The Bescor XT160 Bi-Color LED On-Camera Light Kitis a lightweight bright solution for portable on-camera lighting. Its 160 LEDs, 80 tungsten and 80 daylight, can be variably switched using the onboard dimming dials. A 12V power supply is included to power the XT160 using a mains connection. Alternatively, use the L-series battery bay on the rear of the light for powering on the go with the included NP-F battery. After the battery is depleted, use the included charger to replenish it. Diffusion and orange filters are included for adjusting the light's output, as is a shoe-mount ball head for securing the light to your camera.

Q: 1. Can Bescomr FM-256 biColor LED be connected in series...with additional lights?

A: What you could do is use the Matthews Mini Baby Double Header B&H # MA429610 and connect each frame to the studs using a Manfrotto 014-14 Rapid Adapter - 5/8" Stud to 1/4-20" Thread B&H # MA01414, so they are side by side. https://bhpho.to/2GqelmT https://bhpho.to/2tmhHz2

Q: 2. Can this run off batteries?

A: I have two Bescor FM-256 LED Lght mats. There is a battery designed to power two units but I have not purchased the battery yet. I have used the two LED units with AC power in my home and have been pleased with the convenience and quality of the light. Low cost and no frills. The availability of the battery was a reason I purchased these units.

Q: 3. Is there a Watt-equivalent brightness, for easy comparison with other lights? (I see the Lux rating, but it's less intuitive.)

A: FYI, after some digging and math, I calculated this to be about 156 Watt-equivalents (incandescent).But it could be higher if I'm not handling the light's angle of dispersion correctly.(I'm treating the quoted 200 lumens at 3.65m as a point spherical source. Casual intuition suggests that might not be correct for a panel light like this, ... but my cursory reading of the equations involved suggests that doesn't matter?)The math seems to be:(1) lumens = lux x distance (in meters) squared.(2) Watt-equiv = lumens/19.3+18 (more or less)*So, 100 lux x (3.65)^2 = 2665 lumensand 2665 lumens/19.3+18 = 156 Watt-equiv_____________________* The 2nd equation is my regression of some data I plotted from a DOE webpage.

Q: 4. I see that the tripod stands go up to 74", but what would be the approximate footprint of each tripod?

A: The footprint diameter would be roughly 30" wide.

Q: 5. Any photometrics available?

A: While the manufacturer does not list any photometrics, they do list this panel as being the equivalent of 300 watts in terms of light output and having a CRI of 90+.

Q: 6. Is it possible to buy additional light filters for this? Specifically darker ones. These are almost too bright at their lowest setting for my night photography project.

A: Unfortunately, we don't have more filters that would be able to be attached to the light.

Q: 7. How long is the articulating Gooseneck arm? and how wide can the gripper clamps open?

A: The goose neck is 23" long and the clamp can open to 2.1".

Q: 8. How many watts is the output of the Bescor FP-180 Bi-Color Dimmable LED Light?

A: One FP180 Bi Color fixture would be equivalent to about 100 watts of tungsten light.

Q: 9. Are these batteries NP-FZ100 (like used in the Sony A6600)?

A: No. The unit includes two NP-F-type batteries and chargers.

Q: 10. What is the folded length of the light stands included with this set?

A: Hello! The folded length of the light stands is 29.75"
