About Film Gear Electronic Ballast

Be at the forefront of professional lighting technology with Film Gear's robust 4kW/2.5kW Electronic Ballast V3, a versatile and reliable solution for your high-powered lighting needs. This durable ballast is engineered to seamlessly integrate with industry-standard lighting equipment, including the F4k faceted PAR lamphead, the 4/2.5kW Daylight Power Beams, and the 4/2.5kW Daylight Fresnel, ensuring compatibility and ease of use for professionals in the field.

Crafted with high-quality materials, this powerful ballast is designed to deliver stable and efficient power, making it an ideal choice for electronic ballasting in demanding welding applications. With its advanced Power Factor Correction (PFC) technology, the ballast minimizes power loss and enhances energy efficiency, while the integrated DMX control allows for precise manipulation of lighting effects, making it a must-have for any serious lighting professional.

The ballast's three distinct operational modes cater to a variety of shooting conditions. The flicker-free mode ensures consistent lighting for standard operations, the silent mode operates with reduced noise for sound-sensitive environments, and the high-frequency mode, tunable up to 1000Hz, is perfect for capturing high-speed shots without compromising on light quality. Each mode maintains the capability to dim the intensity down to 55%, providing further control over the lighting output.

With the added convenience of DMX control, users can remotely adjust settings, making it easier to adapt to changing conditions on set. The ballast's compatibility with multiple voltage levels, including 120V and 240V, further enhances its versatility, allowing it to be used in various locations and with different power supplies.

Choose Film Gear's 4kW/2.5kW Electronic Ballast V3 for a powerful, high-quality, and reliable lighting solution that stands up to the rigors of professional use, ensuring that your projects are lit to perfection.
