Hi,

Bit of a quandary, because I am not sure what this type of flash connection is called or the proper name for them. They are on a very early 1950's Canon Flash unit which was sold before the B-1 was released. The B-1 had a three prong connector which fitted into the battery tube it was supplied with but these did not come with a battery tube or were part of an outfit.

Initially I thought it was a Heiland connection but found out they are not, so must have fitted into some 1950's type flash tube. Maybe it is a type of PC push-on connection but hopefully someone can tell me the correct name for them...beats me.

Thanks in advance Peter
