| The
"DecaLight" features TEN of our own "DecaPods" in a
framed design. These Pods are not only switch able,
but pan able, replaceable, and removable. The "DecaLight"
is held by a bail with a standard senior (1 1/8") pin
and holds its own custom sized gel frame (4'x7' for
easy, one cut gel and diffusion applications). When
ordering a "DecaLight" we send a complete system (excluding
stands) consisting of: the DecaLight, a decafeeder,
a deca gel frame, two spare DecaPods (one as a spare
and the other for you to use on its own, my favorite
way), spare globes and instructions on the easy way
we recommend locating and changing burnt out globes,
as well as an AC sensor. The "DecaLight" fully assembled
is not only incredibly functional but also quite attractive
and has been photographed "In the Shot" several times.

OPINION
The
idea for DecaLight, first drawn on a napkin at the
Studio City Dupars Restaurant (aren't all great ideas
drawn on napkins?), it started as a single sheet of
light similar to a 42"x42" reflector board. It had
the attachments to make a soft-box / snoot out in
front, and had a whopping 400 MR16 globes! After one
or two design changes, the concept had transformed
into a Dino-like multi-MR16, multi-removable-paneled,
system that could be used as a Big-Gun or (torn apart)
several 2k-size Guns. The DecaLight, as far as I know
is the only lighting unit designed to be just as useful
assembled as disassembled. When used with the provided
gel frame, you can easily accomplish all sorts of
rigs including the ever-popular: Big, Bright, Straight-Down,
softbox, and with convenient locations to attach an
all-around skirt. Since we send a complete spare DecaPod,
changing burnouts in a snap. (ever try changing burnt-out
globes on a straight down Par64 based unit?) By the
way, did I mention our globes have an average life
of 4000 Hours?
