    Was concerned this wouldn't be as solid as the other mount options, but it's fantastic. Grips perfectly and rigid.

    Good mounting option

    Will this hold Amaran PT4C?

    Will this hold Amaran PT4C?
    Asked by: Jenish
    Yes however you really need to crank it quite tight. These are slightly wider than the PT4Cs and so on occasion they can slip out. I own these clamps and the PT4Cs so I speak from multiple experiences.

    I'd like to mount 4 Pavolights together. Is there a quad mount for tube lights like this?
    Asked by: Kyle
    We do not have an MQ mount that will support 4 tubes. The Quasar MyWay Plate will do this. They sell it on their site. https://www.quasarscience.com/products/quasarplate?variant=43483386318
