3-Ton G&E Production Van: FAQ, Product Details, and Production Resources

The 3-Ton G&E Production Van from Two Stories Media is our most comprehensive grip and electric package, combining the full 2-Ton gear inventory with a movement and comms package: a Dana Dolly with stands, a dedicated camera cart, and a ten-walkie kit. Designed for high-end commercials, feature film work, large-scale branded content, and demanding multi-day productions, the 3-Ton delivers everything your crew needs — grip, electric, rigging, movement, and comms — in one fully equipped vehicle.

At Two Stories Media, we offer the 3-Ton G&E Production Van as part of our gear rentals program. This page covers everything you need to know about this premium package, including the included equipment, a la carte lighting options, production applications, workflow tips, and frequently asked questions.

3-Ton G&E Production Van Product Overview

The 3-Ton is our top-tier G&E production van package, building on everything in the 2-Ton package with the addition of camera movement, comms, and oversized bounce. This package includes all frames, rags, stands, dollies, carts, nets, flags, rigging gear, grip supplies, electrical distribution, tape, utility items, lumber, and expendables from the 2-Ton tier — plus two Nanlite Forza 60C fixtures included for accents and interviews.

Included lighting is two Nanlite Forza 60C fixtures. Every other light in our inventory, from the Creamsource Vortex 8 and Astera Titan Tubes to the Aputure COB line, is available a la carte at its own day rate, so you only pay for the fixtures your shoot actually needs. See the full lighting menu with day rates on our G&E production van page.

Why Productions Choose the 3-Ton G&E Van

Production teams choose the 3-Ton because it eliminates the need to source grip and electric separately. At $550 per day, the package provides exceptional value compared to renting each component individually, and it arrives as a single, organized vehicle with everything your crew needs. This simplifies logistics, reduces rental coordination, and ensures that every piece of gear is tested, prepped, and ready to perform.

The 3-Ton is especially valued on high-end productions where camera movement and communication keep big crews fast. A Dana Dolly with stands, a dedicated camera cart, and a ten-walkie kit mean your team can build, move, and talk without waiting on extra rentals, and any lighting your gaffer specs can be added a la carte. Combined with the comprehensive grip and rigging inventory, the 3-Ton provides a fully self-contained production support vehicle for the most demanding shoots.

Production Resources and Workflow Tips

For high-end commercial and narrative work, the 3-Ton gives your team the grip, movement, and comms backbone that complex setups demand. Spec your key sources a la carte, from a Creamsource Vortex 8 or Aputure 1200D punched through a 12×12 frame with soft frost, and round out fill and accents with the included Nanlite Forza 60C pair. Wireless Astera tubes and bulbs can ride along at their day rates when the design calls for color and practicals, and the Dana Dolly and camera cart keep the camera department moving as fast as the lighting team.

For multi-day or multi-location productions, the 3-Ton reduces turnaround time between setups and locations. Because everything ships in one vehicle, your crew can transition from one setup to the next without coordinating separate lighting and grip deliveries.
