    Cheap junk plastic

    Tried them with LED backlight and after 5 minutes of use the screw that adjusts the bracket broke. This might work if you just want a very bright bulb in them, but be warned they're cheap and won't last long.

    • Inspires confidence

    • Secret

    good price, good quality.

    I bought these to replace the ones that came with the lighting kit which didn't last very long. These seem to be much better built and both work great as expected so I'll update if anything changes. but now they seem great and i am very happy with them.

    Pros
    • Price
    Cons
    • Having problems

    Lightweight, cheap, job done. If it doesn't break

    Light, cheap and the job gets done. For a photographer on a budget (and someone who is also a student) they allow me to have the gear I need with minimal bulk. My problem is that one broke on the second use and decided not to turn it on for no reason

    Pros
    • a handy thing
    Cons
    • I don't remember but there was something

    Great bang for the buck!

    Exactly what I expected, they work well and at a great price! They're clearly not top-notch, there are a few rough marks from the molding, but the socket and switch appear solid, match my lighting stands well and work great with a pair of 75w LED bulbs. Amazing deal for the price. Definitely recommend/buy.

    Pros
    • High test results for hold and durability
    Cons
    • boring packaging

    Fluorescent Lamps Only: Illumination

    The lamp holder is made of plastic and may melt if exposed to hot light. The umbrella holder might fit a small umbrella but when I tried it with a 40 inch umbrella it was too flimsy and almost broke. Overall they are very cheap as the price would suggest, but they work with CFL bulbs. I've bought them in the past and the quality of the last batch has gone down.

    Pros
    • Durable Test Results
    Cons
    • Almost Everything OK

    I broke the bulb for the rod and rack

    The thread on the cartridge is very soft plastic. (Although some of the product photos on the site show metal.) This means it's easy to remove the threads, or worse, it broke one of my bulbs because the bulb's base was wedged into the plastic so tight that I she unscrewed the light, the base was plugged into the socket. Because of these problems, I've spent a lot of time on this thing, and now I don't have a lightbulb.

    Pros
    • High quality assembly
    Cons
    • There are defects

    Power cord 90 inches *not* 9 feet long

    I have used this product for a short time and in that time I have been able to attach it to the stand, screw in a lightbulb and get the power to switch on and turn on the light. He has to do all of that. However, please note that the power cord is only 90 inches (7 feet, 6 inches) long, not * 9 feet (see picture). This is significant in my art studio so I now have to use an extension cord to use this light holder Optional.

    Pros
    • Great for a small home
    Cons
    • Gotchas

    Great when used as a fill light with FOLLOW

    I use them as fill lights with small flash softboxes attached. Attach one to the Manfrotto flex arm and the other to the 11" swing arm. I've used LED floodlights, but since I use CFLs in my ceiling softboxes I'm tired of the purple tint when mixing LEDs. With 5000K temperature of CFLs and trying to fix in PS Now I use the same temps everywhere FOLLOW UP Just received my second order for 4 of these heads Love these things One suggestion I would rather have a small softbox like a Softbox flash…

    Pros
    • good stuff
    Cons
    • Good but not great

    Well built.

    I have purchased another brand in the past and decided to give this one a try after reading some reviews. My problem with the first ones was the metal ring that makes contact with the bulb. It was cheaply built and fell apart. So, the first thing I did when I opened this package was to check what the lining was in this one. Judging by the rating, the design is much better. I've been using them quite a bit since I've had them and haven't had any issues with them falling apart. I recommend this…

    Ideal as fill light with FOLLOW-UPS

    I use them as fill light with small flash softboxes attached. Attach one to the Manfrotto flex arm and the other to the 11" swing arm. I've used LED fill lights, but since I use CFLs in my ceiling softboxes, I'm tired of the purple tint when mixing LEDs. with 5000K of CFLs and trying to fix it in PS. Now I use the same temperatures everywhere. FOLLOW-UP: Just received my second order for 4 of these heads. I love these things.

    • Available in white only

    Improved design! Seems to be ok so far.

    I had dozens of these from Limo Studio but they all broke and went in the trash! The threaded bushes are out! I'm a photography teacher, so I need at least 15 working models. To add to the tragedy, I resold about 30 of these to participants in some lighting workshops and got a black eye from so many failures! It was bad! In the end I got my money back but no compensation from Limo Studio because I would have had to pick them all up and pay for shipping back. Bad experience! This is an improved…
