Tenba Car Case 1x1 LED 2-Panel

The Tenba Car Case 1x1 LED 2-Panel is an industrial-grade, heavy-duty shipping vault engineered for lighting directors, directors of photography (DPs), and gaffers. Precision-tailored to accommodate two standard 1 x 1 foot LED light panels—even with barndoors attached—this case provides dedicated space for essential power cables and a delicate gel filter kit.

By combining an unyielding, puncture-proof internal thermoplastic skeleton with a highly weather-resistant ballistic nylon exterior shell, this case delivers maximum protection for delicate LED arrays. It bridges the gap between bulky, rigid flight cases and soft gear bags, allowing solo operators or crew members to easily transport a complete multi-point interview lighting setup.

Product Features in Detail

Dual LED Panel Layout with Barndoor Clearance
The interior chamber is meticulously proportioned to house a pair of 1 x 1 ft LED fixtures simultaneously. The specialized divider partitions are spaced generously, allowing lighting crews to pack their panels with folding barndoors left fully mounted to the chassis, completely eliminating time-consuming breakdown and setup routines on fast-paced location sets.

Puncture-Proof ABS Thermoplastic Framework
The core structural defense relies on an internal layer of rigid ABS thermoplastic. This high-density shield behaves like an armor plate, providing exceptional shock absorption and a level of puncture resistance that soft-sided bags cannot match, effectively blocking sharp gear legs and heavy grip hardware from crushing the fragile LED bulbs or surface-mount diodes inside.

Industrial 1680D Ballistic Nylon Exterior
The outer chassis is wrapped in ultra-rugged, authentic 1680 Denier Ballistic Nylon. This heavy-duty, tightly woven technical textile provides maximum resistance to abrasion, tearing, and scuffing from being hauled in and out of cargo vans, while a premium water-repellent coating ensures internal electronics stay perfectly dry during rainy loading dock transfers.

Top-Mounted Light Stand Rigging Straps
The top exterior of the case integrates adjustable structural straps engineered to expand your mobile lighting footprint. This functional layout allows operators to cinch down two compact light stands, umbrella brackets, or boom arms directly onto the top of the case, consolidating a complete, two-light interview kit into a single, hand-carried luggage unit.

Integrated Hand Truck Piggyback Architecture
To make navigating busy convention centers, city blocks, or airport terminals effortless, the back of the case features two heavily reinforced, sewn-in straps. These loops allow the entire panel case to slide cleanly over the telescoping handle of a rolling multi-cart, luggage stack, or hand truck, locking it in place for secure, hands-free piggyback transit.

Protective Gel Sleeve & Tricot Staging
The interior partitions are wrapped in a dual combination of smooth pack cloth and brushed tricot, preventing finish wear and scratches on your lighting fixtures. Additionally, the case features an integrated acetate internal sleeve specifically designed to hold delicate lighting gels and color-correction sheets flat, keeping them crisp, uncreased, and protected from shifting power cables.
