
I was wondering if someone could tell me which U.S. online vendors sell the Cactus V4? I read from this thread that they are taking orders today! Please let me know where I can purchase.

Thanks!!

There aren't. You order them from the gadget infinity website directly using this link that bhursey posted. The total is $45.95 which includes the $5.00 for shipping.

Sounds interesting, but like nowonder, I will wait for some reviews first.

Wow they went fast. :P Glad I ordered them right away. I saw this news also they are delaying shipping by one day.


16-03-2009
Shipment delay for one day. OUR APOLOGY!

Owing to unexpected number of orders for Cactus V4, our shipping system has broken down in the morning. It is under repair at the moment and should be back to normal very soon. Your order will experience a one-day delay and will be shipped tomorrow. Please accept our sincerely apology for any inconvenience caused.


I guess we overwhelmed the system :P

I ordered mine right after I read your post. Did you get an email stating the delay or just checked out the website?
