Kino Flo Celeb LED 201 DMX - Center Mount, Univ 120U

The Kino Flo Celeb® LED 201 DMX produces a soft, even wraparound lighting quality (CRI 95) and produces color faithfully on HD or film, in the studio or on location. The Celeb LED 201 measures 24" x 14" (61 x 35.5cm). This LED light is similar in profile and light output to the popular Diva-Lite 415.

The Celeb LED features technical innovations:

• A dial-in variable color temperature control
• Full-range dimming
• Programmable 2700K to 6500K presets
• 100 Watts of soft, lustrous white light
• Flicker-free
• No color temperature shift when dimmed

This trim, lightweight fixture operates on universal AC power (100 V AC - 240 V AC) and needs only less than one amp to produce more lumens than a 750W tungsten soft light. The Celeb LED 201 can also be powered by 24 V DC battery. The Celeb LED's cost savings from low energy and long lamp life continues Kino Flo's reputation as an environmentally friendly lighting company.

The Celeb 201 is about 2/10 of a stop brighter than the Celeb 200.

The Celeb LED 201 comes complete with 360 degree mounting, molded accessory holders, removable gel frame and focusing louver.

Features:

• Kelvin presets and custom settings between 2700-6500K
• Universal Input 100 V AC to 240 V AC or 24 V DC
• Onboard and DMX dimming
• DMX wireless link (Lumen Radio option)

• All-in-one metal alloy design with built-in electronics
• Color-correct with high color rendering index (CRI 95)
• Can use preset buttons to store custom Kelvin settings

NOTE: Kino Flo moved the color space slightly more towards the green on the Celeb 201 panels. Depending on your camera, a slight magenta shift was noticeable on the Celeb 200. Some people placed an 1/8 + green on the Celeb 200 to accommodate this. The Celeb 201 panel cleans that up so 1/8 + green is not necessary.

As with all Kino Flos, the Celeb LED’s soft, lustrous color has been specially formulated to match the spectral distribution curves of HD film and video cameras.  With a high color rendering index (CRI 95), the Celeb LED operates coolly and flicker-free, even while dimming, and maintains its True Match® color temperature without any color shift. 

The push-button Kelvin presets can be fine-tuned to custom settings from 2700K to 6500K with a turn of a dial.  Light levels do not change when selecting Kelvin settings. With the use of a Lumen Radio transmitter (sold sparately), the Celeb LED 201 can be operated DMX wirelessly. The Celeb's slim profile is lightweight and mounts onto a baby stand or can be hung from a grid with a baby pipe clamp. 

With its soft, beauty light and compact, sturdy design, the Celeb LED makes a great tool for rigorous everyday use in any studio environment or on location.

With the use of a Lumen Radio transmitter (sold separately), the Celeb LED 201 can be operated DMX wirelessly as an alternative to DMX cables.

Center Mount & Lollipop

The Center Mount features a ball and socket design and lock down handle. It allows unrestricted 360° orientation. At the other end of the Center Mount is a baby receiver curved lollipop, MTP-LBC (16mm), which can go directly onto a baby stand or hang from a pipe grid.

NOTE:  The handles on the back of the fixture provide an attachment point for a safety chain.

Other Rigging Options

Aside from using the Center Mount and Lollipop, the Celeb LED 201 DMX can be mounted using the unique accessory holder brackets, which come standard on this lighting fixture. You can rig the light overhead using two or all four of the provided accessory holder, with the appropriate rope or tie-down gear, to enable 4-point rope hangs for specialty riggin applications.

You may find this feature comes in handy for down lights or mimicking skylights overhead on an enclosed set. 

DMX Control Panel

Each Celeb LED 201 DMX includes a DMX Control Panel on the back of the fixture. This easy-to-use panel operates on on seven buttons and knobs.

Kelvin Presets Button - Kelvin buttons come preset at the Kino Flo factory. Factory defaults left to right are: 2700K, 3200K, 4500K, 5500K, 6500K. You can also store custom Kelvin settings with these preset buttons.

DMX Address - This is where you will set your DMX address. The Celeb LED 201 automatically assigns (2) channels. First Channel controls Dimming; the Second Channel controls Kelvin.

Kelvin / DIM - In KELVIN mode, an amber light appears to the left of the button and Kelvin is displayed. Press the button again to change to DIM mode. In DIM mode, a green light will appear to the left of the button and Dim level is displayed.

Display - Provides Kelvin, Dimming level, and software revision data in a red display.

Lock / Reset - In LOCK mode, an amber light is displayed to the left of the button. In RESET mode, the indicator light is green. To reset to factory presets, hold the LOCK / RESET button for 5 seconds.

On / Off - This standard power button icon is used to indicate the on/off switch. When ON, the unit displays a green light. When OFF yet plugged in to power, the panel shows an amber light.

Kelvin / Dimmer Knob - Manually adjusts Kelvin or Dim levels. Press the knob to toggle between fine and coarse adjustments.

NOTE: Each Celeb LED 201 DMX fixture includes an AUTO TERMINATE feature. The last fixture that does not have an XLR cable attached to the DMX OUT port will automatically terminate.
