I have a special lighting kit that comes with these types of stands that can be conveniently placed at the edge of a desk or on shelves etc. I started out with a tripod of giant soft boxes and realized all too quickly that tripping over and dodging the boxes had become an obstacle course even in my small studio. When I saw they were available as a separate option, I grabbed them. They have this universal mount that is used in many lighting sets. The best way to see what it is is to look at the images on this page.
