This stand combo is great. I bought it because I didn't want to lug around a truss to my events. The combinations and angles of this thing are endless, what's even cooler, is if I don't need lights, I can use it as a speaker stand, and the adjustable leg is very useful.
I bought one of these because I got tired of rigging up our truss at gigs. The unit is sturdy, yet lighter than I thought. The attachable arms allow for a whole lot of lighting variations. Be sure and stock up on 1.5 in O clamps. Going to buy another 2 to replace my older steel tri-pods.<br /> I also like the fact that it comes with it's own bag.
I ordered one of these tri-pods to replace the truss system we were lugging around to all our gigs. I was impressed with the ease of set up and the fact that it was sturdy enough to handle the weight of lights used. I just received 2 more US Tripods to replace some old tri-pods we were using. I especially like the that leveling leg for those tough places.
I ordered the Ultimate support lighting system to update my original system like this from 30 years ago. Ultimate support construction is the best on the market. My other stand is silver and I wanted the light stand to match my ultimate speaker stands. I highly recommend and Ultimate support product.
Love these stands! Much lighter than my previous steel stands from ADJ. In fact, both of these aluminum stands probably weigh about the same as just one of the ADJ stands! The TeleLock Lift-assist is a great feature that really helps me raise and lower our lights. The leveling leg has already come in very handy too as we were on a tight stage recently and it helped tremendously to be able to put one leg off stage. The "stage" was really just a wooden deck about 6" or 7" high, but the leveling leg worked perfectly. All the parts are well made and I like that they are field serviceable. Just keep a few spare nuts and bolts of comparable size and a wrench and you're good to go. Everything seems very well thought out. I have to also mention the carrying bags for these stands. Wow! Excellent quality. You can actually get two stands easily in one bag. The bag has separate compartments for two stands to keep them separated. Since I ordered two stands and I can get both stands in one bag, I now have an extra bag and that's an added plus! Well done Ultimate Stands and thank you KPODJ for your excellent sales and service.
