 ====C-Stands and Gobo arms====
 [[file:Cstand.jpg|200px|thumb|right|C-Stand with Gobo Arm]]
-A C-stand is primarily used to position light modifiers, such as silks, nets, or flags, in front of light sources. The stand is constructed of metal and consists of a collapsible base, two riser columns, and a baby pin on top. In addition, a C-stand includes a gobo head and a gobo arm, which provide the ability to articulate a light modifier without moving the stand itself. The legs of C stands are designed to be nested, so many stands can be placed around a light source. They can also be used to mount small light instruments, such as the Colortran Mini-Lite at APS.

 Caselites are compact, lightweight, rugged and completely self-contained without sacrificing output or light quality. The all-in-one Caselite is both light and case combined, and each one comes with a stand, eggcraft, cord, arm, and stand mount bracket. APS carries both 5300K (daylight) and 3000K (tungsten) compact fluorescent lamps.  Additional lamps can be checked out separately.<br />

 This is a good lighting instrument for outdoor use as a fill light when using the sun as a key light source because it is '''daylight balanced'''. Each kit is slightly different, one has 2-2 light Molefays, another has 1-2 light Molefays and accessories, and the third has 2-1 light Molefays and accessories. Each dichroic filtered lamp is rated at 605 watts and approximates 5,600 K daylight. Each kit requires separate light stands.

 Designed to fill the need for a small compact Softlight with high performance for locations and small sets where space is at a minimum.  All the light comes indirect and unobstructed from diffuse surfaces.  This instrument has two 1000W lamps and two switches to control them separately, allowing for 1000W or 2000W output.
