Lightning in a Backpack

Not a speedlight, but creating speedlight portability for a 1,000 watt-second strobe is some cool thinking. Check out the Sportsshooter article that details this clever assistant-portable flash idea.

What I am thinking: Using a Vagabond battery with an Alien Bee (like the cool ring light, for instance) could be a reasonably priced alternative if you want watt-seconds and mobility.

My only concern is the idea of walking around with an AC/battery system while not being grounded. Don't think I'd walk into the water wearing that backpack.
