I've got a set of 2 new Einsteins and 2 older Alien Bees and I'm looking for a good bag to carry them in.

I also need the bag to hold some accessories like a few reflectors, radio triggers, cables, and umbrellas.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Lightware looks like top-of-the-line, but it's a bit pricey.

Anyone?

I'm using a Photoflex Transpac dual lite kit bag.

Roller bag with good handle.
Fits my 3 echrom dlite4s
6 stands of various sizes
6 umbrellas
3 softboxes
All cables.
Muslins
And speedrings.

Love this bag!

I looked at Lightwares offerings but their comparable bag is $800 and I just couldn't spend that much at the time.
I met the owner of lightWare at photoplus and she had me stand one the bag. I'm 250# and it held me up no problem. It's definitely a well made piece. All high end fabrics and components and made in the USA I believe.

Hey folk's, just saw this bag on Adorama's website:

Not sure about the quality of this brand, but the price sure looks good!

36" length limits you to your light stand size you can fit in it.

the Photoflex it 47" long and fits the Impact 9.5' Air Cushioned stand with plenty of spare length.
