The Elinchrom D-Lite 400W/s RX 4 Flash Head raises the bar on the capabilities of a lightweight, portable strobe. The auto-sensing, multi-voltage flash D-Lite RX 4 recognizes any AC power source from 90-260VAC, allowing power variability over 5.0 stops in 1/10 stop increments. Recycling is a lightning-fast 0.35-1.6 sec. (115V) with flash durations as short as an action-stopping 1/800 sec at full power. But that's just the beginning.

The D-Lite 400W/s RX 4 is packed with professional and convenience features usually found in flash heads twice its price. Forget about tripping over PC cords. Although this head accepts one it also has a built-in EL-Skyport Receiver with eight frequency channels that can handle four distinct groups of flashes. Separate purchase of the EL Skyport ELS Speed Transmitter not only allows you to trigger your flash at distances up to 393' but gives you control of power on/off, modeling light functions and Speed Sync activation. Free software for Mac and PC computers is available, providing additional features such as Flash-Delay for strobing effects. Add an optional Wi-Fi module to the transmitter and you can use specially designed apps that allow full remote control via your for iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch.

D-Lite 400W/s RX 4's bayonet mount accepts all Elinchrom accessories and softboxes up to 53" (135 cm). It comes with a power cord with a U.S. plug, sync cord, flash tube and protective cap. The included 120V 100W modeling lamp must be swapped out when using the unit in nominal 230V electrical environments.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work with a canon eos 250d? Even the hot shoe included?

A: Yes, the Elinchrom Skyport transmitter included with the Elinchrom D-Lite RX 4/4 Softbox to Go Kit would be compatible with DSLR cameras such as the Canon EOS 250D.

Q: 2. What is the color temperature for this unit? Is it the same as the dlite 200ws? And does the temperature change with increase in flash power?

A: According to Elinchrom, all of the current D-Lite RX monolights have a flash tube balance for 5500 Kelvin when the units are set to full power. Unfortunately, there is no information regarding what the color temperature would be at lower power settings.

Q: 3. Can you use a canon st e3 rt trigger to fire the strobes? Also is this alot more powerful than a 600 rt?

A: Most speed-lights are no more than 65 watts. The D-Lite RX One is 100 watts. It is around double the power. It does not work with the Canon ST-E3-RT Speedlite Transmitter. The built in receiver works with the Elinchrom - EL-Skyport Transmitter Plus and the Elinchrom EL-Skyport Transmitter Pro.

Q: 4. Will this strobe work the following: Impact Luxbanx Duo Small Strip Softbox (12 x 36 )?

A: Hi,Your best bet is to ask the team that sells Impact. They most likely sell a ring for their soft boxes that works with Elinchrom.Regards,Will H

Q: 5. Can the optic slave function be turned on and off? I want to use this light kit in a place where we will have 3 portrait stations in an open area near by and don't want other portrait stations setting off this set.

A: The optical slave in this monolight can be switched off.

Q: 6. Does this accept Bowens mount soft boxes?

A: Not directly, no. The Elinchrom D-Lite RX One Flash Head uses the Elinchrom mount, not the Bowens S-mount, for connecting light modifiers to this light fixture. As such, in order to use a Bowens S-mount light modifier on the Elinchrom D-Lite RX One Flash Head, it is recommended to purchase the GTX STUDIO Bowens to Elinchrom Flash Head Adapter, B&H # GTGSAR1424 • MFR # GS-AR-1424. https://bhpho.to/3Gc7hWG

Q: 7. Can this be used as a slave? I would be firing an alien bee.

A: Yes; this head has an optical slave.

Q: 8. Will D-Lite 400W/s Flash Heads connect with pocketwizard TT5 transceivers?

A: I would have to say yes. Just for the fact I do have this light and I use the pocket wizards on them. The TT 5, since it is a transceiver will transmit the signal to the light and allow it to activate, all you have to do is connect the cords from the transceiver to the light.I have not done it myself with the TT 5, but I am sure it will work. There should be connecting cords that came with the TT 5, if not B & H photo has them on stock. Just ask anyone in the lighting department and they will direct you to the proper cord that you will need to make things work. Let me know if this information helps you.

Q: 9. Is it right that it has an additional slot for bigger umbrella shafts? I want to use it with the Westcott Mega JS Apollo 50''x50''.

A: Yes it Does but is really flimsy/bad design

Q: 10. I love using this lighting set. Question: When I use three elinchrom flashheads, they sound not together really quickly. Is there anything I need to check? Is there a manual download for the trigger plus? I found a two page manual on the elinchrom website.

A: What sound? Fan, beep? If they are at different power levels they may sound different.

[1x Monolight] I bought the d-lite rx flash head to compliment the two BRX 500 lights that I already have. I have found the light perfect for hair lighting. The product is performing exactly as I expected. Elinchrom is reliable and simple to set up and to use. If you are considering a purchase you will not be disappointed 5

[Audio & Visual] I had this lights since 2016 and they still do the job. Only one light misfires, it's been doing it since I got them but I'm too lazy to send it back for repair. I never had problems with the modeling light or color temperature. Even though they look cheap (plastic casing) don't get fool by it. These light will take the beat. I work with them for 10 hrs straight, sure the fan will start from time to time but I never had problem shooting (except for the ones I already mentioned but it's like on miss every 100 or so shots, not a biggie). I totally recommend this brand. However if your business keep growing and you need more punch they you may need to go to Profoto so start saving. 5

[Yes] Have been working with studio strobes since the 1970's. Todays cameras don't need all that Norman or Speedotron power any more. For my small home-studio 2 of these kits (4 strobes) work fine. The Kit is actually less expensive than 2 stand-alone D-Lites sold separately! I got two kits as 4 of these strobes more than covers my 20' X 20' studio. Super easy to set up and understand how the trigger works. Elinchrom equals quality. 5
