The Jr2 receiver's simplified, intuitive backlit display works on an easy two-button - Menu/Select principle that indicates power level, local, or remote control and remaining battery power. The receiver gets 8-10 hours of run time on two AAA batteries and weighs 1.9 oz. A 3.5mm sync cable, phono plug adapter, and 2.5mm adapter are included.

The Jr2 Receiver can be set to one of 16 different radio channels

The Jr2 receiver can be set to one of four groups, allowing for maximum flexibility of your lighting setup. By setting different lights to different groups, they may be adjusted separately. All lights on a given group will be adjusted together.

In Remote mode, the power level of your attached lighting device is controlled remotely from your transmitter (purchased separately). The Jr2 Receiver will control the attached light, setting it to the power level commanded by your transmitter

In Local mode, the power level of your attached lighting device is controlled directly on the device, for example, the display on the back of your flash or the slider on your studio light

Related Questions and Answers

A: Yes it will.

Q: 2. Does this trigger work with the Canon r5?

A: Yes.

Q: 3. Will this receiver work with an older rp transmitter? I lost one of the rp cubes but see that you dont make that model anymore.

A: Unfortunately no. I bought an older version of this thinking it will work with my RP JR2 setup (1 JR2 transmitted, 2 JR2 receivers). The older RP JR1 received did not sync or recognize the RP JR2 transmitter. Recommend by like for like in this case.

Q: 4. Can this Jr2 transmitter trigger Jrx receiver?

A: I think it can, but the folks at Radio Popper are super helpful I would call them to verify!

Q: 5. I've read that photographers will use these poppers in conjunction with Nikon's $230 optical slave for better results, what say you?

A: The RadioPopper Nano Receiver is a radio wireless sync and does not work with an optical slave.

Q: 6. what do I need to use the tx with slt-a65 and rx with hvl-f42am? ( besides the tx & rx)

A: The transmitter has a standard hotshoe. To use that with the Sony a65 you need a transmitter two adapters.RadioPopper Nano TransmitterB&H # RANANOT Mfr # NANO-Thttp://bhpho.to/1yMjB7b This is for the camera.Sony Auto-Lock Shoe AdapterB&H # SOADPAMA Mfr # ADPAMAhttp://bhpho.to/1gjWYR5This is for the flashSony Multi-Interface Shoe AdapterB&H # SOADPMAA Mfr # ADPMAAhttp://bhpho.to/1cjK16q

Q: 7. How come there is a big difference in battery life specs between B&H and Radiopopper?B&H stated: Battery Life: Approx. 100 hours total power-on timeRadiopopper stated: Battery Life: Approx 8-10 Hours total power-on time

A: It is a web error and the batteries last on the receiver about 8-10 hours.

Q: 8. Will this work with the Metz mecablitz 52 AF-1 digital Flash for Sony Multi-Interface Shoe Cameras for TTL?

Q: 9. Can I still sync Nikon SB900/800 remote flashes thru the camera when using the Nano to fire them?

[TTL] I have used this to trigger multiple studio lights in my studio and out on location and it has not let me down! 5

[TTL] This receiver performs as expected. There are no instructions shipped with it but they are easily found on the company's website. 5

[2x AAA] A perfect pairing to the Jr2 transmitter. Now includes a hot-shoe! Easy visual controls to set group & channel. Works flawlessly. Now using AA batteries is a huge plus over the more expensive CR123. 5

[TTL] I purchased these Jr2's because of Pocket Wizard having RF noise interference with the Canon 580EX ii speedlights. These things work just as good as Pocket Wizard and are very extremely reliable up to 300' away making a great alternative. At first I was having some firing problems, but I realized it was the batteries. 5

[16] Use for location and studio shoots. Love controlling all my lights from the camera.Love the new improvements over older Jrx line. Like the four channels over just three and the LCD screen over dials. Changing battery from Cr123 to more common AAA batteries is a major improvement. Very simple to set up and use with just about any type of flash. 5

[2x AAA] I have had the Jr2 triggers for a couple weeks now and so far they have been very reliable. I like being able to adjust the power of my remote flash from the transmitter. I use the transmitter in the hotshoe when I am shooting wedding formals and portraits and then I use a PC Sync cable and mount it to the bottom of my camera via the 1/4-20 screw for off camera flash during the reception. I have had Radio Poppers in the past and they too performed well. 5

[2x AAA] I use RadioPopper's JrX system for multi-strobe setups in product lighting and real estate interiors, and remote lighting inside Ancestral Puebloan ruins. Control of strobe output power at the camera lets me change a shot's 'look' on the fly, without having to visit each flash individually. It's the main reason I use RadioPoppers over my old Pocket Wizards. The only problem is the 1/8 stereo cables between RPCubes and JrX receivers - they can give bad connections and unreliable triggering. They've always been one point of failure I wanted to remove. The Jr2 receiver eliminates the RPCubes and their cables. Now I have reliable triggering and no worries. The Jr2 receiver's 10-hour battery life isn't a problem either. I use multiple sets of rechargeable AAA NiMH batteries, and I figure if a real estate interior session lasts longer than three hours, I'm in trouble. Battery power for my strobes and the RadioPoppers runs out about the same time anyway. I simply make sure I charge all the batteries before a shoot. Highly recommended, along with the Jr2 transmitter. 5

[0.3 lb] The Radiopopper JR2 is reliable and easy to use. The fact that it is backward-compatible with my JRx Studio receivers means I don't have to shell out a bunch of money to significantly upgrade my whole setup. I can also use my older JRx transmitter along with the new JR2 transmitter to remotely fire my camera's shutter so I no longer have to use Pocketwizards for remote triggering.I have dealt with Radiopopper, the company, on a couple of occasions and I found them to be a first class customer service organization that stands behind their products. One time was regarding an out-of-warranty repair. Another time was a firmware update on some PX triggers I have. Both times the repairs were performed quickly and at little or no cost to me. I wish all companies could offer support like that. 5

[TTL] The Radio Popper Nano receiver is very easy to use and is versatile. You can attach a flash directly to the receiver or plug it into your studio light. The receiver can also attach directly to a light stand. The Radio Popper Nano is available at a great price as well. 5
