Closed Backscatter mini strobe / macro flash MF-1, MF-2 or similar

[Curious_George]

I’m looking for one of these strobes or something comparable, including the optical cable and generic slave connector. Anyone got one they aren’t using?

I looked at another one for sale on this forum, but it didn’t come with the optical cable which is an expensive piece to add.

Anyone with advice or suggestions is also appreciated.

Thanks, George

Skip the expensive ones.
I've been using these for years without issue:

Divtek Fiber Optic Cable

I have 2 x S&S YS-02s compact strobes which are gathering dust, no optical connector. I haven't thought about a price yet but a downside is I am based in Australia.....

What camera are you planning to use it with?

I’ve got a pair of MF-1 flashes I’ve been planning to sell, 2 new batteries and could include fiber optic cables. You mentioned a slave sensor, is that the light pipe for the mf-2 you’re referring to?

I think he means the camera flash hotshoe LED trigger.
