    Can this really only hold up to 8lbs? I'd like to mount a GVM 100W with 26'' lantern on top. (likely 8 lbs total). Would it collapse? I'm not worried about it tipping over because I have sandbags. But would it collapse?

    I've had my stand for over a year and it holds the weight of everything I've put on it, I trust it's quality

    Can this hold a wireless transmitter?

    Can this hold a wireless transmitter?
    Asked by: Zachariah
    The Impact Air-Cushioned Light Stand (Black, 8') has a 1/4"-20 male thread on the top of the light stand. If your wireless transmitter has a female 1/4"-20 threaded socket, then you may screw the wireless transmitter directly onto the male 1/4"-20 thread on the top of the light stand. If your transmitter does not have a female 1/4"-20 threaded socket, but it does have a hot shoe/cold shoe, you may purchase an adapter such as the Vello Cold Shoe Mount with 1/4" Thread, B&H # VECS20, for your usage needs. Finally, if your transmitter includes a lanyard, you may hang the transmitter from one of the locking knobs on the light stand riser.
