Amazing little power houses.
My go to location light had been the Hybrid 360 ii which is still great but I needed a modelling lamp to assist with AF. Nothing worse that your camera hunting for AF with a client on set... these lights along with the dual bracket solve that problem. Tons of power, well made and a great feature set in a small package. Perfect.
