robin_onishi Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 I have a pair of Elinchrom style rx monolights and am interested in getting a portable power pack for outside/location work. I know this is a stupid question, but are these lights compatible with the regular power packs or do I need something that is AC? The Elinchrom power packs seem to have the same controls on the power pack that are on the monolights and I am assuming that either there is redundancy or incompatability. Can someone just review the basics for me so I can make an informed purchase? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_reinacker Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Your RX monolights require AC power; you could use a generator, or a battery/inverter. Elinchrom's Ranger RX battery pack is designed for Ranger heads (or other heads with an adapter)...it will _not_ power the RX monolights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin_onishi Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 Do you have any recommendations of appropriate generators or battery/inverters? Is the Ranger RX sytem, color/light compatable with the monolights? How much power do they have? Are they a good system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
