Clamp for attaching single light to tripod/stand

[bonzodog99]

As a singer, I currently use two equinox quadzilla lights at the back of the stage on a goal post. I would rather have them either side of me so wanted to know if there was a bracket you could buy that you attach to the top of a pole/tripod and then hang the light on. I suppose like a large C bracket. The quadzilla is not a huge light but is too big to attach to the front of the stand. It would need to be above the top of the pole.

 

Any ideas??

Something like this would do the job

Would end up looking something like this

Depending on the stands a suitable spigot is the normal method,the spigot goes into top of stand and gives you a 10mm thread to attach the lantern too

While engineering are making me some colour frames I appear to have lost some spigots.

 

So I'm getting some made as well I hope, one question I have wanted to know the answer to for AGES - why do spigots have the 2 sets of dips in? and why is one so big is one about half the size not enough ?

Spiggots are also used for hanging things! So the two reduced diameter places are where retaining pins fit to allow rotation but not falling.

Ahh makes sense, it's just I have only seen them on various floor stands.
