BB&S Lighting Area 48 LED Soft Fixture with Interchangeable Phosphor Technology (Black, 3200K, 5600K, and Chroma Blue)
Key Features
  • 3200K, 5600K, and Chroma Blue Panels
  • 1200W Tungsten Equivalent Output
  • High CRI, Detachable Barndoors
  • 160W, 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz Power Supply
This black Area 48 Soft 3200K, 5600K, and Chroma Blue LED Fixture with Remote Phosphor Technology from BBS is a unique LED panel that separates the phosphor, which is normally integrated into the LED, from the Area 48's array. Instead, a phosphor panel with the desired color temperature is inserted into the light's accessory channel. The benefit is a higher degree of color accuracy than that of phosphor incorporated lights as well as a very high CRI. This version of the light ships with 3200K, 5600K and chroma blue panels but there are also 2700K, 4300K, and 6500K panels as well as chroma green for chroma key work. The Area 48 also has a strobing mode for visual effects.

BB&S Lighting BBS-2044KB Overview

This black Area 48 Soft 3200K, 5600K, and Chroma Blue LED Fixture with Remote Phosphor Technology from BBS is a unique LED panel that separates the phosphor, which is normally integrated into the LED, from the Area 48's array. Instead, a phosphor panel with the desired color temperature is inserted into the light's accessory channel. The benefit is a higher degree of color accuracy than that of phosphor incorporated lights as well as a very high CRI. This version of the light ships with 3200K, 5600K and chroma blue panels but there are also 2700K, 4300K, and 6500K panels as well as chroma green for chroma key work. The Area 48 also has a strobing mode for visual effects.

Built with the professional user in mind, the Area 48 is console-controllable via DMX with 0-100% 8 or 16-bit dimming, locally or remotely. The light has a low-heat output that's equivalent to a 1200W tungsten flood light while consuming only 150W which translates to low operating costs and a fast return on investment. The included 100-240 VAC power supply allows worldwide use , but optional V-mount and Gold mount battery plates offer independence from mains power, an essential feature for the location shooter.
