Can I switch the bulb to a flash instead? What would I need to do?

it is for E26 based bulb socket for softbox. So it won't be compatible w/flash bulb.

No ,,, you need j2534 flash module,, and original manufacturer tools for full flashing capability

As far as I can tell it has to be the gateway. I have not seen any way to control it other than with the gateway. If you don't have the gateway a light switch will work with it. The default state for the bulb is on, so if the gateway stops working just turn the bulb socket off and on, and the bulb will turn itself back on without need of the gateway.

I switched out the bulb for an LED one and used the on/off feature. There might be something like this for three way bulbs, I did not search.

No, not unless there is a way to do it that I have not figured out. Every time the lights come on they are in strobe mode, which I have found to be the only complaint I have with them.I will try to find the materials that came with the bulbs and If I learn differently, I will report back.

Yes, not a switch though, to change you have to switch 2 wires on the back of the bulb

You'll need to read the specs. The difference may be that you can only use flourescent bulbs vs. regular bulbs.

You can switch the bulbs out on these lights, if you wish. I put small LED's in mine, and they worked perfectly.

It will take some Electronics knowledge to do it, but it can be done.. You would have to cut and reconnect the leads to the plug to fish the wire out of one side of the housing. I found the angle of the flash suppose to NOT match to either front or rear window.

Yes. You can replace just the bulb. See videos on youtube of how it is done.

I agree with Gordon Johnson. Probably you don't have the flash set to ttl. It won't work otherwise.

Not that I'm aware of. It doesn't seem to be an included feature, nor do the bulbs have an advertised api, which would enable a more do it yourself approach.

It's just a white backlight. I'm sure you could change the bulb with a bulb sleeve.

Hello. No this bulb only comes with the bulb in the package. You would need to have some way of triggering the on/off thru an Insteon controller. Hope that helps...

Just goggle and order the bulb off line . Take the back off where it says bulb. And replace . Just use a cloth to pull it out and put it in. It takes seconds
