Westcott has yet another solid holiday promotion with its 3-strobe set. For just a smidgen under $300, you get quite a big kit:
Heck, a pretty basic 200Ws strobe from Westcott will set you back over $200. And they’re selling three 300Ws strobes for $300? That’s what I call a deal.
You can find the Strobelite Holiday Gear Set at B&H Photo, Amazon and Adorama.
Note that the B&H product page currently says a “150Ws” strobe in the description, but it has the correct model number to the Holiday Gear Set (653H). I’m shooting them an email for clarification, but they’ve also got it price $20 less than Amazon and Adorama.
UPDATE: I just confirmed with B&H that the description was incorrect on their site and they are updating it to show that it does include (3) 300Ws strobes.

The Vagabond Mini Lithium looks downright tasty for those who use AC monolights on a regular basis. This new AC converter uses a lithium battery to power your monolights for several hundred shots in the field.
While the Vagabond Mini Lithium was designed with Alienbees monolights in mind, it is also compatible with third party monolights. There are plenty of other tech specs to read up on, but the best news of all is the price.
The Vagabond Mini Lithium is set to ship with a battery, charger, shoulder strap and light stand mounting clamp for $239.95. Additional batteries will cost $89.95.
