If you decide to switch to using LED bulbs will it be possible to use them in this kit?
Both the the Impact 4 Socket Fluorescent Fixture, B&H # IMFFS4, and the Impact FF-OF4 Octa 4-Socket Fluorescent Fixture, B&H # IMFFOF4, in the Impact Soft n' Natural Kit #3 listed above will accept Edison-base LED bulbs as long as the ballast on the base of the bulb has enough clearance for the bulbs to fully screw into the light socket. Fluorescent and LED lamps may be used in these fixtures, but tungsten/incandescent lamps CANNOT be used in these light fixtures.

question
What is the shipping size and weight of this kit?
The kit is approximately 14 lbs total. The size of the actually shipping box varies according to what the warehouse has at the time and what they feel is best to protect the items.The light stands are the longest part of the kit and the stands when closed are about 27 inches long. So the box will be at least that long.

question
Do the boxes in this kit have a 2nd internal diffusers/baffles?
No. While the Impact 50 x 70 cm Softbox for Fluorescent Fixtures, B&H # IMFFSB70, and the Impact FF-OSB60 Octa Softbox (24 ), B&H # IMFFOSB60, included in the Impact Soft n' Natural Kit #3 both have a removable front diffuser, neither softbox has an internal diffuser due to the design of the softbox and light fixture (due to the size/length of the bulbs, the shallow depth of the softbox, and the fact the bulbs are inside the softbox, an internal baffle would be pressed directly against the bulbs and would be inefficient for usage).

Can the fixture deliver 1/4 strength? It appears that turning off either switch would give half strength.
There is no way of cutting these fixtures into a 1/4 output. They are either 1/2 or full, which is two bulbs on or all four bulbs on.

question
Do the fluorescent bulbs that come with this set have a color cast?
They give off a color temp of about 5000k. It looks pretty natural on camera. Personally in post I may warm up skin tones a touch if its my only source of light, otherwise I do not worry about it in video too much.
