Perhaps the "S" stands for wireless sync only, without control of power output?

I think it may just refer to the integrated sync. The output controls coming from the Remote or software.

Air Sync built-in. There will be different iterations of depending on the battery type desired (lithium ion or lead acid) and also a version that includes both Air Sync and PocketWizard built-in.

These generators don't have digital power controls, so the full Air System can't be implemented on them.  I'm working on an alternate remote variator system that involves walkie talkies and chimpanzees.
