  • Hilio 1k LED Light from Litepanels

    Litepanels Hilio High Output LED Fixture

    To answer the need for an LED fixture capable of throwing illumination over a 20 to 25 foot (6.1 - 7.6 M) distance, Litepanels has developed the new Hilio™ 5600°K. Utilizing an array of 72 one-Watt daylight LEDs that are focused to a 10ø angle, the H2 Hi-Output washes the set in Litepanels legendary HD-friendly LED soft light.

    The new 72W fixture has a 10" x 14" footprint, providing the equivalent light of a 1000W legacy lighting fixture.

    Optimum Control


    Like all Litepanels LED lighting fixtures, the new Hi-Output is dimmable from 100% to 0 with no noticeable change in color temperature. Control is intuitive via a fixture-mounted knob or from a DMX dimmer board.

    Litepanels Benefits


    Even though they pack a punch, Litepanels Hilio™ fixtures generate no noticeable heat. So that means they are safer to handle and there's no extra expense for cooling with power-hungry air conditioning. What's more, the proprietary LEDs offer 50,000 hour lamp life.

    Ready to Go


    Litepanels Hilio™ come with an integrated yoke that incorporates a gimbal mount, and a filter slot that can accept a pair of gel filters.
