Each lamp weighs 1.01 kg without its yoke and runs on AC power, on a battery through the included D-Tap cables, or from a 20V/5A USB-C source.

Exceptions / Non-returnable Items

Special Order Items (Final Sale)

These items are ordered specifically for individual projects and may include, but are not limited to:

  • Professional wireless communication systems

Please note that it may take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund.

FAQ

What else do I need to use all three lights?

Add three suitable stands and the power distribution needed for the location. The kit includes only one Bowens adapter, so add more adapters if multiple heads must use Bowens softboxes at the same time.

Can STORM 80c run from batteries or USB-C?

Yes. Each head accepts 100 to 240V AC, 14.4V V-mount power through the included handheld bracket, or a 100W USB-C PD source at 20V/5A.

Is there a fan-off mode for sound recording?

Silent mode turns the fan off and Aputure specifies 0 dBA at 1m, but it limits output to 20W. Medium mode is rated at 24.4 dBA and preserves more output when the fixture can be kept away from microphones.

Can STORM 80c work as an interview key with a Bowens softbox?

At 5600K and 1m it measures 6,502 lux bare and 19,850 lux with its reflector, so it suits close interview and tabletop setups. The kit has one Bowens adapter; Aputure does not publish a universal modifier weight limit, so large softboxes need careful support and balance.

How do backorders, warranty support, production quotes, and rentals work?

The page's backorder notice controls current timing; contact Filmgear Canada for the latest supplier status rather than relying on a fixed date. Aputure lists a one-year manufacturer warranty and Filmgear Canada coordinates claims; production companies can request a quote, and rental enquiries can be referred to a partner through info@filmgearcanada.com.
