About Bron Kobold Sub 50-2 AC/DC All Weather Kit with Lamp

Where professional quality and durability meet, the Kobold SUB 50-2 Open Face AC / DC All Weather Kit stands as a testament to high-performance lighting for photography and film production. Engineered to thrive in diverse environments, this kit features IP54-rated, weather-proof DW 200 and DW 400 lamp bases, ensuring resilience against water splashes from any direction, safeguarding your shoot against the elements.

The meticulously optimized design of the open face reflectors in this kit guarantees a high light output and uniform illumination, essential for capturing crisp, clear images. With the ability to focus the light beam from a narrow 14 degrees to a broad 51 degrees on the 200W head, and 15 to 45 degrees on the 400W head, the Kobold SUB 50-2 offers unparalleled versatility in directing light precisely where it's needed.

The ergonomic positioning of the focusing knob enhances user experience, allowing for smooth and precise adjustments. The robust construction of this daylight fixture combines compact dimensions with maximum reliability, making it an ideal choice for both studio setups and on-location shoots.

This comprehensive kit includes the Kobold EWB-200 or EWB 400/575 AC Ballasts, compatible with a wide voltage range of 85-265VAC, providing dimmable power and consistent performance to your 200W or 400W fixtures. For remote locations without AC power, the BB200/C DC Ballast connects to a 26-34 Volt battery source, offering the same dimmable capabilities, ensuring your lighting needs are met wherever your shoot may take you.

Completing the ensemble, each head comes with its own open face reflector and a 4-leaf barndoor, allowing for precise control over the shape and direction of the light. The kit also includes a 200 Watt HMI lamp and a 400 Watt HMI lamp, catering to a range of lighting requirements. All of these high-quality components are neatly housed in a rugged, airline-approved case, providing secure transport and storage.

With its comprehensive array of features, the Kobold SUB 50-2 Open Face AC / DC All Weather Kit is the professional's choice for achieving exceptional lighting in any condition.
