Ok guys I got the Universal Skyports, it works so well with my 600 w/s Flashpoint monolight. But I have one problem I have no type of connection to hook it up with my Viv 285's or my Sunpack 383 because the pins are too large its (3.5mm). Please help me out guys, I beg of you

go to the elinchrom website - pretty sure they'll make almost any cable connection you need.

THe 383 comes with the proper cable. Digging it out of your box is the easiest option. You could use a standard (audio) stereo 3.5 to 2.5 plug however that may not work and you'd have to solder a bridge between the top two connections that are separated by plastic. I was actually going to try making one as a spare for my 383 because it's a pain carrying around different cables. If i do it i'll let you know how it goes.

when I got my skyports to connect to my sb800, it didn't come with the proper cord, but you can pick it up at any hunt's, or calumet etc. It was only $11.00
