The Quantum FreeXWire system consists of several units: a Transceiver FW10W, a transmitter FW9T and two receivers, the FW8R and the FW7Q. The scope of these units is amazing: from simply firing a flash unit or a camera remotely to full TTL control up to 500 feet away!  All units are small and lightweight and offer a choice of 8 channels.

Quantum professional dealer and UK Official repairer Turbo Battery Packs
QB1+, QB1COMPACT and QB2, are low voltage battery packs that replace the normal batteries by connecting into the battery compartment of the flash unit.
TURBO T3, TURBO SLIM COMPACT and TURBO BLADE batteries supply high voltage power and connect into a special high voltage in-put socket that can be found on all professional flash units such as the Nikon SB900 and Canon 580EX, whilst the display and other functions are powered by normal batteries. The Turbo range offers the ULTIMATE in flash-recycling times: from 1 second at full power! Many digital cameras can also be powered by Quantum batteries.
 
Q-Flash Wireless control system
At Fixation we have a specialist team of fully-trained Quantum technicians who can repair all Quantum products (Q-Paq and some RadioSlave repairs need to be returned to the Factory, facilitated through the UK distributor with great efficiency!)  When battery cells are replaced, we impose a battery recycling charge of £3 to cover our costs in disposing of the old cells in an environmentally responsible manner.
