If you have tons of light stands and tripods you take on location, you need a Tenba Padded Armored TriPak. Hexagonal, reinforced, rigid walls with padding are capped on either end by a fully unzippable top and bottom cover. Open it up and hang from a Bogen Autopole, or revers it, zip up again and it is a free-standing grip bag. A carry strap runs the length of the bag, and there is a handle on top for easy maneuvering. The PAT30 will hold light stands and tripods on lengths up to 43 inches.
