The SkyPanel X, when paired with the HyPer Optic, delivers a punchy light source, ideal through windows with diffusion. It offers an alternative to traditional point-source lights since you get the punch and rounded beam but with all the advantages of LED lights.

A power supply is not included with the ARRI SkyPanel X21 Modular LED Panel (BH #ARSPX21) as this is the base configuration, meaning it only includes the light and the SkyPanel X21 Dome. We do have other configurations that we carry which do included the power cable, such as the ARRI SkyPanel X21 Modular LED Panel (All-Weather Control Panel Kit), BH #ARSPX21K (B&H Kit).
