I'll have to try and track one down and test it out</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/battery-powered-lighting#post-37539 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:30:45 +0000 chrisColorado 37539@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> I would use Mini Mag flashlights. Seriously!</p> <p>I'm a former Boy Scout and I think mini Mags are great!! They are small, light, battery powered, and the top can do amazing stuff: you can screw/unscrew while pointing it at a background for strange background effects(background light), or it unscrews all the way off for a candle like effect(fill light) and obviously makes a great point light. I think you can even get special holders where you can hook it to stuff.</p> <p>Good luck! sounds like fun.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/battery-powered-lighting#post-37538 Wed, 18 Jun 2008 16:36:13 +0000 ozvideo 37538@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> Hi!</p> <p> Im going to Bali to make a doco for an aid organisation in Australia. I have my own equipment but for lighting. As there wont be many power points around, i was thinking of battery powered lighting gear, but i dont know where to start looking - does anyone have any ideas of the best way to go about this?</p> <p> </p> <p>Cheers!</p> <p>  </p>
