Thought I'd ask here...just in case !

Shooting a music video on the 1st March.
With 0 budget frown (bloody bands!!!)

We are after 5 lights just like these:

The favour:
If we can borrow your light just for one day.

Will return it clean and undamaged (if damaged will replace obviously).

I did think of another cunning plan...but best not post it (not a crime though biggrin ).

Essentially we need 5 that are approximately the same length (1m +), just to put on the ground. We've worked with this band a few times, so they won't be dumb and step on the things.

Whereabouts are you?

I used to shoot/direct commercial music videos once upon a time.

I also have lights...

The things in the original request won't generate much light, will they...?

No, your completely right.
They are more of a 'prop' for visual effect.

Very good point !
Didn't even notice that smile
I can borrow a box or two from my dad that should allow me to hook them up (I think).

But it is still configured for 110v standard site voltage - hence the yellow cable and plug type it is supplied with.
