[sdiy] strobe light triggers?

[Derek Holzer]

Has anyone worked with strobe lights which take a 5V trigger? I'd like 
to know if the trigger should be of a fixed length of time. Does the 
strobe have a fixed time that it is on, or does it remain on for the 
length of the trigger? Basically, I'd like to know if building a 
comparator with a 5V output would be enough to be able to control the 
strobe from my synth, or if I need to make that pulse output a narrow 
trigger.

Pls CC me any replies directly. Thx!
