Does anyone know what the heat rating on the PLM umbrellas are?

I would love trying to use them for my video stuff with either a small HMI or hot light (tungsten). I know Chimera rates there by tungsten watts. Like 500 or 100 watts.

I guess I could just give it a go and see if the silver starts melting,

Thanks

At least 250W when properly mounted. We dont make continuous lighting, so we dont rate anything higher.
