I got them off Ebay. The seller purchased them from the Eaton's bankruptcy. He had lots of them, but not a lot of the heads. He is now down to just some power packs and no heads. As for the radio remote, I was using a pocket wizard on one of the power packs and a photo slave on the other. The transmitter was on the hotshoe of one R8 and the other R8 was hooked into the sync in plug of the transmitter. That way I could shoot both cameras without moving the transmitter. The Pocket Wizard came from B&H.
