Prolycht Orion 300 FS Overview

Employing an intuitive and familiar monolight form factor, this Orion 300 FS Kit from Prolycht is designed for the sophisticated user who seeks the ultimate in color control with built-in filters, exchangeable lenses, wireless and wired control, plus both universal AC and optional battery use.

First, the comprehensive color features. The Orion 300 has a wide CCT color control from 2000 to 20,000K with a high CRI/TLCI accuracy of 96/98 rating. There's also an RGB mode with 6D color mixing of Red, Green, Blue, Amber, Cyan, and Lime LEDs. Hue, saturation, and intensity control of the 360° color wheel offer access to a myriad of custom colors. The Orion 300 is dimmable from 0-100% in 1000 steps, has 46 natural and artificial light source matching, and a filter library of 316 Rosco and Lee Filters. It also has 19 special FX including TV, Fire, Lightning, Police Car, and Explosion. All of these functions can be controlled via a DMX console, an LAN port with built-in ARTNet, or a ChromaLink app that supports Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and 3rd party apps.

The Orion 300 is ready for worldwide use via its 100-240V power control box but it will also run on two V-mount or Gold mount batteries (depending on what optional battery plate you choose) when AC power is unavailable.

Prolycht Orion 300 FS Reviews

Great in many respects

By Ian
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-03-25

Functionality as a light is excellent, color is great. App functionality is amazing, but bluetooth connection compared to the 675 is weaker and can get unreliable. Wish it was waterproof and had CRMX, not sure how much more it would cost then, but those are the main things that keep me from buying a second one.

Great light, great customer service, but ran into an issue

By Wes

Overall I love this light and the company has stood behind it after I had an issue with it. The brightness is great and I love the RGB controls. I ordered it with the softbox as well which has been great. However, on a shoot the light stopped working. I couldn't get the light to power on at all (ballast still powered on). I contacted the company and they offered to fix it. They sent me a prepaid shipping label. Within two weeks I had the light back. Now of course it was a problem to be down a light, but this company is based in LA and I live in USA so they were able to fix it quickly. I know of people who own other lights and have 3 month turnaround times when they've had similar problems due to companies being based in China.

Has the fan issue been resolved? A previous review mentioned that the quiet fan mode capped the power at 25%. Noise or low-power would be a dealbreaker for interviews.
Asked by: Steve
Yes. Fan noise was reduced with the introduction of this Transvideo Starlite HD-m 5" OLED SDI Monitor-Recorder with Metadata Agregator BH #TR917TS0142 • MFR #917TS0142, one of many improvements. Numerous reviews of the Orion 300 FS have stated that fan noise is not an issue. There is still a menu option to shut off the fan entirely, but this does reduce the light’s output to prevent heat issues.

The Orion 300 FS is in fact the latest generation of the product. Another vendor mislabelled the product with a "Mk-II" in the name but there is no such product and this mislabelling is being addressed. Mitch Gross, Prolycht Lighting

How does the brightness compare to an Aputure 300DII?
Asked by: Steve
The Prolycht Orion 300 FS at 5600K with a standard reflector is 3,2756 lux at 3 meters and the Aputure Light Storm C300d Mark II LED is 3500 lux at also 3 metes. but using Hyper Reflector. So they are close in brightness.

What is approximate time this light will run at full power when running on two v-mount 98 (e.g., IDX L-micro) batteries? Is this light powerful enough to light an interview subject with included soft box outdoors in direct sun? Thank you.
Asked by: Thomas
A end-user can get anywhere from 3-5 hrs run time depending on output. We highly suggest units with a minimum of 700 watt power consumption in order to over power the sun.
