Product Information
Full details
The Aputure MC 12-Light Wireless Charging Case is designed for lighting technicians, rental houses, and professional film crews who need a streamlined, efficient way to store and manage multiple Aputure MC RGBWW lights. Its primary benefit is the combination of secure hard-shell storage with advanced electromagnetic induction wireless charging, which eliminates the need to plug in individual lights, though users should note that the case is a significant investment in size and weight compared to individual carry bags.

FAQs
Does this case include the Aputure MC lights?
No, the case is a charging and storage solution designed to hold the lights, which are sold separately.
Can I charge other USB devices using this case?
Yes, you can utilize the three 5V/2A USB ports to charge various devices alongside your MC lights.
Is the case waterproof?
It is a durable hard-shell case designed for professional protection, but it should be kept away from standing water and severe weather to prevent damage to the internal electronics.
How long does it take to charge 12 lights?
Charging times are comparable to using standard wired charging, but because all units charge simultaneously, you significantly reduce overall turnaround time.
Can I use this case on flights?
Due to its size and weight, it is generally recommended to check the specific carry-on requirements of your airline, as it will likely need to be checked as cargo.
