RickyJust wanted to let you know we received the 1 moon balloon from Fenigal(China) and have done our due diligence/testing andwe are so happy with it. We' d like to move forward with the attached invoice. Please send this ACH ASAP so Harry and his team can get moving with the production of the other 9 Balloons. -
DimitriAwesome, as soon we received the product, we tested some of them !!.. really impressive.. the quality is really good.. -
MarjorieI put these in my clients party balloons which were a big hit. Worked great for what I needed. I will definitely get these again for other events. -
AnastasiaAwesome addition to a party! These were great! Everyone loved them! Worked perfect, easy to use! -
LisseteI had the lights turned on (except for testing purposes yet), but they are a nice size and seem to be pretty bright. I have been looking for battery operated lights for my projects and these seem like they will work nicely as they are individual so you can use as few or as many as you want -

Product Description
HAFE TX Series – Steel Film Light Stands
Load capacity that defies gravity. Footprints that stick to the floor.
Product Overview
When a light must not move, when every millimeter of the frame depends on absolute stillness, you don't reach for any stand — you reach for the HAFE TX Series. Engineered from the ground up for the relentless demands of modern cinematography and broadcast, the TX range pairs brute payload ratings with surgical precision. From the ultra-low, tank-like TX-01 and TX-02 (fixed 150 mm platforms holding a staggering 80 kg) to the fast-deploying, variable-height TX-20, TX-30, and TX-40, this family covers every lighting position a gaffer could draw on a napkin. Steel, black powder coat, and a no-compromise design language give you the last light stands you will ever need to buy.

The HAFE Solution
Most stand families ignore the extremes — either you wrestle a heavy crank-up for a low-angle 18K or you stack apple boxes under a lightweight stand and pray. The TX Series erases that gap. HAFE envisioned a unified ecosystem where a single truck can carry the floor-hugging, 80 kg-rated TX-01/TX-02 alongside the full-range TX-20, TX-30, and TX-40. Every model shares the same 25×25 mm square steel leg profile, the same grip culture, and the same sense of indestructibility. The result? A grip team can flow from a 15 cm high-key floor kicker to a 2.7 m backlight without switching their mental torque wrench. Less setup time, fewer variables, more storytelling.
Product Advantages
Unmatched Load Capacity
TX-01 and TX-02 swallow 80 kg payloads at a fixed 150 mm height — ideal for heavy HMI heads, large-format softboxes, and boom arms that demand a center of gravity kissing the floor. The telescopic TX-20 to TX-40 hold a solid 18 kg even with the columns fully raised, outperforming most stands in their weight class.
Rock-Solid, All-Steel Architecture
Every tube, riser, and leg is drawn from high-tensile steel. The progressive tube diameters — 25, 30, and 35 mm (45 mm top stage on the TX-40) — create a conical geometry that fights deflection before it starts.
25×25 mm Square Legs
Square tubing resists twisting far better than round stock. The generous footprints (up to 930 mm on select models) plant the stand like a tripod oak, and the heavy-duty rubber feet absorb vibration even on soundstage concrete.
Dual-Profile Use
A low-fixed platform when you need it, a tall-reach when you don't. TX-01 and TX-02 are your dedicated junior-floor stands; TX-20, 30, and 40 give you instant baby-pin elevation. Every stand interfaces with industry-standard grip heads and mounting pins without adapters.
Scratch-Resistant Powder Coat
A matte black, solvent-resistant finish keeps reflections dead and corrosion at bay — from the salt spray of a beach location to the chaos of a gear truck.
Compact Fold & Solo Portability
Closed lengths as short as 420 mm mean TX stands slip into congested grip carts. Integrated leg locks open with one hand, and the balanced carry weight makes a one-person strike a reality.
Application Scenarios
- Studio & Broadcast - Perimeter backlights, interview key lights, and overhead booms on the TX-40, while TX-01 crouches under set pieces with an 80 kg load that would turn other stands into modern art.
- Feature Film & Commercial - Rapid location changes demand the closed height of the TX-20; its 1470 mm max reach pops a 4×4 frame right where the DP sketches it.
- Low-Angle Heavy Lifting - A TX-01 with a junior pin supports large fresnels or a menace arm just above the deck. No sag. No drift. No compromises.
- Live Events & Houses of Worship - TX-30 combines a generous 2100 mm height with an 830 mm footprint that doesn't invade the audience sightline.
- Extreme Environments - Steel over aluminum when wind, sand, and rough handling are on the call sheet. TX stands thrive where consumer gear gives up.
Structural Comparison
| Feature | TX-01 / TX-02 (Fixed Low Boys) | TX-20 / TX-30 / TX-40 (Variable-Height) |
|---|---|---|
| Design Intent | Maximum load at minimum height; serves as a mobile floor plate for cinema lighting | Rapid height adjustment across a wide range; standard 3-section telescopic column |
| Height Adjustability | Fixed 150 mm — a single immovable platform | Continuous variable from folded to max working height |
| Riser Profile | Solid steel block / non-telescoping | 3-section telescoping with knurled locking collars, diameter steps of 25/30/35 mm (45 mm on TX-40) |
| Payload | 80 kg — heavy enough to anchor a human-rated rig | 18 kg — optimized for typical fixture and modifier weight while maintaining one-handed operation |
| Leg Geometry | 25×25 mm square legs; TX-01 footprint 830 mm, TX-02 footprint 930 mm | 25×25 mm square legs; TX-20/40 footprint 930 mm, TX-30 footprint 830 mm |
| Best Use | Floor-bank lighting, severe low-angle work, heavy remote heads | Key, fill, rim, and high-angle backlighting; quick on-set repositions |
Choosing between TX-01 and TX-02 is purely a footprint decision — the narrower TX-01 slips into tight corners; the wider TX-02 earns its place when lateral stability is paramount.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How can the TX-01 and TX-02 hold 80 kg when the adjustable stands are rated 18 kg?
A: The fixed 150 mm design eliminates any riser joints, locking mechanisms, and tubing overlap — the three main points where telescopic stands lose rigidity. With no moving column, the entire structure behaves as a single steel block, which allows the 80 kg rating with a generous safety factor.
Q: Is the load capacity measured at minimum or maximum height?
A: All load ratings are established with the stand at its lowest height. At maximum extension, always use sandbags and adhere to the standard rule of thumb — limit payload to roughly 50-60% of the stated capacity to account for leverage and on-set dynamics.
Q: What kind of mounting pin does each model come with?
A: TX-01 and TX-02 ship with a captive 1-1/8" (28 mm) Junior pin, fully welded for the 80 kg load class. TX-20, TX-30, and TX-40 come with a dual-size 5/8" (16 mm) Baby pin with a 1/4"-20 threaded top, compatible with any industry-standard grip head.
Q: Are the leg tips replaceable?
A: Yes. The heavy-duty rubber feet can be unscrewed and replaced in the field. Spare sets are available directly from HAFE Spares.
Q: Can I install casters or wheel sets?
A: The leg tubes accept standard 25 mm caster adapters and wheel-brake units. Many crews fit the TX-01/TX-02 with low-profile wheels for easy positioning under heavy fixtures.
Q: What is the maintenance routine?
A: Wipe down after sand or salt exposure, occasionally lubricate locking knobs with a dry PTFE spray, and inspect leg locks before each shoot. That is pretty much it.
