I am a wedding photographer who is constintaly carring around lighting. I use the Quantum T5D's and this clamp holds my battery to the stand's. I have purchased 6 of them. I have one on every stand that I use so I can switch my Quantum's and not have to worry about switching the clamps. I had looked at other brackets and nothing compared to this one. Thanks B&H for supplying this great product to your customers.

I bought this clamp to attach my Quantum Turbo SC battery pack to my Gitzo GT3530LS tripod. I decided to return this clamp immediately after my first time attaching it to the tripod. The knurled handle and threaded screw just protruded out way to far for my liking. I could see it getting snagged on things and just getting in the way period when in the field. This product would be good for a photographer doing studio work where you can remain somewhat stationary, but for field work this is just doesn't seem like a good option.

Comments about Quantum Instruments Pole Mounting Clamp for Battery packs:
I generally have this on my RRS tripod or strobe flash stand, and it works great. Easily adjustable and grips well. My only (minor) complaint is that it's a bit snug on my RRS tripods, but I can make it work.

Comments about Quantum Instruments Pole Mounting Clamp for Battery packs:
Having this pole mounting clamp for my Quantum Turbo 2x2 Battery is so much safer than using the cheap bungee cord I was using. The belt clip on the back of the battery slides on the outer part of the slot easily. (The picture shown makes that part look too thick for the belt clip, but it really isn't thick at all.)

I've had it for less then a month and the plastic knob of the threaded bolt has already broken free when I tried loosening it from the light stand. I would recommend a different product if there was one out there.

Comments about Quantum Instruments Pole Mounting Clamp for Battery packs:
This is a straightforward item. I've used straps or bungee cords before I bought this item to secure the battery to a light-stand. This is a sturdy and quick solution. I considered this a luxury item until started shooting every weekend with Quantum gear. The setup is quick and secure, with no fuss.

Comments about Quantum Instruments Pole Mounting Clamp for Battery packs:
I use this this for every photo shoot. I use multiple Nikon SB-600s for my lighting along with Quantum's QB1C for power. This item keeps the battery pack right there on the light stand, which makes changing my lighting set-up quick and effortless. Since the battery is attached to the stand, with the Pole Mounting Clamp, I know it's secure and right where I need it to be.

Comments about Quantum Instruments Pole Mounting Clamp for Battery packs:
I bought this to secure the 10 lb Quantum Turbo battery to my monopod for nighttime flash shooting at sporting events. My first use with it ended up almost being my last as if you tighten it too much the knob to tighten it ends up unscrewing itself and nearly dented my Manfretto monopod. I had to use visegrips to release it from my monopod so I am surprised how easy it was to be overtightened as the instructions were not included for it (even though you would not have expected what happened to me).
