FAQ

The connector will not twist to lock into my STORM 400x. How does it go in?

The connector keys into the plug position slot on the control box's PowerCon IN socket. To release it, pull back the silver release tab and rotate the connector counterclockwise. Aputure says not to pull directly on the cable.

How many watts does the STORM 400x draw from the wall?

Aputure rates the STORM 400x at 500W maximum power consumption for 400W maximum output, on 100V to 240V AC. At 120V that is about 4.2A, within this cable's 7.5A rating.

How many STORM 400x lights can share one circuit?

Each STORM 400x draws up to 500W, about 4.2A at 120V. Add up every light on the circuit and stay under its breaker rating. If you need an extension cord, Aputure says to use one rated for at least the amperage the fixture requires.
