Available for rent in the LA Area

 

The "PentaLight" features FIVE of our own "DecaPods" in a framed design. These Pods are not only switch able, but pan able, replaceable, and removable. The "PentaLight" is held by a bail with a standard senior (1 1/8") pin and holds its own custom ears for holding up to 4-4x4 gel and diffusion frames (not included). When ordering a "PentaLight" we send a complete system (excluding stands) consisting of: the pentalight, a pentafeeder, a set of penta ears, one spare decapods (for use as a spare or for you to use on its own, my favorite way), spare globes and instructions on the easy way we recommend locating and changing burn outs globes, as well as an AC sensor. The "PentaLight" fully assembled is not only incredibly functional but also quite attractive and has been photographed "In the Shot" several times.

OPINION

The PentaLight came as sort of an after thought, and was always thought of as a 12 Light Maxi-ish lamp. Which I suppose is true, after all it holds its own in a side by side comparison. The Penta ships with 4x4 frame holders. These holder are based on the American Equipment 12k Ear Extensions and hold up to 4-4x4's which makes this light very Grip-Friendly. The Penta as well as the DecaLight include a Master Switch (breaker), which may seem like no big deal, unless you are the guy who has to turn-off the light before running to the catering line.
