I think with Paul Buff equipment, online os the only option. You might be able to mail order if you want to go low tech.

Re: I need a flashtube
Yeah, that's a miniscule price. The tubes for my lowbuck SP monolights are $90.

Give them a call at their 800 number and they'll make sure you get the right one. Their customer service is some of the best around - as are their products. -p Larry Colen wrote: It turns out that the reason one of the studio strobes I bought off a friend a while back doesn't work is that the flashtube is dead.
