If it wasn't for the Great Shipping Service from B&H I'd give this review a 1. That's where anything positive ends. Opened the boxes and ran into these issues. 1. On one light the actual bulb socket was loose. A screw was missing which was loose in the box and I had to reassemble it. 2. The tilt mechanism on one light reflector shade just spun around. I had to reassemble that too. 3. One light bulb had a cockeyed plastic base. I snapped it back together, but the light failed to work. 4. The other Fovitec light bulb turned on but when I had to use one of the Impact spare bulbs I purchased I found the brightness of the Fovitec bulb was significantly less. 5. The stands were very unstable. The light reflectors would easily fall over. I used some larger Neewer stands I bought form B&H previously and solved that issue. I love B&H, but this product's quality was the absolute pits!
Hard to believe B&H sells such a poorly designed product. The enclosures that house the lightbulbs were both loose, and there's no easy way to tighten them. You can try to tightening with needlenose pliers, but without a lock washer, it will only come loose again.
