Hello, do you know where I can find online some lamps (day light) for the Alien Bees?

PS.

I'm in California and my shipping address is in California,but how can I place an order if my billing address is in Europe???????

Thank you.

The only incandescent bulbs I can find that are daylight balanced and would work in the AlienBees lights are these, although they are a lower wattage: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Philips-EcoV ... geZ1z0wujf

There are also several LED types that are Daylight balanced. We have not tested LED bulbs, so we cannot recommend them, but several people are using them, and seem to not have problems.

You should not use CFL bulbs in the AlienBees at all.

As for ordering, you would need to contact Customer Service for instructions on how to place an order with a European billing address. info@paulcbuff.com

Thank you for your answer, do you know where I can find such led?

I had sent an email about the payment and I wrote that my billing address is in europe but my shipment address is in Usa...the reply was that they not ship outside USA...
I sent to them another email, I hope this time they read better my question.

Can the Alien Bees work with fluorescent light bulb?

We do not accept new orders billed or shipped outside the US, even if delivery is within the US.




No, CFL (compact fluorescent) bulbs cannot be used in the AlienBees lights.
