The T-1 Power Control is essentially just a T-32 with a connector socket
instead of a flash tube. Its probably a little more complicated than that,
but what you wind up with is a power supply and interface for the camera
that lets you plug the different macro flashes into it. Since it is similar
to a T-32, it uses the same AC adapters as the T-32 flash... the little
'wall-wart' with the funny plug on the end. You get fast recycling and
unlimited flashes... which might be handy for table-top macro work.
The modeling lights are also present in the T-28 flash heads and can only be
powered by low-voltage, so you need either the batterys in the T-1 Power
Control or the external D-cell 6-volt pack.
