Just thought I should ask your thoughts on this ebay product. Could use it for not so high paying projects.

Not sure how it equates to say 3 speedlights on one big-boy bracket . I work in manual mode only with absolutely no need for ttl.

fleabay are usually "get what you pay for" products. If you google this flash or search amazon, you'll find many reviews

Looks like typical eBay cheapy stuff; if used carefully, and you don't mind colour shifts at different power levels, it will be okay for home studio use but the umbrella bracket concerns me; it looks like the umbrella is only held in by a light spring metal clip. That I do NOT see working out well.
