    Been looking for this for a while, I had found everything but the idea that I could just swap colored tube guards over the lights. Smart

    Definitely getting a set of these. And color guards as well. Currently filming green screen work and have a slight green cast on my arm, I will use these to combat that as I can’t dim the lights I have for lighting the green screen. ( and I’ll use the extras for my workshop) thanks for posting.

    Hi Tyler thanks a lot for the info really appreciate it. One question are you sure the color sleeves you are recommending fit the T5 type bulbs? The Amazon website/vendor says that for the color sleeves a re-stocking fee will be made if the item is returned. The KastLite Store vendor note says: "PLEASE NOTE: These fit T8 Lamps with a 1-1/4” Diameter only". So do they fit the T5 lamp or not?

    • @Ranstone
      @Ranstone Před rokem

      T stands for "tube" and the following number just is the diameter in 8ths of an inch.
      Because we're cutting and wrapping the gels around the bulbs, T8 is larger than T5, so it will naturally wrap around easier.
      T8, being larger may be too large for other applications, and not fit, but for this project, If your lights are T5, (The linked lights are T5) then T5, T8, or even T12 will work fine.
