Could I use this for light stands?

Yes as long as they are about the size of a good tripod, it would be perfect I would say and make life a lot easier for you, not good for video at all tho.

If you extend the legs out to the max, what is the length from "center of foot poin"t to the next leg's "center foot point"?

If your light stand has three legs like a tripod , then yes it should be compatible.

If your light stand is just like a tripod stand, yes. The width and size of tripod/light stand are adjustable. The wheels produce a smooth glide. Actually, I'm ordering another.

Yes, but you will need to sandbag them because the stands are not heavy and can tip. Good news is the lights are not hot and the rig is therefore pretty safe.

I don't think you need anything. All the clamp lights I can think of would work great on these stands.

You would have to get a light stand to tripod adapter for the thread diameter of the tripod head. Even then, I'm not sure I would use it. The movements of a lightstand are not nearly as stable as a traditional tripods. By that I mean when you loosen the sections on these they drop real fast, and are spring dampened, which may cause some issues with the weight of the camera bouncing, and possibly flipping off the tripod head, because of the force of the camera on the head.

Looks wise I don't know, but the stand is very sturdy & I think it would be fine for your setup.

Sorry, I bought them to weight down my lights as the stands aren't very stable. I'm a photographer. They seem fine, should work for what you want. :-)

no, You would have to use a mounting bracket of some sort. They can be found for around $10 for a basic stand at wally world.

I built my own stand with aluminum poles at each end to suspend light. By the way, the light works great! Heavy gauge wiring and low heat.

Sure can. Don't own stands, myself, but the speakers are set up to be mounted.

If you didn't attach the stand then I supposse you could. It doesn't have attachments for that though, because it is meant to be standing. There are some cheaper ones on here specifically for wall mounting! Good luck!

Definitely! This is a good strong and heavy softbox. I wouldn't use anything but a heavy duty lightstand with any monolight I own.

Yes, you can use just the top two tiers, definitely! There is a different set of 'inserts' to use if you're not using the whole stand. Another idea is to use just the bottom square and then put some sort of decorations in the middle. Hope it works for you!

Yes, you can but I do want to clear up one thing about this stand, it's very cheaply made. When I got it in I said to myself "you get what you pay for" I expected the bottom piece to at least have some weight to it but it's light as a feather. As far as a budget stand it's "ok"

I use this: HAKUBA USA INC PSTC400 LIGHT STAND CASE for this stand and 3 others. Works great.

Tri-pod, no. It's designed for light stands. You could pick one up here, but don't buy the cheapest one. While these aren't overly heavy, with modifiers on them they can put a strain on a weak stand.

If you really want to use this then buy an inexpensive light stand that was prob. suggested with this light socket

No I wouldn't recommend that at all unless you can figure out a mounting method. The stand is really my only complaint - it's really cheap. I also bought a set of bulbs that do the same thing and put them in my ceiling fan. That worked awesome! Might be a solution to your needs. Light is good, stand sucks! :)
