This is their response:
The transformer itself is not available and the entire control circuit
would require replacement. You would be talking a charge in the area of

Currently only 1 circuit is in stock and may be used in other repairs. If
parts are out of stock at time of repair approval repair times will be
extended as we wait for parts to come from Elinchrom overseas.
