Q&A’s
I have a 400Ws flash and, I would like to know if I can use a 200Ws flash tube with it as I would like to go below the minimum power of my current flash?
- The flash power is stored in capacitors inside the flash head and are not produced by the flash tube itself, so using a using a flash tube with a lower wattage capacity could result in blowing the flash tube blowing and cause damage to your flash head.
If you would like to reduce the power of your flash even further, there are a few things that you can do:
- You could move your lights further back from your subject (doubling the distance of your light will reduce your light’s exposure by approximately two stops).
- You can add extra diffusion to your modifier (e.g. diffusion material from a softbox, or the diffuser inside a 5in1 reflector etc.).
- You can use Neutral-Density (or ND) gel filter on your modifier which you can purchase from most theatre supply stockists. (Please note: do not place ND Gel too close to the modelling bulb as it could prove to be a fire hazzard).
- You could use an ND filter on your camera’s lens to reduce the amount of light entering your lens.
Any of the above techniques, by themselves or in combination will enable you to further reduce the light output from your lights.
How do I replace the Fuses in the LUMI400?
- To access the fuses in the LUMI400, you will need to remove the panel which is placed just above the plug socket. To do this, there is a little tab just on the inside of the plug socket which you will need to pop open with a screwdriver to make the fuses visible. There should be two fuses inside the light, the main fuse is at the front and the spare fuse is towards the back. You can simply switch these fuses and this should resolve your issue.
How do I change the Power display mode on my LUMI400?
- In order to change this, you will need to hold down the Set Button on your trigger for approximately 2 seconds, this should then change the setting to your desired choice.
I would like to know if, your strobe is compatible with Godox remotes ?
- I can confirm that the Godox triggers will be compatible with the LUMI400 II flashes as long as you use the Godox triggers that operate on the 2.4GHz frequency.

Amazon Review
Having been a studio based owner photographer now retired I just do Passport and ID photos from home based studio. My last Elinchrom died I need a replacement Asap, I picked the Pixapro 400 arrived in 2-3 days after a couple of quick tests I am really pleased with the results of the finished prints and the quality and power of the Flash Head, easy to use quick to change settings with good visual display consistent outputs. It seems well made and comes with everything you need for an instant start.
Five Stars
Great product. Very happy with the quality.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
PIXAPRO® LUMI400 1200Ws Three Head Kit with Boom Stand, Trigger and Receivers (400/400/400)
Lights and wireless controllers are excellent. Softboxes are good if a bit difficult to assemble the first time. Light stands could be more sturdy as they flex a little too much for my liking. I was surprised that two of the lights did not have reflectors which would have been included if the lights had been purchased separately. I bought them afterwards. Overall though very good value for money.
Great
Great product for a reasonable price
