The Matthews Lowboy Vator III Double Riser is a robust crank-up lighting stand designed to support large lighting rigs. Its all-metal construction allows for a maximum load capacity of 90.7 kg, which can be raised to a height of 1.64 m and lowered to 0.88 m whilst maintaining its stability. For transport and storage, the stand folds down to a length of 1.03 m and weighs 29.9 kg. The stand's lifting function is controlled by a main crank that uses a rack-and-pinion configuration to reduce moving components in the transmission. This design requires only two moving parts, ensuring minimal wear and a longer mechanical lifespan with less maintenance required.
