I have Balcar and Normans flash gear, the place I use to repair them, dosen't anymore, does anybody know where in Melbourne or anywhere in Australia that repairs this gear now, I'm getting a bit desperate as both kits have now packed it in and I'm without lights.
Cheers

Yikes!-- so David at Borge's does not do them anymore--are you sure? I have Balcars and always found them to service no problem.
There must be a tech somewhere -- what about Ken Prentice?-he used to be Balcar Aust-- Kelly at Sun Studios will know how to contact him.
let's know how you get on.
Good Luck,

Thanks for that Des, Borges is where I originally bought them and Patrick was their repair guy here in Melbourne but sadly he died over a year ago now, they actually have my Concept B3 pack at the moment (actually they've had it for two years) and can't seem to repair it, it's a bit of a nightmare really, I used to have a good relationship with them, it's a bit strained of late.
I'm not familiar with Sun studios, where are they?

Hi Jaime,
Ah stooopid Moi!--yes yes-Patrick--not David-I remember an Andrew sort of a Munchkin_Ha!
Oh dear-- ummm Borge is still advertising Balcar bits--I cannot believe he is leaving Balcar owners here
in the bloody lurch!!
OK Ken Prentice will know a solution I'm sure-- call Kelly here--he used to be Baltronics ( now Sun studios)

Ok thanks for that, I'll give him a try, believe me NZ is a lot better than the possibilty of sending stuff to France.
