The Midi Vator III from Matthews is a heavy duty cranking light stand designed to support large lighting fixtures. The all-metal construction allows for a maximum load capacity of 200 lb, which can be lifted to a height of 6.7 and lowered to 3.4 while retaining stability. For transport and storage, the stand folds to 4 in length and weighs 104 lb.
The lift function of the stand is controlled by a primary crank which utilizes a rack-and-pinion configuration to reduce the moving components in the drive train. This design requires only two moving parts, which ensures minimal wear and tear and a longer mechanical lifespan with less required maintenance.
