FAQ

Do I need a junior stand for the STORM 1200x head?

Yes. The STORM 1200x yoke has a 28mm (1.125 in) junior pin, so it mounts in a junior receiver. Tighten it in the receiver, then set tilt with the disc brake handle on the yoke.

If a fault follows the head when I swap control boxes and cables, can I replace just the head?

Yes. The STORM 1200x Lamp Head is sold separately as a replacement part, so it goes straight onto your existing STORM 1200x Control Box and 8-pin weatherproof head cable.

How do modifiers lock onto the 1200x head?

Insert the modifier into the Bowens bayonet and turn the Pro-Lock handle clockwise until it locks; turn it back to the open position to remove it. The ProLock ring clamps the modifier, so heavier optics stay aligned with the light.
