The K 5600 Joker Bug delivers 200 watts of high‑intensity HMI output, providing consistent color temperature of 5600 K for professional studio lighting. Its versatile AC/DC power capability allows operation from standard 120 V or 240 V sources, ensuring flexibility on set and on location. The durable aluminum housing and precision PAR optics produce a focused beam with minimal spill, ideal for key and fill lighting. This used kit includes the lamp, reflector, and power cable, fully functional and ready for immediate deployment.
Key Features
- High Output and Efficiency: The 200W HMI light produces an output comparable to a 750-1000 Watt quartz fixture while drawing only about 3 amps of power.
- Flicker-Free Operation: The electronic square-wave ballast provides flicker-free lighting, making it suitable for high-speed photography and all video projects.
- Versatile AC/DC Power: The kit includes a multi-voltage power supply that operates on a wide range of AC inputs (90-265V) or DC inputs (14.4V or 30V battery sources), offering great flexibility for on-location shoots.
- Daylight Balanced Color: It uses an MSR 200 HR lamp with a consistent 5600 Kelvin color temperature, ensuring accurate and natural-looking color reproduction.
- Beam Control and Accessories:
- PAR Design: The parabolic reflector design provides an 80:1 spot-to-flood ratio without complex focusing mechanisms.
- Lenses and Beamer: The kit typically includes a set of four lenses (Frosted Fresnel, Medium, Wide, and Super Wide) and a detachable Beamer reflector to adjust the beam pattern from a narrow 5° spot to a wide 65° flood.
- Barndoors and Scrims: Accessories like barndoors and scrims (full single and full double) are included for further light shaping and intensity control.
- Durable and Portable: The light features a high-temperature black epoxy aluminum casting and a robust yoke. The entire system is compact, lightweight, and often comes with a hard carrying case for easy transport.
- Silent Operation: The power supply is convection-cooled, allowing for completely silent operation, which is ideal for sound-sensitive environments.
- Dual Functionality: The light can be used as a directional PAR unit with the beamer or in a "Bug-Lite" configuration (bare bulb with a frosted beaker) to evenly fill a softbox or lantern.
