Answering questions regarding our video lights

Hi Guys,

I am seeing a lot of questions regarding our video light setups scattered around the site. If you guys have any questions feel free to ask me in this thread, it'll be good for everyone to compile all of the FAQs in one thread.

Right now we have 3 setups for videos. The SLX, SL50, and the TL50 Twin Beam video packages. Heres' a quick recommendation from our recommendations page:

SLX Video Light Packages - An ultra affordable lighting package for macro videos and videos using mini-dvs and digital cameras. The battery pack is enclosed in the housing so all you need to do is connect the lights to the arms and then to the housing.

SL50 Video Light Package - An ultra affordable lighting package for all ranges of videographers. The battery pack is enclosed in the housing so all you need to do is connect the lights to the arms and then to the housing.

TL50 Twin Beam Package - By attaching the battery pack to a custom mount or on a bc, weight belt, tank strap, or custom trays, the light heads can be mounted to arms and then to the video housing.

I am here to answer any questions that you might have

Tim, do you think I will need to add buoyancy to my housing if I have the TL50? I have an Amphibico EVO PRO HD with out side monitor and Loc Line for arms. I plan on putting the battery on the housing? Also Thanks for your help on the battery problem about a week ago.......Mark

Hi Mark,

We made some buoyancy sleeves for the SL50 and the TL50 and that'll be available in early september. The Loc Lines will hold the Tl50 light head without a problem since they're very compact and the light head itself is neutrally buoyant. You will need a diffuser for videos but you won't need a light ball adapter since you can just screw the light directly onto your loc lines. How do you plan on moutning the battery on your housing?

Well not sure yet maybe wire ties that I can cut off when not in use. What do you think? Mark

What are the angles of coverage for the lamps ?

I can't see any lumen info. on any of your lights. Is this info available? Also are any of your lights self-focusable?
