Building upon the design of the well-received TD5, the Westcott Spiderlite TD6 adds another socket for a total of 6 for increased light output. The light fixture accepts optional tungsten halogen (2800K) lamps up to 1200W maximum as well as fluorescents (2800-6000K) and a screw-mount flash. Three separate controls allow multiple combinations of bulbs together with no color shift. The TD6 has all-metal construction with 4 built-in receptacles for direct attachment of a 4-sided softbox without an adapter ring.

question
I have a 12 by 54 strip bank that is not a Westcott item. It has metal support rods and a Bowens speedring (which I know isn't necessary with the TD6) Can I use it on the TD6 without damaging the light unit? I'm pretty new to this studio lighting thing and I don't know if the metal rods would be compatible.
Charles, most standard 4 rod systems from quality manufacturers will work with a TD6 but I cannot speak to a non-specific model of softbox. Perhaps if you share your brand softbox someone will have a clearer answer based on experience.

question
Can I attached a Parabolic Umbrella to this light? I have the d5 and I am unable to use one with it.
Melissa,The TD6 can be used with the 7' umbrella but you should also be able to use it with a Westcott D5. If you are unable to attach the Umbrella to your D5 please contact Westcott Customer Service for a solution. https://www.fjwestcott.com/support/contact-support

question
Can this mount to a regular light stand or does it require a specific westcott stand? Also, I have a Paul Buff 30x60 soft box and I'm wondering if this accepts any type of softbox mount?
We use this on the Manfrotto rolling stand, you don't need a westcott stand. We have the Westcott umbrella and soft box on ours, so I'm not sure about other modifiers.

question
Will this fit multiple 105w CFL bulbs?
Unfortunately, the largest lamps that this unit can accept would be the following from Westcott: http://bhpho.to/1vCXSLO
