FINAL PRICE REDUCTION BEFORE EBAY AUCTION -- $850
Selling my Pro-6 Freeze 2400W pack. It has some cosmetic scuffs but works great. Adjustments are accurate (1/3-stops for A and B channels, 1/6-stops for master variator). A robust workhorse with a fast flash duration and fast recycle.

$850 + $45 shipping (U.S.). I'll pay the 3% PayPal.

PM me.

If you send me your email, I can send you the manual. In the meantime, there's info here:

http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?topic=51282.0

And here's info on the Pro-6 vs the Acute 2400:

acute is smaller and lighter - 13 vs. 26lbs, but slower recycle and longer flash durations - means less ability to freeze movement. Acute at full power is like shooting at 1/320s vs 1/1000s with pro-6. Acute takes almost twice as long to recycle at full power. some people tend to think of acute series as "economy" vs "professional". use them both and you decide.

acute 2 2400 - flash duration 1/320–1/1800 sec. - recycle 0.17–2.9 sec. (117V)
pro-6 2400 freeze - 1/1000-1/5300 sec. recycle .15 -1.55 sec (117V) (Note -- I've been told by a Profoto repairman / technician that this is optimistic; on both of my Pro-6 packs, recycle at full power takes more like 2.25 sec)

the pro-6 has two sync sockets so you could connect a meter and camera or wireless receiver at the same time. the pro-6 has regular, fast, and turbo, so if you are on a 15amp breaker, you can slow the recycle down to keep from blowing the breaker. i think the acute has only fast or slow - so, only two settings.

the pro-6 has a auto bracket mode that will vary the output by 1/3, 1/2, or 2/3 - Three exposures - Norm, plus and minus. mostly only useful for film. Also, the color temp can be varied using the Master Variator - each 1/6 increment reduces the temp 50Kelvin - with a total down-scale of approx 400K. also probably more useful for film than digital, unless used to balance it with another pack.

Yep -- that will go on it. You can typically find used Pro heads for about $900-$1000 in good condition. I'm keeping mine (plus my other pack).
