**NOTE:  The ALZO PAN-L-LITE QUAD includes 2 bank dimming where each set of 2 light tubes is controlled by a separate dimming control. This feature allows the QUAD to loaded with both 5600K and 3200K tubes thereby allowing the dimmers to adjust the output color temperature between 5600K and 3200K.  The KINO FLO DIV-401 has only a single dimmer control and can not offer this feature.
 

ALZO PAN-L-LITES ADVANTAGES OVER KINO-FLO DIVA LIGHTS
  1. ALZO Pan-L-Lite are constructed of all Aluminum and are more durable.

KINO-FLO DIVA lights are mostly plastic and less durable.

2. ALZO Pan-L-Lite are constructed in a manner that reduces the product profile when collapsed. This allows for very compact storage of ALZO Pan-L-Lite kits. A 4 light ALZO Pan-L-Lite kit can fit in a small transport case. This is one of the primary reasons why UCLA selected ALZO over KINO. UCLA wanted a multi-light kit that would fit into the trunk of a compact car.

KINO-FLO DIVA lights do not compact well and a multi light DIVA kit requires several large transport cases.

3. ALZO Pan-L-Lite are constructed with 4 barndoors and therefore they have better light spill control

 KINO-FLO DIVA lights have only 2 barndoors.

4. ALZO Pan-L-Lite are constructed with linear slide dimmers with 1-10 intensity markings.  This allows for recording intensity settings for accurate re-lighting in multi-light sets. This is one of the primary reasons why UCLA selected ALZO over KINO.

KINO-FLO DIVA lights have a single rotary dimmer without intensity markings.

5. ALZO Pan-L-Lite QUAD lights include 2 individual intensity controls. This allows the light to be loaded with 2-5600K and 2-3200K color temperature bulbs, and this allows for the light to provide color temperature adjustment.

KINO-FLO DIVA lights have a single dimmer for all 4 bulbs and can not be set-up for color temperature adjustability.

6. ALZO Pan-L-Lites incorporate flat black aluminum honeycomb filters for improved light "hardening".

KINO-FLO sells accessory shiny plastic honeycomb filters. The reflective coating on the KINO honeycomb reduces the effectiveness of the honeycomb for light hardening.

7. ALZO Pan-L-Lites are sold complete with all accessories and light bulbs and cost a fraction of equivalent KINO-FLO lights.
