A: Both SGL's Santa Fe and Albuquerque locations are open Monday through Friday,
8:30 A.M. to 5:30 P.M., excluding holidays.

A: We offer 24 hours 7 days a week service upon request. An additional opening fee will
apply.

We charge by the day and the week. The minimum rental period is one day. A `week' is
considered anything longer than 3 days. So if equipment is rented for 3-7 days, the
charge is 3 days.

A: You must provide your own insurance to cover the replacement value of the
equipment rented for all loss and damage and for liability in the case of a vehicle rental.
Certificates of insurance must come directly from the insurance company and must name
Serious Grippage and Light Co. as an additional insured and loss payee. If renting a
vehicle, insurance limits must be $1,000,000 minimum. If a vehicle is rented, driver
must be on SGL's approved drivers list.

A: All equipment is rented in good condition. All lights are tested; moving pieces are
assured to be in working order. We expect the equipment to be treated well and the
renter shall pay any repair. If a unit is damaged beyond repair, the renter shall pay the
replacement price.

A: Yes, globes are included in all rented lights, as well as spares for incandescent
(tungsten) lights and one (1) spare for each type of HMI light, unless otherwise specified.

A: No, we do not charge for burnouts, provided that all broken and burned out globes are
returned and are broken or burned out due to manufacturing defects or natural causes.

A: We accept cash, company and personal checks, credit cards (Master Card and Visa)
and purchase orders (P.O.'s) from approved accounts. If you have never rented from us
before, your first rental will require C.O.D. or a partial payment accompanied by a
refundable deposit.

A: Tungsten lights use globes (bulbs) that work like the light bulbs you have at home,
except they are bigger and use a lot more power. HMI lights use special globes that
require complex electronic transformers (called ballasts) to produce light. Practically
speaking, HMI's require more technical knowledge to use than Tungsten lights.
Photographically, HMI globes produce light that is close to the color temperature of
sunlight (5600° Kelvin, often called "blue" or "daylight balanced"), whereas Tungsten
globes give off a warmer color (3200° Kelvin, often called "orange" or "indoor
balanced").

A: We have a complete expendable store including Lee and Rosco gel and diffusion,
Permecel tape products, Krylon sprays, camera needs, and a Setwear Department.

A: Always. Please contact our Human Resource Department.

A: We have a student internship program affiliated with the College of Santa Fe, UNM,
and the NMFTP training program.
