Review Summary
The Cool-Lux CL500 Bi-Color PRO Studio LED Spot Light with Gold Mount Battery Plate is a 15.75" x 10" x 3" LED panel designed for professional video, broadcast and still applications. The light features variable color balance from 3200 - 5600K to accommodate ambient light conditions or match other fixtures without fumbling with filters. The CL500BSG's high CRI of >95 ensures precise color rendering and pleasing flesh tones, while outputting 650 fc at 3' (the equivalent of a 500W hot light) with a low 30W electrical draw. Like color balance, light intensity can be adjusted without color shifting from 100-0% via a rear-panel dial. Ideal for the studio, the light's 30 degree spot beam angle ensures a high degree of control and directionality. The CL500BSG's cool running LEDs that require far less air-conditioning in the studio, virtually no maintenance and with a 50,000 hour life, no re-lamping and downtime.
The CL500BSG's sturdy aluminum body is supported by a yoke with a dual 5/8" stand mount that allows portrait or landscape orientation. The fixture's 100-240VAC power supply means you can use it anywhere in the world, while its Gold Mount plate provides pro battery options when mains power is not available.
