Arri X12 1.2k HMI Kit

 remains the ultimate choice for productions requiring maximum light output. The 580 mm (22.83”) diameter parabolic facetted reflector provides continuous focus adjustment from 15° to 50° beam angle and, since the ARRIMAX does not require a set of spread lenses, shadows are sharp and easily cut.
18,000W Single Ended lamps use a sturdier GX51 lamp base for which ARRI engineers have designed a special lamp holder. This new lamp holder alleviates mechanical stress from the lamp pins, which now serve only as an electrical connection. The lamp clamping mechanism is self-aligning and uses a rugged, recessed lamp lock handle. To ensure that crews can easily use 12,000 W lamps or versions of 18 K Single Ended lamps with G38 bases, the new lamp holder accepts either lamp type with no modification or adjustment required.

 combines MAX Technology, True Blue features, and a new 1800 W lamp. The result is an exciting new class of HMI that can be powered by most domestic sockets. It is as small as a 1200 W PAR lamp head but with 70% higher light output. Adjustable from 20° to 60° beam angle, the M18 can also be used with 1200 W lamps.

ArriMax M18 HMI Par Kit

 unifies the advantages of a PAR light and a Fresnel fixture. Due to the unique lens-less MAX Technology, the unit is open-face and thus very bright but also focussable over a range of 18 to 52° HPA (Half Peak Angle), casting a crisp shadow. The reflector characteristics are optimized for 4000 W lamps but can also be used with 2500 W lamps.

The lamp head is equipped with a CCL module (compensation for cable loss). When operated with the ARRI EB 2.5/4 with CCL, full power is maintained all the way to the lamp, even when very long cables are used. This means uniformly high light output independent from cable length.

Cross Cooling allows safe operation at extreme tilt angles

 is the latest and smallest lighting fixture in 

ARRI’s highly successful M-Series of HMI lamp heads

. Like the rest of the M-Series, the M8 is equipped with MAX Technology, a unique, patented reflector design that unifies the advantages of a Fresnel and a PAR fixture.

The combination of an open-face design and the unrivaled efficiency of the MAX reflector makes the M8 exceptionally bright; in fact, the light output produced by its 800 W lamp comes close to the output from a 1,200 W Fresnel or PAR (with lens). The unit can be focused between 15° and 62° just by turning the focus knob, producing a remarkably even light field and a crisp, clear shadow. By eliminating the need for bulky, easily breakable spread lenses, the M8 will speed up workflows on set.

To close the gap between the M40/25 and the ARRIMAX 18/12, the 

 introduces a new power class of 9000 W. The unit is open-faced and very bright; it is also focusable from 16° up to 49°, producing a remarkably even light field and a crisp, clear shadow. ARRI technology partner Osram developed a new 9,000 W lamp for the M90, which is stable at 1,000 Hz (High-Speed Ballast required) and almost as small as the 6,000 W lamp that can alternatively be used. This allowed ARRI to design the M90 in very compact housing, barely larger than the ARRISUN 60.

Accompanying the M90 is a new ballast, the EB 6/9 kW, available in standard and high-speed versions. Like other recent ballasts from ARRI, it features CCL (Compensation for Cable Loss) technology and the power-saving ALF (Active Line Filter). The EB 6/9 kW is DMX compatible and no bigger than ARRI’s existing EB 6000 Baby ballast.

Cinemills Silver Bullet 12k HMI Kit

 can be compared to a 750/1000 Watt quartz fixture, but with a power draw of only 3 Amps. It has become a standard for small interiors, interviews, documentaries, and car shots. The system will travel and operate in 110 and 240 Volt environments as well as 28.8 (2 x 14.4 camera batteries) and 30 Volt. The Par type design was preferred for its spot-to-flood ration (80 to 1), compactness (no focusing), ease of use, and efficiency through diffusing material. The popular set of four lenses (3 x Par 36 and a Frosted Fresnel) and barn doors will help to control the beam patterns from 5 degrees to 65 degrees. The “Bug-Lite” configuration is designed to fill a Lantern or any size Chimera Lightbank evenly, making it the perfect light for interviews. Its lightweight allows it to hang safely at the end of a boom arm.

Joker Bug 200 Drop-In Lens Kit: Frosted Fresnel, Medium, Wide & Super Wide

Joker Bug 200 Scrim Set: 1 x Single, 2 x Double

K5600 Joker 200W HMI Par Kit

 combines the characteristics of the BUG-LITE 400, a 400 Watt daylight HMI system without optics, with those of the JOKER 400, a PAR 46 fixture using a specular parabolic reflector and a set of 4 lenses. The JOKER-BUG 400 is comparable to a 1500/2000W quartz fixture but with a power draw of only 5.5 Amps.

In the Bug-Lite mode (no optics), the main application is in traditional Lightbanks as well as Lanterns, where it uses the sides as a large reflector, collecting the maximum output of the lamp and filling the front screen very evenly. It is very powerful in daylight interiors and can operate in any position, including pointing straight down.

The BEAMER optical accessory turns the BUG-LITE into a JOKER-BUG, a directional PAR unit offering various beam patterns through quick lens changes. The JOKER-BUG 400 offers the most flexible optical configuration for location lighting by achieving Spot to Flood ratios of 80 to 1 with beam angles from as narrow as 5 degrees to as wide as 55 degrees.

The JOKER-BUG 400 is delivered with a Clear Glass Beaker when reaching full intensity is important, and a Frosted Glass Beaker when light quality is the prime concern. The 400W MSR lamp was selected for its size/weight and the sizes/weights of the components needed to operate it. The MSR lamp with its GZZ 9.5 base is considerably smaller than the next traditional Wattage, the 575 (G22 base); this, in turn, allows for a more compact and shorter fixture design. The shorter arc gap of the 400 makes up for the difference in output between 400 and 575, and the lower Wattage does not require forced air cooling of the power supply.

The small, quiet ballast can be hidden anywhere and plugs in any circuit without the risk of overloading. With the Slimverter 400 and two 30-volt batteries, the JOKER-BUG 400 is the largest 30-volt battery-powered HMI. Motion Picture Gaffers and Freelance Cameramen have adopted the JOKER-BUG 400 for fine daylight interiors, car shots, two-camera interviews, TV magazines, documentaries, and industries.

K5600 Joker2 1600W HMI Par Kit

The traditional Joker by K5600 has been the industry standard for powerful and controllable light sources for 25 years. In 2017, at IBC, K5600 presented the successor to their flagship design with the Joker². The knowledge they’ve gained with their two-and-a-half-decade tenure has allowed them to make upgrades to an already stellar design.

A new modern design sees a more simplified parts list and rounded edges while still emitting more lumens than any competing light source of the same wattage. The newly designed head makes use of a threaded ring to mount a clear or frosted borosilicate lamp (Beaker), allowing for a quick and toolless relamping. With its easy-to-use plug-in igniter, it converts from HMI to 2K tungsten in less than a minute. A new three-way axis stand mount and yoke design features a strengthened braking system that allows the light to remain in position even with larger light-shaping tools like light banks, soft tubes, etc. Additionally, a hook has been added to help keep lenses close to the source!

The 800W Joker² comes with a dimmable ballast, which can work at 300 or 1000Hz frequencies for High-Speed shoots. It draws only 15 amps on a 120VAC line, meaning it can be used on any available house power. The ballast also has LumenRadio wireless DMX capabilities through its use of the built-in antenna port to be controlled by your tablet or smartphone!

The Joker² 800W is the workhorse of the Joker lineup. With numerous configurations, light banks, and accessories, this light will prove to be a useful addition to your equipment regardless of setup or application!
