Can you confirm that this light will operate as a SLAVE? Can you specify the maximum height that the stand extends to? Thank ytou!

Yes, mine slaves off my off camera flash that I have mounted on my camera, the sync time is great. The stand height is about 4 ft but it can be mounted on the taller cowboy stands

Yes, it will act as a SLAVE if you sync it with your camera...Canon's sync better than Nikon's (we use both)... and I believe the max height is about 4' so I move it to another stand when I want more height. Make sure you have lots of Triple A batteries on hand if you're going to be using it a long time...even the rechargeable batteries wear out with lots of use.

Yes it operates as a SLAVE. I am rather short so I think its tall to me lol. I would say its in the range of 3-4 ft tall

Yes Daryl it does operate as a slave and the height is around 3 or 4 feet. Haven't used it in a while so I'm not too positive about the height. For the price it's a pretty decent strobe.
1868488
Yes its a slave. Its pretty powerful. Get the color gels and the barn doors.... The stand is super short. Less than 2 feet.

Yes. That is about how tall my hubby is, and no issues. (unless you get in the very corners) We hang a light from the center, and I (who am 5'8") have to stand on a picnic table bench to reach.

Absolutely! This light includes field-cuttable cord allowing you to hang the light at your desired height.Thanks for your question.

No. It would never even fit given it much larger than a normal light. You need a 400 watt HPS unit to run it.

Hi I have used the Jump Start grow light stand which you can purchase by itself. It works fine with this fixture, which is one of the best. I have 5 of these stands and they come with extensions which work great also.

This light can be used with either the stand that puts it up higher or without the stand and that back metal piece flips out just like a picture frame and sit leaned back on whatever surface you want it to. Hope this helps

I would love to help you, but I was not able to extend mine fully. It is not very sturdy and if you attempt to fully extend it the weight of the light mount alone will BEND the bar. I used it once and had to modify it for other things as it did not really meet my expectations. If you are using it for babies, and newborn shots, small subjects and other closer work, perhaps... but not for adults and other full sized subjects.

I am thinking it adjusts to about five feet as when I stand next to it, it is about nose level and I am 5'5". The light itself would adjust a little higher because it is on another adjustable wand.

I will measure it when I get home and respond to your question about the dimensions. However, I want to understand your question about the light. Are you putting it into another box or putting it on a light stand?

I built my own stand with aluminum poles at each end to suspend light. By the way, the light works great! Heavy gauge wiring and low heat.

Yes sir, it does extend to that height. I personally have not attached lights to it. I use it for light video recordings only. I pray that this info is helpful.

We used the stand from a halogen worklight assembly (the kind with two lamp fixtures). We just removed the fixture assembly (which is attached with a wingnut) and replaced it with the spot, which mounts via a single hole in the center of the bracket. Because it is relatively lightweight, we had no problems. And, yes, it's a great light, especially for the price.

As long as it fits the softbox and the slave can "see" the other strobe or strobe, it should work. I use it as a background light, which is probably a better option.

Have not tried spotlights on the stand. The bars are supposed to extend to 95". We only use about 60" in width. We had to re-tap the screw holes because a couple of the end pieces were cross threaded. The screws are metric so we re-tapped them to SAE so we could use easily available fasteners. Pretty fair stand for the money but it's not perfect.

My experience is similar to that of JMG. I have my arc lamp extended the full 35 inches. It looks really good and is fully functional. I placed mine next to a chaise lounge where I do a lot of reading. I have had no problems with the base. If I extended the lamp less than 35 inches, it would not direct the light to the right place.

I don't think its height would be sufficient. The stand is VERY low even when fully extended.

The stand has a very narrow footprint. It is also not very heavy. With an 18" ring light it should work but be careful to not let it tip over. I personally would look for a more substantial stand.
