Some of you may well be aware of this, but it was news to me, and I may have learnt the expensive way.
Apparently if you store your flash unit for some time without using it, the capacitors can go bad. The correct thing to do is when you go to use it, is to gradually increase the power from minimum, so they have time to sort them selves out.
This applies to speed lights as well as the larger units too.
I'm waiting for the call from the repair guys.....
