p.2 #1 · What do you use to move your equipment around?


I've been quite happy with the Transpac Multi Kit Case from Photoflex...can easily get four heads, reflectors, stands, softboxes, cords/extensions, PW's, and plenty of other random little things:

Everything everyone has ever said about that thing is that it is a rock. I know I spent more then I wanted to, but in the end if it can last me many years it will be worth it.

Plus when something like that has a lifetime warranty, that means something as well

you cant go wrong with pelicase they are great and they offer peace of mind that your gear is safe, and plus if anything goes wrong they will replace of fix your case for free, so they are well worth the money

Here is a quick shot of my case with all of my stuff in there...

Only thing that did not fit were my 2x 100 foot extension cords, which is okay with me. I can keep those in the car and come out and get them if I need them.

So far this is what the case can hold:

4x B800's
4x B800 power cords
2x 25 Foot extension cords
2x 11 inch reflectors (new ones from alien bees)
2x 8.5 inch reflectors (new ones from alien bees)
4x Avenger super clamps
4x Safety cords
2x Duct Tape, other Tape roll

Matt,

How are you carrying your light stands? Do you carry your vagabond with you?

If and when I use light stands I use a bag that used to hold a large folding chair to carry. But most times I just use my avenger clamps.

No vagabond for me, though for next season I want to get a couple.

Thanks for the folding lawn chair tip. That will help me out when my son is not around to carry anything for me.
