I still find it incredible that the capacitor in the tiny CS-14 can create over 250v from just two 1.5v AA batteries... Just being pedantic here, but the capacitor doesn't do anything other than store the charge. The voltage is generated by a step-up transformer driven by an oscillator - that's what causes the whistling noise you hear. Quite correct - apologies for my terminological inexactitude! |

Just added the Contax T14 Auto as, although it was a dedicated accessory for the Contax T, it was available as a separate purchase.

Added Yashica Y16 bulb flash; this was included with some kits for the Yashica Y16 and 16EE. It was also available as a separate item. I don't yet have one to check its details.

I have the Y16 flash holder -- which I think fits on the 16EE -- and I might have the bulb holder too. I'll check.
