Ordered a Vivitar 283. Waiting for it in the mail. Apparently, it has "China" written on it and based on my background reading, this should have a safer lower voltage across its hot contact terminals, as opposed to to around 200V in the ones made in Japan (the earlier ones). But I also know that I really to measure the voltage myself to be sure about it. Will get back regarding that when I receive the unit. Looks to be interesting flash to work on for mods. There are quite few web pages discussing how to add/modify features.
