This is a Lowel DV Creator 1 Kit. This three-light kit combines Lowel's most popular tungsten-halogen fixtures with barndoors, an umbrella, gel frame, gels, flex arm, light stands, and a GO-83 hard kit case.
With its high-intensity #2 reflector and prismatic glass, the tiny focusable Pro-light is more efficient than a mini-Fresnel of equal wattage, yet it gives an exquisite even light, with Fresnel-like shadow quality. It can be used as a low-level key or accent light, fill light (with diffusion), or backlight.
The wide focusing range of the Omni-light makes it a flexible key or backlight. Add diffusion or an umbrella, and it's a soft fill source.
Compact, rugged and versatile, the broad throw Tota-light can be used with its umbrella or gel-frame and diffusion as a soft key, fill, or backlight. With its adjustable reflectors, it can be a smooth and even background light, or point it toward the ceiling to raise the ambient (base) light level of a room. Tota-lights are also widely used for photographic copy work.
Although this kit comes supplied for 120 volt AC use, it may be fitted for use with other voltages, with the appropriate bulbs and plug adapters -- sold separately.

Comments about Lowel DV Creator 1 Kit:
I was impressed with this kit. It actually was too powerful for my video shoot. We ended up just using the interior lights. Breaks down and stores nicely in the case. Good for a semi-beginner like myself. Not so easy to set up. The instructions could be clearer. I'd give it 5 but the lack of clarity in the instructions is what warrants a 4
