[QUOTE="hark, post: 762888, member: 13196"] I am going with the Nikon brand cover, lucien. Several years ago I had an SB-910 that had corrosion inside the battery chamber due to Duracell batteries leaking. Although I cleaned it out myself as did an employee of a local camera store, the metal inside the chamber was pitted from the corrosion. I sent the flash to Nikon for repair at a cost of $225. When I got it back, I took about 110 flash images. The Nikon sync cord I was using on a Stroboframe flash bracket cracked exposing the wires. Instead of paying for another Nikon brand one, I purchased one by Vello. I went to take the first photo with the Vello cord, and got an error code. That was the end of the flash. So for something like this that conducts power through the body, I don't want to take any chances.
