Service needed for YS-D2 in USA

[Asli Ertekin]

Hi,
One of my YS-D2 has broken bulb. By the time I had money to get it repaired Sea and Sea decided not to support this "old" model. So I am stuck with 700$ paper weight.
Is there anyone who could fix this for me? Or is it worth any money for parts?
I must add, this is the reason I will never buy Sea and Sea strobes again. 5 years is a short time for dropping a product from support.
Thanks for all suggestions in advance!

Have you reached out to Backscatter or similar vendors to see what they say?

@Asli Ertekin Don’t be so hard on Sea & Sea. The YS-D2 isn’t just an expensive paperweight.​

It’s more versatile than that. It can also serve as an expensive doorstop.

I’m with you on going with other brands from this point forward though.

Call Devon at Pacific Housing Repair. He MIGHT have some spare tubes. He is a good guy but not fast.
