BulletX is the next generation of lighting expendable evolution. The entertainment industry adopted the standard household clothespin for lighting production use over 80 years ago. Industry professionals refer to it as “C47.” We use the “C47” on lighting fixtures on set, every day. However, since this product was not designed for the lighting industry, it must be modified daily to address the needs of lighting professionals. Converting a standard clothespin to a “C47 requires added time in a very fast paced environment! So why not have a product that is already manufactured to work correctly? Why has such an innovative industry tolerated an outdated product for so long? Introducing the BulletX! This long anticipated C-47 replacement will make your life on set so much easier. Why use old wood clothespins and binder clips on your lighting fixtures during behind the scenes shoots if you want to have the highest production appearance? The bulletX is "production black" to blend in! Why risk a "C47" releasing from the kino door during a shoot because the jaw opening is to small? The bulletX has a larger double notched 1" jaw opening and a stronger spring! Why use multiple types of clips? (clothespin, binder clips, small spring clamps and tape). The bulletX saves valuable time and replaces all of these items! Why struggle with hot scrims & burnt gel in fresnel lights? The bulletX has a tapered nose for small spaces! The bulletX is smart, simple, efficient, and it gets the job done right. What more can you ask for? Specifications: Heavy duty black oxide torsion spring ■ Dual notched jaws for superior gripping ■ Tapered bullet nose for narrow spaces ■ Size: 3.25" Length x 1" Width ■ Weight: 0.2 ounces ■ Color: Production Black matte finish ■ Material: Birch wood ■ Pack quantity: 40 ■ 2 Packs: 80 clips

Durable Bullets
I've been waiting for a product like this. It's such a simple expendable on all sets, but very important. As independent lighting technician I love these bullets. I don't mind paying a little more. They last way longer then the regular clothes pins. For me time is money so less trips to get expendables the better. I like to work fast so I find myself not even needing an extra stand or frame to rig a flag or net. I clip them right on to a kino or to an existing frame. I've had bad experiences with #1 clips. They damage my flags and kino doors. I've been using Bullet X a lot and find them to be exactly what needed, it's fast and easy to put any gel on lights. Easy and faster reach.. I haven't seen them on many sets so I think it's cool that I'm one of the first to carry them. They look cool and more professional also. I love them, but I also love my job : )

Better than the rest
These are just nicer than other c47 clips. They don't twist or get out of alignment, they open and close smoothly, the black looks more professional in front of clients. I know they cost a little more, but to me it's such a small cost I don't mind the extra because I don't really think of them as disposable as other folks do. They last forever if you just put them in a protected pouch in your case after a shoot and don't lose them.

"Executive" Clothespins - C47
Good materials, finished in black for a cleaner look on your lighting installations. These are now a regular request for my expendables list from now on.
