p.1 #1 · Anyway to Mount 2 Quantum T5Ds?

Instead dragging my AB 1600 and the Vagabound battery out for a mid day shoot, I am trying to figure out the best way to mount two Quantums on a light stand. I obviously need a cross bar that can mount two umbrella adaptors. Is there any contraption out there?

If your a DIY type, you can make one for a few dollars:

DIY Dual Flash Bracket

Or save time and spend money. I'm lazy and bought the Ziv Dual Flash Bracket:

Al Jacobs Perfection Bracket

Here's a couple of Norman LH2 heads on my DIY bracket (like an Al Jacobs) with CSRB bracket.

Quantums should be similar... It's a handy way to get 400 W/S on location.
