Thanks for the responses guys, I think I'll resist the urge until I'm %100 positive it safe. I'll make sure to pick up a multimeter from a reputable brand; that's money well spent in my opinion.

Thanks again,

Hi everyone,

I picked up a Vivitar 225 for $10 at a pawn shop today and plan to use it for strobist type experiments later on with ebay triggers. I've heard the old Viv's had high trigger voltages and can hurt newer SLR's. Can anyone confirm that this is the case for this flash as well or was it just the 283/285's? I don't have a multimeter to try testing it unfortunately.
