What Mounting Options Does The Ice Light 3 Provide?Updated 2 months ago


The built-in NATO rail on the IceLight 3 lets you slide on any NATO-compatible bracket or accessory instantly.

Additionally, the Ice Light 3 includes multiple 1/4″-20 threaded sockets along its body for versatile rigging.

There are five 1/4″-20 mounts on the IceLight 3:

  • Two on each side of the LED tube on the NATO Rail.
  • One at each end of the LED tube.

Use these quarter-20 mounts to add clamps, brackets, or tripods for custom setups.

Can I mount the Ice Light 3 without the battery handle attached?

Yes, the removable end cap features its own 1/4″-20 thread so you can mount the IceLight 3 solo.

This allows studio-only configurations without the battery handle. Perfect for permanent rigs or long-term shoots.

What anti-twist mounting points does the Ice Light 3 offer?

The IceLight 3 has two 3/8″ anti-twist sockets to secure it against rotation.

Use the anti-twist mounts when you need rock-solid positioning:

  • Two 3/8″-16 anti-twist holes located opposite each other on the tube.
  • Prevents the light from spinning when under load or on windy shoots.
