Key Features

This Chimera OctaPlus 57 Hi-Heat Kit I is the OctaPlus 57 Hi-Heat light bank (expandable from 5' to 7'), constructed with heat-resistant material, making it possible to use a 3200W hot light, as opposed to a 1200W light in the standard OctaPlus 57.

This light bank requires an OP speed ring to adapt it to your particular strobe or hot light. Refer to the Accessories section. A 3770 stand adapter or other model stand adapter is also recommended for the larger models, so the weight of the light bank is not supported by the fixture.
