ikan RW5 Overview

The Rayden RW5 Daylight Half x 1 Studio & Field LED Light from ikan is built into a heavy-duty molded plastic chassis providing a lightweight yet strong fixture with enhanced features such as 100-10% flicker-free dimming, LCD display, and an included wireless remote. It produces a 50° beam spread and the barndoors feature integrated gel clips.

The fixture is DC powered, incorporating a 4-pin XLR connector and including an AC/DC power supply for mains power. Interchangeable Gold and V-Mount plates are included so no worrying about getting the fixture that matches your battery system. The four-leaf barndoors provide control over light spill, and feature removable light intensifiers to suit your taste. The yoke is angled forward 30°, which allows you to open the barndoors all the way without hitting the yoke when the light is pointed straight forward. The yoke has a combo Baby pin/Junior stud so you can mount it on a stand or hang it from a grid with optional clamps.

Dimming
The big yellow knob on the back of the unit controls the dimming of the unit. It features an indent for fingertip control and is positioned at the edge of the fixture, which is cut away allowing you to adjust the knob from the side of the unit when the back is difficult to access. You can also use the included wireless remote to control the dimming.
Removable Intensifiers
While some users may enjoy the small increase in light output that intensifiers bring, other users prefer to use barndoors without intensifiers. The removable intensifiers that come with this light attach securely to the barndoors. You do not have to attach all four intensifiers, which allows you choose how many barndoors to use for intensifying your output and how many barndoors to use to cut spill.
The top and bottom barndoors integrate gel clips for attaching diffusion or gels.
Battery Power
The fixture features an interchangeable Gold Mount battery plate. Removing four screws and disconnecting the snap connector allows you to swap out the Gold Mount battery plate for the included V-Mount plate.
LCD Info Screen
On the back of the fixture is an LCD info screen that displays the battery power remaining and brightness percentage.

ikan RW5 Reviews

Solid light at a good price

By Jeff the TV guy.
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2018-05-04

We now have six Ikan flat panel LED light fixtures, and will probably buy more. They are simple and easy to use, and provide plenty of light for the price. This unit is no exception. The large brightness adjusting dial is easy to use and smooth. And at 100%, the thing is plenty bright. My only beef with Ikan, and the reason for not giving five stars is this: they change models so frequently that it's hard to get a full set of the same fixtures when purchased over time. Their models are regularly going out of production, to be replaced by some other model that is pretty close... but not exactly the same. (Check the B&H site... note how many Ikan light products are "No Longer Available". So why does this matter? Well, although they are all rated at one color temp (in our case, all 5600K), the change in models - and presumably the change in exact LED specs, leaves them not all at exactly the same color. This 56OOK light is warmer than the other five 5600K lights we have from Ikan (All Ikan IFD models). Enough grousing. All that said, these lights are an excellent value and are good units overall. We will buy more. Soon.
