I have the 5pc Arri Kit: (2)150’s, 300, 650, 1k and it has EASILY been the best piece of equipment I have purchased over the past few years. Like a few others have said…the box weighs about as much as a small elephant, but it’s well worth it.
Arri’s have a solid reputation, which is always a good reason to spend a few more bucks on the front end.

To answer my own question here just for general public’s sake….I did a little research and wanted to share.

You can purchase large wattage inverters such as this one – https://www.amazon.com/Duracell-813-1500-07-Power-Source-Inverter/dp/B000U0M7MY and hook it up to a car or boat battery and presto: a quiet, portable power source! Thought I would share in case anyone runs into this in the future.

Crumbled up then re-flattened, ordinary wax paper. I’ve never had a problem with it and works great!

I’ve run into this before doing weddings. I agree with everyone else, go ahead and burn the extra copies, but now you know for the future to write how many copies will be available for purchase in the contract. I usually include 2 copies in the package, and then each additional copy is anywhere between 5 and 10 dollars.

you could, but if you’d rather skip steps, 4:3 footage will work in a 16:9 project, you’ll just have to decide if you’d rather have the full image, to which it will be shrunk a little (black on sides) or you could decrease the quality and manually zoom in on the image to fill the whole screen. In either case, I think you’d be adding unneeded steps to recompress.
