[QUOTE="carguy, post: 474407, member: 12521"] I wanted another way to use an off camera flash without a clamp or other means which may harm the surface. I had a spare vacuum cup from my bicycle rack system and put together a flash and wireless transceiver that can mount to any flat surface. No marking and the system can hold up to 120 pounds. Shown are a LumoPro LP160 and Pocketwizard PlusX Parts List: 4½” SeaSucker vacuum cup - $47.99 seasucker.com (I already have a few as part of the bike rack system I use) 5" cold shoe extension bar with 1/4"-20 female socket - $17.00 Amazon.com 1/4" male to 1/4" male threaded screw adapter - various I later found out similar solutions are on the market, but they aren't cheap.
