I like this C-Stand, Kupo like parts?

Just received this. Put it together really quick and had to put it away, so I'll update this review with additional info if needed. First, got this on sale at $120. The price makes this a valuable choice. The grip head seems to be the same KCP-200 that is made by Kupo (and at one point was rebadged for the other Store's before getting an update) and the T-handles look identical when I stored this next to my Kupos. (I'll try to upload some pics later) The turtle base is solid and the release ring makes it super simple to open and close. The riser seems fine and at first check I don't anticipate any issues. This C-Stand is not that heavy but has a solid weight. Is this a Matthews; no but for the price tag, I feel this was a great purchase and I will buy again if end up needing more. I have a pretty good feeling this stand will last me a long time.

So Good I Needed Another!

Solid as a rock. Love the functionality and the equipment included with this C-Stand. I've been on set for years and know what quality is. This one does not disappoint for my smaller studio setup. I likle that the positioning knobs stay tight, the clamps are very secure, no slippage. Heavyweight and well machined, the clamps and arm are top notch. I just purchased another actually, it was that great!

Sometimes, smaller is better

There are times when a shorter C-Stand are handy. This one is a useful size for mounting gear closer to the floor.

Hard to beat for the price

Bought one of these after buying some other Flashpoint light stand related products and being happy with those products. Price of it compared to other similar brands was what made me want to give one a try. So far the quality of it is well worth the price. The stand is made very well; the t-handle grips are a good size and make adjustments easy and comfy, grip heads stay locked down once tightened, o-rings between each riser section, and the legs deploy/close easily. I have C-Stands from other brands like Matthews, Avenger, Kupo, and Impact, and this one so far is right up with those. Will definitely be buying more soon.

About Flashpoint 40" Quick Release Turtle Base C-Stand Kit with 2.5" Grip Head & 40" Grip Arm (Black)

Discover the exceptional Flashpoint 40" Quick Release Turtle Base C-Stand Kit with 2.5" Grip Head & 40" Grip Arm, finished in a stylish black. This kit is a revolutionary addition to the realm of lighting and grip equipment. It is designed with innovation and adaptability in mind, offering a plethora of features that enhance your lighting setup.

The centerpiece of this kit is a unique spring ring locking mechanism that redefines user-friendliness. By eliminating leg tension, it allows gravity to take over, making adjustments smooth and intuitive. The turtle base design further augments functionality, enabling you to effortlessly detach the riser section from the base, enhancing its portability. The base can be repurposed with a stand adapter for a low mounting position, offering unmatched flexibility.

Included in this kit is the 40" Grip Arm, a standout tool in its own right. It features a 2.5" grip head securely attached to a 40" steel tube with a 16mm diameter. The grip arm is distinguished by the faceted hex stud at its tip, ensuring a sturdy grip when positioning lighting fixtures. The grip head comprises two rotatable aluminum discs connected to a 16mm receiver, equipped with four unique V-shaped jaws. These jaws can accommodate accessories with mounting studs or tubing ranging from 5/8" to 1/4" in size, ensuring versatility and adaptability.

The Flashpoint C-Stand with Turtle Base is an ideal solution for mounting lighting equipment and a variety of light-shaping tools and accessories. This robust steel structure features two risers and extends to an impressive height of 9.7 feet. The detachable "turtle" base not only enhances portability but can also serve as a secondary mounting point for a light source. The base's wide, solid "C" type legs are perfect for stability and easy sandbagging, and they can even straddle obstacles when needed. For easy travel and storage, the base folds flat, and the removed riser can be utilized as a "trombone" or telescoping arm with the right clamp or accessory.

The 2.5" Grip Head from Flashpoint is another standout component of this kit. Its four V-shaped jaws provide a strong grip, and the ergonomic oversized T-shaped handle with dedicated roller bearings delivers maximum torque. The non-slip aluminum friction disc ensures stability, and the durable construction, crafted from a combination of aluminum and steel, guarantees longevity and reliability.

In essence, the Flashpoint 40" Quick Release Turtle Base C-Stand Kit is a game-changer for photographers and videographers seeking precision, versatility, and durability in their equipment. Whether you're in the studio or on location, this kit empowers you to achieve your creative vision with ease and confidence, making it an indispensable addition to your gear arsenal.
