1. A tripod light comprising:
a frame supporting a light assembly; and
a support assembly coupled to the frame and configured to support the frame on a surface, the support assembly including a first leg, a second leg, and a third leg, the support assembly pivotable relative to the frame about a first axis between a stowed position in which the support assembly including the first leg, the second leg and the third leg is adjacent the frame, and a deployed position in which the support assembly including the first leg, the second leg, and the third leg extends away from the frame;
wherein each of the second leg and the third leg is configured to rotate relative to the first leg about a second axis between a collapsed position in which each of the second leg and the third leg is aligned with the first leg about the second axis, and a respective extended position of the second leg and the third leg,
wherein the second leg is spaced apart from the first leg by a first angle about the second axis in the extended position of the second leg,
wherein the third leg is spaced apart from the first leg by a second angle about the second axis in the extended position of the third leg, the second angle greater than the first angle, and
wherein the first axis and the second axis are non-parallel and non-colinear.
