    I was googling the light name because I just bought one and I am having the same issue with it not working. Your blog came up. I have emailed Studio4less and hopefully they will exchange mine as well!

    I am a novice and am not sure I am putting the umbrellas on right. Are there any manuals for the Ba Wang 150?

    The umbrella shaft just slides into the front in the hole under the main unit. The light then shoots into the open umbrella. Think of it like a satellite dish, the flash fires into the dish and then is reflected back past the flash. With a Shoot-thru umbrella you point the umbrella at the subject instead of having it reflect back past the flash. We will be having a tutorial on umbrellas soon.

    there is a hole in the base that attached to the swivel, there is a small thumbscrew on there to tighten down onto the umbrella shaft. If you tighten it too much you can flatten the umbrella shaft. If you have a hollow shaft, force a pencil into the shaft to keep it from flattening.
