strobe convertor - sea & sea -> nikonos

hi all,

anyone know if a convertor exists that will allow me to use my sea & sea strobes (type S - the 4 pin sea & sea connector) with a bit of kit that accepts only nikonos (5 pin) strobes. don't really want to have to start again as i've got 3 ys60 ttl/s strobes already, but no nik ones.

thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Are you sure that you need all 5 pins? Many housings only require two pins to be connected even though they have 5 pin bulkheads. What are the specifics of the housing?

thanks for the reply bill.

was doing a bit of digging last night and it appears that there is some difference between the 2 interfaces re voltages etc, so what i thought might've been easy doesn't appear to be the case. looks like i need to get nik strobes unless there is such a magic box of electronics that does the job (i know there is something that will allow nik strobes to convert to the 4 pin sea & sea connector on mm2 cameras etc). think i'll have a chat with mike at mikedive.de as this sort of thing is right up his alley.
