A primary concern is <a href="/wiki/Guide_number" title="Guide number">guide number</a>. Each monolight has a guide number specifying its range at certain film speeds. A common misconception is that the watt-second measurement is an indication of light output. It is not; it is a measure of electrical energy.<sup id="cite_ref-hi-tech_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hi-tech-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> While the electrical energy used in firing the flash is usually the most significant factor, light output is also affected by the efficiency of the flash tube and the capacitor. </p><p>In addition to power output, monolights have other, special considerations as they are meant to be used for large-scale, studio work. Portability, consistency, feature set, parts availability and cost are prime considerations in monolights. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Portability">Portability</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Monolight&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Portability"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Monolights are larger than most on-camera strobes.

Consequently, monolights usually weigh more than on-camera flashes. As monolights need to be placed on light stands, the size and weight of each light stand must also be considered. This size and weight must also be weighed against a pack and head system, which typically have a much weightier generator box.<sup id="cite_ref-hi-tech_5-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-hi-tech-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Power_requirements">Power requirements</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Monolight&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Power requirements"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Monolights are independently powered and therefore require individual power connections.
