When it comes to professional-grade lighting solutions, the Joker2 1600W Kit stands out as a powerful and versatile choice. As the most potent offering in the Joker2 range, this unit boasts a robust 1600W output, equivalent to over 6000W of Quartz fixture output. This impressive power allows it to produce one full stop more light than the Joker2 800, making it an ideal choice for both indoor and outdoor photography and videography.
The Joker2 1600W Kit offers three unique configurations to cater to a variety of lighting needs. In its bare-bulb Joker2 configuration, it delivers optimal output for use in lightbanks and lanterns, ensuring perfectly even light distribution. The Joker2 Par Version features a specular reflector and a set of four PAR 64 lenses, including Medium, Wide, Super Wide, and Frosted Fresnel. These lenses, combined with the parabolic reflector design, provide various light patterns and maximum output.
The revolutionary Joker2 Zoom Version offers a lensless and focusable beamer that provides 15 to 60 degrees of even light output. Its design, reminiscent of a faceted umbrella, beautifully distributes light across your subject, enhancing the quality of your photography or videography.
The Joker2 1600W Kit also includes a dimmable ballast, capable of operating at 300 or 1000 Hz frequency for high-speed shootings. Despite its power, it draws only 7.4 Amp on 220VAC, allowing it to run on a 16A plug. The ballast also features a "Lumenradio" protocol, showcasing an antenna and DMX panel on its rear side for easy control via a tablet or smartphone.
Designed with the traveling professional in mind, the Joker2 1600W Kit comes with a rolling case for easy transportation. It can run on a domestic electrical supply, eliminating the need for a generator. Manufactured by K5600, a brand synonymous with high-quality lighting equipment, the Joker2 1600W Kit is a durable, high-quality, and professional choice for all your lighting needs.
