Wakelite Quick Turnaround Ring
- Product Code: ga163184
-
The Quick Turnaround Ring from Wakelite is a handy accessory composed by two mounting pieces. The elastic black one easily wraps around your flash head, while the red one is placed behind to hold the brand's back plate and its compatible reflectors. It ensures a secure attachment for the Wakelite flash modifiers, also allowing for both landscape and portrait orientations. Wakelite flash modifiers can be used to bounce light towards your subject while pointing the flash upwards, but the quick turnaround ring allows you to rotate the back cover to the other side of the flash for use in portrait mode.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. The picture for the 9930OP Chimera Triolet Flood Light with Octaplus Speed Ring shows an Octaplus speed ring without quick release (9890OP), but the included equipment lists an Octaplus Speed Ring with quick release (9890QR). Which is it?
A: This kit would include a Chimera Octaplus Dedicated Speed Ring for Triolet which has fixed corners rather than quick release corners. Chimera only manufacturers their Quick Release Speed Rings in the 4 corner type.
Q: 2. is this compatible with the CAME-TV Boltzen 60w Fresnel Fanless lighting kit ?
A: No
Q: 3. Can I use a dimmer with this setup?
A: Hey JC, yes you can. This one is good : a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/755346-REG/Impact_D_1000_D1000_1_000W_AC_Dimmer.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/755346-REG/Impact_D_1000_D1000_1_000W_AC_Dimmer.html/aBack when I got it, I didn't even know you could plug a dimmer so I got a 500w light bulb as well.
Q: 4. does it work 500w
A: The Chimera Mogul Base Lamp - 500 Watts/120 Volts - for Lantern, B&H # CHLM500L, would be a 500 watt bulb that is compatible for use with the Chimera Triolet Mogul Base Flood Light.
Q: 5. Can I put a CFL bulb in this ?
A: The Chimera Socket Adapter - Mogul to Medium Base, B&H # CHRMMB, would allow you to use a CFL bulb, such as either the Eiko Spiral Fluorescent Lamp (85W/120V), B&H # EIFS85, or the Eiko Spiral Fluorescent Lamp (105W / 120V), B&H # EIFS105Z, with the Chimera Video Pro Plus 1 Triolet Kit.
Q: 6. So to clarify , this has a Bowen’s mount but the led itself needs a screw on Bowen’s mount - the screw on I need to buy that separately?
A: If I understand your inquiry, if the LED light fixture you own has the Bowens S-mount to connect light modifiers to the light fixture, then no additional accessory needs to be purchased as the CAME-TV Foldable Quick Setup Softbox with Bowens Speed Ring (15.8 x 15.8") includes a Bowens S-mount speed ring with the purchase. This would all depend on the design of the LED light fixture you own (you would have to check its specifications). The Bowens S-mount is not a screw-on mount; it is a bayonet mount connection.
Q: 7. Does it come with both E26 and 2-pin adapters?
A: This version B&H # CHTE does come with a 2-pin and a E26 adapter.
Q: 8. How hot does this light get, and what is the expected bulb life?
A: Whie we do not have a specific temperature rating, as the Chimera Video Pro Plus 1 Triolet Kit (220V) does use a 1000W tungsten bulb, the light fixture does produce quite a bit of heat. It is advised to use gloves designed for lighting, such as either the Setwear Hothand Gloves (Large), B&H # SESHH05010, or the ARRI Leather Grip Gloves (Large), B&H # AR850010 (depending on the size you need) when using the unit. The Chimera Mogul Base Lamp has a estimated life expectancy of approximately 2000 hours.
Q: 9. For use with the Chimera Medium Pancake, what is the difference between this Speed Ring and this one?? a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/463404-REG/Chimera_9930_Triolet_Mogul_Base_Flood.html target= _blank http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/463404-REG/Chimera_9930_Triolet_Mogul_Base_Flood.html/a
A: I ma sorry but I am not sure which two speed rings you are trying to compare. A regular speed ring only has the pole holes on the outside edges. When assembling a chimera (or similar) soft box, those poles are hard to get in the ring. Especially the last one where the final formation of the soft box or pancake lantern takes it's final shape. The one that comes with the Triolet, or sold separately as a Quick Release type, has the four pol mounting holes that swivel inward. once the pol in in the hole, you can easily use the pole as leverage to bend outward. As it does so, the mount snaps and locks in place. In assembling a pancake lantern, this becomes even more important because the quick release ring helps avoid all the stumbling around in getting the fabric correct on the mount and wire frame. It simply makes the job of set-up and tear down much easier. I got a triolet last December with the quick release speed ring and it has been a joy to work with. Not only is the panacake lantern a joy to light with, but the assembly is quick.Greg KubitschekLincoln, NE
