Will this work with a Chimera Triolet Mogul base adapter?
Asked by: RetroTech 1
The Chimera Lantern Softbox with Skirt - 20 (50cm) Diameter is designed for light fixtures up to 650 watts. The Chimera Triolet light fixture with the Mogul base uses bulbs up to 1000 watts, which would not be compatible for use with the Chimera Lantern Softbox.

Does this fold flat when stored?
Asked by: Diego
Yes, the Chimera Lantern Softbox with Skirt - 30" (76cm) Diameter once you take the speedring out it can be folded. The sleeve it comes with is more round so most fold it and roll it at the same time to fit in the sleeve.

question

what kind of lights fixtures can this be used for ? as i see the only speed rings available are for Arri pocket lites
Asked by: Muhammad A.
Chimera makes a Mogul socket ring that allows you to use incandescent lights bulbs from 1000W and 500W down to any household light bulb, led or compact fluorescent. The smaller bulbs need an adapter for mogul to medium screw base. There are also Chimera rings for Joker HMI lights 200 Watt and 400 watt.
