- EcoFlow DELTA 3 Max: 2048Wh with 2400W rated AC output
- EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3: 4096Wh and 4000W output for high-draw setups. It weighs 113.5 lb, so plan a two-person carry on stairs

What's a typical grip kit for a 1-day shoot?
For a one-day commercial, music video or interior set, a good start is 3 to 4 Matthews C-stands, 4 to 6 sandbags in 15 lb or 25 lb fills, apple boxes (full and half), a 6x6 breakdown frame with a silk or grid and an ultra-bounce, a few flags and floppies, a Sachtler tripod with a fluid head and a Tilta Boulder cart. Each piece is a separate rental, so add what you need to one booking. Not sure? Call or text +1 437 747 6030 before you book.
Can I rent grip and power without renting a camera?
Yes. Grip, rigging, camera support and power book on their own or in the same cart as cameras and lenses. Bring your own body and rent only the stands, sandbags, frames, fabrics, an EcoFlow station or a Tilta Hydra car mount you need. Building the full package? Add microphones and crew comms from audio rental to the same booking and pickup at 777 The Queensway.
What's the weight rating on your C-stands and sandbags?
The Matthews 40" double riser C-stand is rated to 22 lb and reaches 10.5 ft. The Matthews aluminum digital combo stand is rated to 25 lb, the Matthews Low Boy combo stand to 72 lb and the Avenger 2K triple riser roller combo stand to 88 lb. Sandbags come in 15 lb and 25 lb fills. Call or text +1 437 747 6030 with the fixture and we'll match the stand and sandbags.
Do you stock expendables (gaff tape, gels, batteries, clothespins)?
Batteries, yes: V-mount batteries and chargers, Sony NP-F batteries and a D-tap splitter cable are rentals you can add to your booking. Gaff tape, gels and other expendables are not in the online store, so call or text +1 437 747 6030 before your shoot to ask, or bring your own.
