Avenger has released the Banshee, a lighting-support solution that can extend 4.4'-11.1' and accommodate payloads of up to 265 pounds.
Designed and built in Italy in collaboration with grip-and-lighting professionals, the Banshee offers a compact footprint of 25" x 18.1" when folded, maximizing space on the grip truck. It features multi-direction, lockable braked wheels; puncture-proof foam-filled tires with chunky treads; a dual-handled crank and chain-driven column with safety lock; a 1-1/8" junior receiver; an adjustable levelling leg; and wind-brace tie-down mounting points on the column.
When unfolded, the 5.3' footprint provides optimum stability as well as plenty of clearance moving around set. The Banshee’s lowest extension is 4.4', enabling safe loading.
The Banshee lists for $8,900. Avenger products are available in North America through A.C. Lighting.
