I have really enjoyed this light, and while I want to hang on to it I need to sell it and use the money to invest in a light weight tripod system for my Red. (I’m also selling my O’Connor 50 which is listed here.)

How well does this run at full power? I've heard stories of flickering when running at full. Could we see some footage shot with just this light?

I have experienced no problems with this light at all. I would keep it, except that I need to put the money towards a light weight tripod for my Red. (I'll have to rent lights for the time being...)

I have used this light with the HVX/Letus, HPX, and the Red, and I have never had any flickering issues when the ballast was on either half or full power. If you take a look at my reel you can see the light in action. The shots specifically are around the following numbers:
0:31 - 0:34 (Casino scene - it is the key light)
0:50 - 0:54 (Interviews - again the key light)
0:55 - 1:02 (The tabletop shots - You guessed it- the key light)
 
I just responded to your PM. Thanks for the questions.

To answer those questions for everyone else:

The tungsten output is equal to 2400w.

The ballast is supposed to work in 110 / 240. However I have not tested out the 240, so I do not have experience with it.

I bought the light this last spring.
