Well, I am still using the three of these that I bought two years ago... I use them daily, I use them all day. Here are my thoughts: 1) In my studio, these are invaluable. Modern lights, and even cameras, use passive or active ventilation to move hot air through the electronics and vent the heat out properly. The fact that I can keep all of my mounted hardware upright, instead of having to invert the light or camera, means the engineered cooling system can operate properly. 2) The only pieces that I still use from the original purchase, is the metal wraparound cage and the baby pin receiver on top of the cage. The mini ball mount and wing nuts are all terrible so they went away immediately. I instead bolted the mount to the top, and bolted a 1" long baby pin to the bottom, to accept my strobe lights being mounted directly to the bottom of the cage. PROS: Strong metal and well balanced. CONS: The ball head, wing nuts, etc... terrible quality. IN CLOSING: This product benefits in that I can't find any competitors. Apparently in this market, we jump from consumer junk to high end Hollywood.... because for those of us with DSLR's, moderate studio strobes, and a professional studioetc... there is no market for an overhead grid with suspended lighting and cameras. I see a whole market that is untouched. This product for me, had been a lifesaver. Thought there are a myriad of small annoyances, for example, nothing to help stop any connected hardware from twisting or spinning... so I have had to come up with a few clever tricks to keep things from rotating... but again... there are no other products like this on the market.... so... way to go. Well done... you won the game.
Hung from an O.C. White ProBoom
I wanted to hang my video camera from an O.C. White ProBoom at my desk so I could move it around. The connector at the top of the unit fit perfectly over the standard 5/8 threaded mounting stub. The unit is well made and well balanced. I would recommend it for similar use.
