ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a lamphead having a multi-positional base and removably mountable reflector flashtube assembly. The lamphead base is configured to detachably mount to a flashtube assembly such that the flashtube assembly may be interchanged with a second flashtube assembly. The flashtube assembly defines an opening and an inner chamber having a reflective surface. A flashtube is mounted within the inner chamber between the reflective surface and the opening, wherein the reflective surface extends behind the flashtube, thereby increasing the intensity of the light emitted thereby. The lamphead base may be adapted for pivotable mounting on a stand to a full vertical position without interfering with the stand. In addition, the lamphead base may include a rear surface defining one or more holes and a support structure extending rearward from the hole(s), the support structure being capable of supporting the lamp base on a substantially planar surface such that when so supported the hole is spaced from the supporting surface so that the fan may circulate air through the hole for cooling the lamphead.
