So how portable is the unit?
Thanks!
It's very portable. The soft box folds down and fits in a little bag, the stand folds up. Then, there's the extra pieces... the light unit, the bulb (fits in a robust tube), the speed ring and power cord... I need to find some kind of box or bag for these. The extra bits are not bulky and the entire setup is quite light, even when considering the sturdy stand.
It also came with some inner louvers in it's own bag that I don't think I'll use much.
The first time I set everything up, it took me less than 5 minutes. Break down should be equally as quick.
I could easily transport a dozen or more of these in the trunk of my Mustang, if needed. Today or tomorrow, I'll get some better pics of the setup, both up and torn down.
