    I use profoto and love it but if the dude is using alien bees i doubt he's going to drop $5000 on a power pack. Their 7" reflectors cost $140 and a replacement strobe bulb is $400. I use profoto because I need it for all the location shooting I do but honestly, if you can get great shots using the cheapest or even homemade stuff than why drop all that money for something that's going to make no discernable difference?
    Strobist is great for learning how to do shots on the cheap. Either another alien bee or a Nikon speedlight would probably be what you need.
