Basically it acts as an extension cord. I have the current Nikon cord and used the previous Nikon version until the rubber coating cracked and the wires started to short out (the rubber cracked due to how I had the cord wrapped around a stroboframe--when I flipped the frame to its vertical position, the frame pinched the cord and cut into it). The current Nikon cord has a lever which locks the cord into place--looks like the promaster does, too. The previous Nikon version had some type of dial that had to be rotated (screwed) to hold it in place. Just by looking at it, it was difficult to tell whether or not it was locked. I know a few people whose flash fell to the ground because they didn't lock the cord. The lever lock works much better because of its visibility.</blockquote>
