Hi, Simon
I'd recommend you get in touch with my long-time friend and colleague,
Don Thomson (cc'd above). He knows a great deal about flash systems
and may be able to help you... and he's right around the corner from you,
in Uxbridge.
If you do get to see him, please tell him I sent my regards,
Good hunting!

Sorry, this is a non-confocal
question, but I'm hoping someone out there may
be able to help. We have an approx. 10 year old flash photolysis
system
manufactured by Photonic Instruments. The system essentially
comprises a
lamp, a couple of large capacitors and a power supply.
Unfortunately the
system was left powered up at full charge for approx. 2 weeks and it no
longer
works (I think the capacitors have fried). I've contacted Photonic
Intruments
to see if they can repair it but they have not responded to my
e-mails. Can
anyone out there recommend a company who might be able to repair this
unit?
Thanks.
