The LoCaster 2 Plus AC/DC LED Double Kit from ARRI is a lightweight location lighting solution that offers multiple control options for precise color rendering with increased output. The kit includes 2 LoCaster 2 Plus LED Lights with stirrup, barndoors, AC adapters, batteries, chargers, and mounting pins. A kit case is included for storage and transport.
Building on the foundation of the original LoCaster, the LoCaster 2 Plus features 35% greater brightness, adjustable color temperature, light weight, full dimming and the AC and battery options sought after by location shooters. ARRI uses a 8.58 x 3.77 x 2.75", 35W LED array with a prismatic homogenizing lens to produce a 63-degree beam angle that performs like a single source luminaire without the multiple shadows that plague some other fixtures.
The LoCaster 2 Plus offers a substantial amount of control as compared to other lights; adjustments are executed with simple knobs on its back panel. Color temperature is variable from 2800 to 6500K, and you can tweak the full minus and full plus green as well, taking care of most of your filtration preferences without taping a single gel to the unit. Dimming from 0-100% is just as easy using another knob. The LEDs are virtually heat-free, eliminating worries about the comfort of the talent, while the panel's rated 50,000 hour lamp life makes the LoCaster practically maintenance-free.
The LoCaster runs on a 100-250 VAC power supply for worldwide use or on a Caster battery pack when mains power is unavailable. The LoCaster 2 Plus comes with a stirrup that acts as a yoke which allows tilting adjustment and has a built-in holder for the battery pack.
This is the ARRI 2-Leaf Barndoor Set for LoCaster/BroadCaster lights.
These lights are part of the LED Caster Series and offer continuous dimming, choice of color temperature, and superior digital rendition. LoCaster is the on-location model while the BroadCaster, designed for more control, is the in-studio model.
The Arri LoCaster Power Supply accepts input voltages from 100-240VAC, 50/60Hz and outputs 24VDC, with a maximum of 2.5A. Extremely small and lightweight, it powers a single LoCaster panel via a 4-pin connection.
The ARRI LoCaster Battery w/Charger (30 VDC) is a dedicated battery that can power a Locaster single LED panel for approximately 1.6 hours. The battery has a built-in capacity status check button to monitor the remaining running time available.
