      Comments about Photogenic Powerlight 1250DR UV-Corrected Monolight (120VAC):

      I already own 2 2500DR Photogenic Lights and because of my satisfaction with them I bought the 1250 when I was looking for a light with less power. This light will be used as a fill light as well as a main light when a short depth of field is required.
      I am very satisfied with the light and will likely purchase an additional light to serve as an accent.

        Comments about Photogenic Powerlight 1250DR UV-Corrected Monolight (120VAC):

        Photogenic name was what promted me to purchase these lights - and a great deal from B&H photo
        however for the first time i sent up the lights the plug for electricity on the unit pulled out and is just flimsy plastic. the tiny attachments to keep everything running were barely held on.
        Everything else on these lights work great and powerful. However living in Canada and the first attempt at using my new lights these wires and cords popping out on me - i was not a happy camper.
        Yes i would buy other Photogenic equipment in a heart beat and I would buy more of these units i just won't be trying to unplug them.
