Looks like it's another one made by Icorp/Tumax (like the Dörr DAF-42, Sakar / Digital Concepts 952AF/PEN, and Vivitar DF400MZ.)

TUMAX Digital Macro Flash Series - DMR

They also make the Xotopro twin (well, triple) flash macro system.

Yeah but by the time the bracket is factored in, it is in the price range of the aforementioned units. I have wondered who actually makes the Dorr unit and suspected Tumax but have seen no definitive proof.

Custom grips can be a whole other can of worms.

hey blue,
the grip i use is custom.. it doesn't look like much but works great.. i pretty much made it from hardware laying around.
i've upgraded the diffuser and also made another flash adapter to put the flash in more places..

Yeah, I have no proof either. The circumstantial evidence is high: it looks exactly the same as all the rest, and Tumax says
