Portable Lights Backpack Recommendations

[Seba]

Hi TP,

I'm looking for some recommendations for a strong backpack for our two work Godox AD600s.

We have similar Profotos, think they are B1x or something and they have their own backpack, but it has some weak points and has been repaired a few times, so looking for some recomemndations for a backpack for the Godox's.

Thanks,

Seb

Will this one do it? https://www.lencarta.com/gb/godox-c...136/fullscreen/product/m=and&q=godox+backpack I had a good look at it when it first came into stock, it seemed pretty well-made to me. I think you'd need to check that your heads will fit it

Or there's this one, which I haven't seen, designed for the AD1200, again you'd need to check the dimensions https://www.lencarta.com/gb/portabl...136/fullscreen/product/m=and&q=godox+backpack

Does it need to be a backpack? I prefere hard cases for lights. Music shops sell flight cases in all sorts of sizes.

Yeah, kind of does. Sometimes you'll be on a job off somewhere random and and you're own and need to transport things from parking to location so need as many hands free as possible, so a backpack works better for this. It's annoying.

Maybe a normal rucksack rather than a camera type bag? I used an old bergan some years back, I lined it with stiff card, and added foam kipmat material for padding. That survived a dip in a river (with me) after a temp bridge collapsed while I was crossing, and the gear stayed dry.... Unlike me....
