Turns the trusty workhorse "283 into a useful strobist tool. The only downside is that since its just a potentiometer, there are no positive clicks for each setting, so you don't really know if that power level is what you're getting. But its pretty close. It also allows adjustment down to 1/64th power, better than the current 285 HV. "
- from an Amazon review. More 5-star reviews at B&H.
I got a 283 with AC adapter and the VP-1 module with some Canon film gear. Entire manual scanned here.

The Zeplina Power Module was created to power the worlds largest zeppelin, this piece was destined for stardom as an epic event in history. However, its extreme weight and the fact it was mounted at the front of the zeppelin meant that the nose couldn't get of the ground, even with the excessive amount of power it produced. The zeppelin cruised along, bum in the air, nose to the ground like a dog sniffing out the trail of dragged sausages. The zeppelin company refused to pay for the item, so I turned it into a lamp and this (almost) piece of history is for sale!
Here are my modular sculptures, I think they aren't as exciting as some of the other people's modules. Howevver, they aren't bad, and I got a very good grade for my efforts.
'Break the rules composition'
Find and shoot a rural or urban landscape that works with a central composition. Get the basics right in terms of settings, metering, exposure and focusing, and how you frame your shot.
It is not an uncommon sight to see balls floating out to sea. Further up there was a veritable tennis ball graveyard.

The City Space theme continues to inspire. I wanted to use the curved quarter panels as a windscreen, and by excellent luck had the matching curve plate in sand blue. From then on it was just a matter of mixing the design cues and colour scheme from the sets with my build.
Rather pleased with this, looks chunky and industrial near-future. The crane, while functional, can't lift the module without ripping itself apart. Oh well.
Probably won't take any more pictures of the module itself either, it's just an empty shell that seems to be more like a double-decker carriage on a scenic train than a science module. Some more work on that will be required, I think. But that's a problem for another time. I already have an idea for a larger build that will incorporate four of these modules.
