Top Rated Gear: Used PocketWizard Plus X Transceiver #801-129 G MFR: 12165.

It's time to elevate your photography experience with the Plus X Transceiver #801-129, a high-quality, reliable, and user-friendly device designed to make remote shooting a breeze. This compact and durable transceiver is the simplest entry into the renowned PocketWizard Wireless System, offering seamless compatibility with all Standard Channel-capable PocketWizard transmitters and receivers. The Plus X Transceiver is equipped with 10 Standard Channels, providing you with the flexibility to work in your own exclusive "zone." This feature is particularly beneficial when working at crowded events or when you need different setups or looks. The channels are easily selected with a simple turn of the backlit channel dial, which remains on all the time for your convenience, thanks to its low power consumption. Designed with an unobtrusive, internal antenna, this transceiver ensures minimal visual obstruction between you and your subject. The internal antenna design also eliminates the risk of kinking or breaking it when on location. Despite its robust functionality, the Plus X Transceiver is incredibly compact, with a total height of less than 4.2 inches and a weight of just 4 ounces, including batteries. Connecting the Plus X Transceiver to your camera is effortless. It slides into the hot shoe with no cables required. For your remote devices, it features a reliable miniphone (3.5mm or 1/8") sync port. Each Plus X Transceiver comes complete with a miniphone-to-miniphone cable, a miniphone-to-phono (1/4" or 6.3mm) adapter, and a miniphone to locking PC cable, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of modern flashes and remote speedlights. The Plus X Transceiver is equipped with patented Auto-Sensing Transceiver Technology, enabling it to intelligently switch between transmitter and receiver modes for optimal simplicity. It also features an Auto-Relay Mode, allowing you to trigger a remote camera in sync with remote flashes using only three PocketWizard radios. A tri-color LED status indicator provides real-time updates on the transceiver's operation and battery life. The Plus X Transceiver also offers a Transmit Only Mode for situations where you only want your radio to transmit, such as when sharing a set of lights with other photographers. Despite its affordability, the Plus X Transceiver delivers the range and reliability that PocketWizard radios are known for. Its ultra-fast microprocessors ensure reliable sync speeds of 1/250 for focal plane shutters and 1/500 for leaf shutters. The Plus X Transceiver is compatible with all PocketWizard transmitters and receivers, including PocketWizard-enabled photo gear from Profoto, Dynalite, Norman, Photogenic, and Sekonic light meters. This compatibility makes it a versatile addition to any photography setup. Like almost all PocketWizard radios, the Plus X Transceiver is proudly made in the USA, ensuring the highest quality.

Used PocketWizard Plus X Transceiver #801-129 G

Works great with my lighting system in my studio

Awesome

Transsiver

Easy to use and works great. Takes 2 double A's each.

Just what I needed

This are easier to use than I expected them to be especially after getting a longer cord

Worth it

these things are AWESOME!!!..so easy to use and so reliable!!..have yet to have a misfire, wish I had purchased them a long time ago. These are the ones to get, don't hesitate!!!

THE BEST!!

I can’t seem to have enough of these things; I keep adding. They make things so much easier.

I can’t get enough of these things

These things work well and make things so much easier.

Get rid of cords

Does its job

Works like a champ

Pocket wizard working fine as always. Needed a third receiver for third strobe and to serve as a back-up & for remote camera. Using with Nikon cameras, Nikon flash, White Lightning Ultra and Dynalite strobe packs.

Reliable / no problems

Very versatile and has always worked. I have used this to fire speedlites and to trigger Novatron powerpacks. Nothing I have used before has been as simple and as predictable. Accessory cables allow this to work with everything. I even use a PC cable from Wista 4x5 viewcamera to this radio transceiver. This is backward compatible to my older Pocketwizard units I had bought used.

Compatible with all my gear. Always works.

Straight out the box, once you set the number, they'll sync automatically and they work perfectly.

Perfect!

Review

It works for perfect for running the studio lights

Works well

The following items were not included in my box:

MM1 Miniphone to Miniphone Cable (12")
PC1N Locking PC Sync Cable (12")
MFPM 1/8" to 1/4" Adapter

I didn't notice, unfortunately, until I ordered a second set a few months later....ugh

Missing cables

I use these for all kinds of stuff, I was shooting a church fro the outside an used these on light through out the church All the way to the rear no miss fires out of a whole night of shooting absolutely amazing.

Works great

It took about 5 min to set up to work with TT5 and are perfect for my old photogenic 1250s and Speedatron flashes.

great for use with old non TTL and Ittl Powe Packs and Monolights

This is my second PocketWizard Plus X,  and I wouldn’t have bought a second one if there was anything wrong with the first one.

It just works!

PocketWizad Plus X is a good  reliable product

I have used these PocketWizards for many years and have never had a failure. The only exception is my fault, forgetting to install fully charged batteries. Otherwise, they work great.

Very dependable

Great and easily usable. The only thing is that it does not come with any sort of reasonable strap to wrap around any part of the light. I had to buy my own velcro because the strap that comes with it is too short?

Wizard Plus

I've had no issues with these.  Using a Nikon D3400 for the moment and they connect to my AlienB 800 just fine.

Great Investment

If you don't have the camera & lights with the built in transceivers, then this is definitely the route to go. Sturdy, long lasting and dependable  transceivers.

Workhorse

Package comes with two mini-jack to PC only and one adapter for 1/4", which is useless if you plan to use them on some older model lights you're working with, like I do. 

NOW...I have to purchase two direct cables, 1/8" to 1/4" for $ so I can use them. (These use to come with the Pocket Wizards)

I have owned the Plus II models of pocket wizards for years now and they have never, never let me down. They were built to withstand a lot of bumping around; overall, the Plus II's were a durable little piece of equipment. 

I purchased this new, PlusX two-pack for a special assignment I have coming up in a month when I'll be rigging extra lights....and I have to say, these two definitely do not have the same durable feel to them as my old ones. These are made of very light weight, thin, cheap plastic. All in all, they feel like they're not going to give me even half the life of my Plus II models. I'm afraid that if I drop one on a hard floor.....that's it!

ADDITIONALLY, the booklet that comes with the Plus X two-pack indicates what comes in the box; saying it includes two 1/8" to PC cables, one 1/4" adapter and a mini-to mini cable....which it did not have, which is fine in my case because it wouldn't have helped me with my current connection requirements anyway.

Overall, I'm a little disappointed. Funny thing is, I paid a lot more for these than my Plus II models. I could understand the price getting higher if the product was being built better but it's just the opposite. Sign of the times.

Two Triggers - One adapter - Less Durable

I purchased an additional Pocketwizard to use with an earlier purchase. I really like the simplicity of this unit and plan on buying one more for a total of 4. I’ve used them with flash equipment and had great luck and reliability, and have also used them to trigger a remote camera.

They work, are well made, and Adorama is great to deal with

Reliable and worth it

Simple and easy to use. Perfect for what I needed them for.

Simple and easy

I can use my A7R2 with my AB800, Sony flash or my old Canon flashes! Perfect for me.

Used them right out of box

These transmitters work great!  I have used them in-studio and on-location.  A great way to trigger my lights without sync cords.  They make my life easier.

Very good product

Needed an extra radio for an event. Did not need the provision for grouping lights (ABCD), so this fit the need. The batteries last way longer in the Plus X, than the Plus III's I have when in Receive mode. Good thing. 



Dependable and Efficient

The units work great with all types of Flash Units.

The only thing about them I dislike is that they use AAA batteries and if left on overnight the batteries are dead the next day.

Very surprised they did not build a "sleep mode" into the device.
