bro, try modding the trigger. search mu sa strobist in flickr. they have lots of tutorials. i tried the 12.3 inch wire and nawala ang misfires.

harvs, maybe sa RF set gyud. naa pud difference sa mga v2 and v2s. cguro chamba lang kay mga uban pud okay ra ilang 430ex with and without mods. Recently gimod nako ako receivers to use AA batteries and found less misfires.

@Harvs: Both bro, the receiver can handle 2 AA batteries kay mahal man ang cr2 na batteries (around Php120+ each) Gi.mod pud nako ang trigger with 12.3 inch wire to lift off the antenna from the board (increases range and reliability)

Search mo "cactus mod" sa flickr and makakita ka sa mga tutorials. barato ra man na mga AA battery holder, around Php30 sa mga electronic shops near USJR downtown :)
