    Kraken KR-S02 Strobes

    Howdy! Has anyone used the Kraken KR-S02 Strobes? I have a pair of them and trying to diagnose an issue with them with the company but wanted to also check with some other owners about it. They are nice strobes and I know Kraken will have a winner here once this gets debugged out.
