Colortran Minibroads

[Jerrod Cordell]

So an old video productions teacher donated some lights for me...and I've never heard of them before. Haha! They're called Colortran Minibroads. They're great 650w omnis but the only problem is the stand he gave me doesn't the lights. They're old lights and don't fit the standard 1/4"-20 thread and since I'm not savvy with a lot of grip gear I was wondering if anyone could point me to a good (inexpensive) light stand for these.

Here's some pictures of the lights:

I have a set of these lights and their stands. And I still keep them in my kit. The Berkey colortran light stands were designed for travel, they collapse down to 18 1/4" and 7' fully extended, with a 3/8" mounting pin. Great for when you need to put a kicker in a low or tight space. Smith-Victor also made a cheap version of this stand with the same size mounting pin. You should be able to pick them up for nothing but I wouldn't recommend it.
