I purchased the ring light but do I need something else to support it?

Yes. You will need a standard light stand. The ringlight will attach to the stand in the same manner in which you would attach any other professional strobe to a light stand..

Yes, you need a light stand. I bought one of the Impact Air-Cushioned Heavy Duty Light Stand - Black, 9.5 feet (2.9m) and it works just fine. Not a perfect fit but when you tighten it on it's pretty secure.

I had a standard stand that supported my mono light. I think any one would work.

U can not add anything to mounts, the actual brackets have a lock groove in them to secure the light from moving, once u tighten it down

Yes. It will hold the ring light. How ever. Try not to put anything over 5 pounds on this particular item. It has a decent build but not for everyday wear and tear.

NO, you will need a lightstand- had mine for a couple of years, dropped it the other night, still working fine. Excellent investment for the price

No. It just has the single light it comes with. But you might be able to find one online.

Nope, you need a ballast. Plug your light into a ballast then plug your ballast into a normal wall socket.

Use a shim to tilt the light enough that the light is directed to your needs. A little "out of the box" mounting could be fitted to not only serve your needs but could be made to look like it should be mounted that way.

I don't think you need anything. All the clamp lights I can think of would work great on these stands.

When you attach the light to whatever you are attaching it to that acts as your ground. So you just need a positive run to the light. You can ground the adapter to the light as well I would think

either will work. I used the screws provided but temporarily used the adhesive to hold the light in place while I installed the screws.

If this is a new install, your going to need the ballast for each light. I had to return and purchase the conversion kit by the same brand. I think I paid 50 bucks, note the instructions are worthless and in a foreign language. I found out after a while of messing with them that the retaining ring DOES come off. The conversion kit is a plug and play. Comes with both HID lamps,ballast and harness.

Yes you need to purchase the speed ring. There is only one way to put the alien bee on the soft box it slips right on to the light.

Not really. There is a stud with the wires inside it that is screwed into the light and has 2 nuts on it to mount. It worked for me without making any additional mounts. I did unscrew the stud from the housing though and put red locktite on it and screwed it back in to make it more secure.

The light was included in my order, however make sure you check the item description. I noticed some sellers are selling w/o the light.

We used the stand from a halogen worklight assembly (the kind with two lamp fixtures). We just removed the fixture assembly (which is attached with a wingnut) and replaced it with the spot, which mounts via a single hole in the center of the bracket. Because it is relatively lightweight, we had no problems. And, yes, it's a great light, especially for the price.
