LOS ANGELES – Elation Professional’s TVL1000 is a white LED panel with variable color temperature and a battery-power option for any TV or broadcast application. This compact, lightweight panel features 200 warm white and 200 cool white LEDs, which can be blended to create any shade of white on demand, from cool natural daylight to soft warm tungsten – or anything in between.
Using either onboard controls or a standard DMX-512 controller, broadcast lighting professionals can quickly and easily adjust color temperature from 3200°K to 6500°K. The TVL1000’s variable color temperature capability makes it possible to instantly customize studio lighting to complement any skin tone or scenic/production environment with a soft, even white output.
The TVL1000 can also operate as a cordless battery-powered unit with the addition of an optional accessory, the TVL-1000BAT (sold separately). Easy to install, the battery-power option allows the fixture to be used anywhere, even where there are no power outlets. The battery is rechargeable and the unit includes a Low-Battery indicator light.
Designed to give broadcast lighting engineers the ultimate versatility, the TVL1000 is armed with several other key features. It features full 0-100 percent dimming capabilities, allowing users to fade in an out and control the intensity of the light. Additionally, it comes equipped with a 4-way barn door system around the LED source, so that illumination can be directed precisely to the desired area. The panel also includes a built-in magnetic gel/filter holder for the easy addition of frost or diffusion.
The TVL1000 is also silent operating and flicker-free for studios, theaters, churches, trade shows or any event that is being video-taped or broadcast.
“The TVL1000 is the perfect white LED panel for a wide range of video applications,” said Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional. “Its variable color temperature lets you quickly and easily adjust the shade of white to accommodate the many subtleties and nuances that inevitably come up in the studio, such as having to deal with different skin tones and scenic elements. Plus its 0-100 percent dimming ability and barn door system give broadcast lighting pros even more tools to work with to create the perfect environment.
“On top of all these features, the TVL1000 also offers a battery-power option,” added Loader. “This makes it the perfect camera-ready light to take anywhere, even where there are no electrical power sources. This portability is an important feature to have today, and one that our customers have been asking for.”
Adding to the TVL1000’s portability are its compact size – 15.9 in x 13.7 in x 4.4 in/ 406 x 350 x 113 mm – and light weight – 13.6 lbs. / 6.2 kg. To illuminate larger areas, multiple panels can be linked together (up to 12) via the unit’s IEC AC in/outs for daisy-chaining power.
The TVL1000 also includes 3 and 5-pin in/out DMX connectors. It can be run in 3 different DMX channel modes, and includes an easy-to-use display menu for DMX addressing. Additionally, the unit’s color temperature can be controlled manually via knobs on the rear of the unit.
Featuring a 30-degree standard beam angle, the TVL1000 is energy efficient, with each panel drawing just 66 watts of electricity.
