Our grip truck is an Isuzu NPR-HD with a 16-foot box, lift gate, and curbside door. The Isuzu’s cab-over design (meaning the cab sits over the engine) makes it incredibly compact and maneuverable, such that it can fit into some lots and spaces that other box trucks and even sprinter-style vans cannot.
Our truck is loaded with full complement of grip and electric hardware: everything you need for your next shoot. Check out the contents of the 3-ton package below. If you need a smaller package, check out our 1-Ton Grip Truck and Lighting Kit.

2 x Godox KNOWLED MG1200Bi Bi-Color LED
These lights have a tunable color temperature range between 2800k and 6500k, but still manage to be brighter than an Aputure Storm 1200X or Arri M18.
Both lights comes with a full compliment of reflectors: 15-, 30-, 45-, and 60-degree. The wider reflectors allow for a broad wash of light while the narrower ones concentrate the light for greater output. Compared to other similar LED fixtures, when set to 5600k, this light outputs nearly a full stop more light with each respective comparable reflector.
Both lights are also equipped with a 14-inch fresnel lens with barn doors for more intricate shaping and control.
This kit also includes a single 59-inch parabolic soft box with an egg crate and magic cloth and 1/2 grid diffusion.
The MG1200Bi is IP54 rated for water and dust resistance which means, in part, that it can be left out in the rain with no problems.

2 x Prolycht Orion 675 FS RGBACL COB Lights
The Prolycht Orion 675 is a full-color, full spectrum cob light. It's the Swiss Army Knife of professional lighting. It can produce white light at any temperature from 1,800k to 20,000k, and any color of light you can imagine. Unlike most RGB fixtures, The Orion uses an RGBACL array (red, green, blue, amber, cyan, lime) to create color. As a result, colors are far more saturated than with normal RGB lights. White light is created using the full spectrum, so skin tones are far more pleasing and natural looking.
Because of the way the light engine works, using all the colors to make light, the Orion loses very little output when changing color temperatures. As a result, it outputs greater intensity than any bi-color light in the same wattage range, and can even rival daylight-only fixtures.
In addition to all that, it can simulate Lee and Rosco gels and create lighting effects like fire, police lights and so forth. Unlike other cob lights, the Orion doesn't have a separate power box that you need to attach to your light stand. Everything is contained in the head.
Our kit includes 2 Orion 675s, Prolycht's 10-inch fresnel and barn doors, and an assortment of reflectors and soft boxes, including the Prolycht 60-inch dome and 35-inch lantern.

Godox Knowled M600Bi Bi-color COB Light
This Bowens mount bi-color light manages to defy conventional wisdom in that it is as bright or brighter than similar COB lights made by its competitors, even when those lights are daylight only. It comes with a 30° reflector and a 10° to 35° 10-inch FLS10 fresnel lens with barn doors. And of course it works with all of our Bowens mount soft boxes, domes, lanterns, and so forth.

Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-color COB Light
This is a bowens mount, bi-color COB light. It has a color temperature range from 2700K-6500K, and includes magenta and green tint adjustment if you need to match another, less precise source. The kit includes a 55° reflector, and the light works with our many other Bowens-mount accessories, including a 5-foot and 4-foot dome soft box, a 3-foot lantern, several rectangular soft boxes, and a 10-inch fresnel with barn doors. The light can be operated using V-mount batteries for remote shoots.
-
-
Nanlite Forza 500 Daylight COB Light

Includes a 10-inch fresnel with barn doors.

2 x Godox KNOWLED F400Bi 4x2 Flexible Bi-color LED Mats
These very light, very bright LED mats from Godox make great 2-person interview key lights. They weigh very little and can be boomed out over your subject without getting in your shot, but with their 4ft by 2ft surface area, still provide a very big, soft source.
Each mat comes with a soft box, diffusion, a 40° egg crate, an 80° egg crate, and a nifty mount that holds the four corners taut while giving you a baby spud to attach to. Each runs at 400 watts, so you won't want for brightness, and they can be tuned from 2700K to 8500K so you can dial in just the color temperature you need.
The kit is rated IP65 for dust and water resistance, so it can survive a fair bit of mistreatment from the elements. These lights are slightly bigger, slightly brighter, and weigh slightly less than the comparable instrument from LiteMat.

2 x Godox KNOWLED F200Bi 2x2 Flexible Bi-color LED Mats

6 x Quasar Crossfade 4ft 6-bank
Each of these fixtures contain six 4-foot Quasar Crossfade self-ballasted LED tubes. They are mounted in a Kino Flo 4ft/4bank fixture, but have been customized to be able to hold 6 tubes instead of the customary 4. Each tube can have its color temperature dialed in from 2000 Kelvin up to 6000.
Each tube can be removed from the fixture to be used individually for smaller lighting tasks. Each of these tubes has only 1/3 of a stop less output than a full Kino 4ft 4bank, so they are useful alone, and produce a massive amount of light when used together. Furthermore, they are dimmable, so they can be fine-tuned to the exact amount of output needed.
Each tube only consumes 50 watts of power at full output, so the whole fixture at maximum power only requires 300 watts, the same as an old fluorescent Kino Flo 4ft 4bank.
Kit includes 2 dopChoice SnapGrids for Kino Flo 4ft 4-banks.
-
-
3 x Quasar Crossfade 2ft 6-bank
Just like the 4-foot banks above, these 2-foot fixtures consist of a Kino Flo shell customized to hold 6 Quasar Crossfade tubes. Each tube can be removed from the fixture and used independently, each can have their color temperature dialed in from 2000 to 6000 Kelvin, and each is dimmable.
2-foot Quasar Crossfades only require 25 watts of power per tube at full power, so the whole fixture with 6 tubes inside only requires 150 watts.
