    Good kit!

    This is a really well put together kit. The boom arm is a *bit* tricky to get set up, but I like the extra light of having a third item. It seems to work well with a 5 lb counterweight provided the boom is not extended too long, if it is, it needs more than 5 pounds.

    this is a quality package

    Quality product. The tripods are metal with strong connections. The light boxes work well. The products were double-boxed and in perfect condition.

    What case would be best to store these fixtures and bulbs? Would the Photoflex Transpac Dual Kit Case suffice?
    Asked by: Eric
    Yes, the Impact 3-Head Fluorescent Lighting Kit with Boom Arm Kit would be compatible for use inside the Photoflex Transpac Dual Kit Case. You may have to adjust the positioning of the padded inserts to accommodate the items included in the Impact 3-Head Fluorescent Lighting Kit with Boom Arm Kit.

    question

    How long is the power cord that is attached to each fixture? Can you recommend an extension cord with a four-outlet box that will safely handle the 382-watt load of the twelve 32W CFLs? Thank you for your help!
    Asked by: Mark H.
    The cord is 11 feet long. There is one cord so there is no need if you need the cord to be longer to have four outlets.You should not go below 14 gauge cords. This is a link for different lengths http://bhpho.to/2ej0BYH.

    How heavy of a sand bag would I need as a counterweight for the one on the boom arm if it was fully extended?
    Asked by: Bruce
    The sand bag weight depends on the weight of what is on the outer end of the arm and how far the arm is extended from the stand. Same as a balance scale.

    question

    How do the soft boxes attach to the three fixtures in this kit? I see that the translucent covers are attached to each box with a combination of zippers and Velcro, but I can't tell how the assembled box is attached to the light head. Thank you for your help and advice!
    Asked by: Mark H.
    The softboxes attach to this heads using 4 rod points which are located behind the lamp sockets. Those rods then slip into each corner on the black softbox fabric.
