About Astera Helios FP2

Let the FP-2 Helios Film Lighting Tube elevate your professional film and broadcasting productions with its compact and versatile design. This 8-pack lighting solution, complete with a robust charging case, is engineered for durability and reliability, ensuring your lighting equipment remains protected during transit and on set.

Each Helios Tube in this kit boasts 8 individually controllable pixels, offering precision and creativity in your lighting design. The tunable white range extends from a warm 1,750K to a crisp 20,000K, allowing for seamless adaptation to various shooting environments and moods. With ultra-high color rendering indices-TLCI >=96, CRI >=96, and CRI Re>=90 between 3200K to 6500K-you can trust in the fidelity and consistency of the colors in your footage.

Despite its smaller stature compared to the popular Titan Tube, the Helios Tube matches the colors and brightness of its larger counterpart, ensuring a cohesive look across your lighting setup. The Boost Mode feature provides an ultra-bright output of white light for two hours or continuously when connected to AC power, perfect for those moments when extra illumination is paramount.

The backside display offers quick access to DMX setup, color adjustments, and control over hue, saturation, and intensity, streamlining the user experience. Connectivity is a breeze with both wired and wireless data connection options, including DMX, Art-Net, sACN, and power distribution via the PowerBox.

Mounting the Helios Tubes is effortless, thanks to custom holders and stands that accommodate any production requirement. Unique features such as Talkback+, Seamless Runtime, and TruColor Calibration ensure that your lights perform consistently and accurately throughout the duration of your production.

Create dynamic visual effects with ease, trigger them to match a beat, or build programs out of colors and effects. The flicker-free Scrambled PWM technology guarantees your footage will be free of flicker, while the green/magenta correction reduces post-production work.

The FP-2 Helios Film Lighting Tube kit is designed with the professional in mind, featuring scheduled standby to conserve energy, Dynamic PowerBoost for maximum brightness, and emergency lighting functionality for added safety. Anti-theft alarms and the DJ Feature enhance the versatility and security of your lighting equipment.

Control and update your lighting setup with the comprehensive AsteraApp, which is packed with additional features and regularly updated to keep your production ahead of the curve. With the FP-2 Helios Film Lighting Tube 8-Pack, you're not just investing in lighting; you're investing in a seamless, professional-grade lighting experience that stands up to the demands of TV and broadcasting environments.
