FilmGear® Takes Space Lights to New Heights: The Helios 1100C!

The most powerful RGB LED space light from the NAB Product of the Year award-winning Helios series builds upon the industry-leading color mixing and adds the vibrant colors of FilmGear®’s RGBW LED chips. Now with 1080W of efficient, punchy MCOB LEDs, the Helios 1100C is fully equipped to paint even the tallest of studios with the colors of your dreams!

Back in 2019, the Helios 700B and 1000B bi-color LED space lights both won awards on the strength of their raw output and incredible color temperature accuracy, which was followed by the release of the RGB Helios 700C. This first foray into color space lighting integrated the RGB functionality to fill entire studios, bringing to life complex and dynamic scenes at the largest of scales.

Since then, studios have only continued to expand upwards, so FilmGear®’s engineers have spent much of the pandemic developing the Helios 1100C to take space lighting to new heights—literally. The 1100C features FilmGear®’s revolutionary new MCOB LEDs, giving them the same efficient output and throw as the Max series of RGB maxibrutes. In fact, the Helios 1100C is functionally equivalent to the Max 6C, which makes it useful as a powerful RGB skypan with its softbox.

Also like the Max 6C, each of the 6 banks can be individually controlled in all of the various modes. With the plus/minus green filter packaged into the 2700K-10000K CCT mode, this RGB space light has a more robust color temperature setting than typical bi-color lights. When it comes to RGB, the 1100C literally shines in every category that the 700C does already, with more than double the intensity for the HSI and GEL modes. The expanded Scene mode library now includes 18 presets, with options to import or program more of your own. 

Newly empowered by LumenRadio’s latest TimoTwo module, the Helios 1100C’s wireless controls take another monumental leap forward for filmmakers’ quality of life. With built-in wireless DMX and Bluetooth complementing the standard DMX/RDM, Ethernet, and USB, gaffers have total control over the light from the ground, eliminating the hassle of climbing up to each hanging fixture on a grid.

FilmGear®’s Helios 1100C RGB LED space light is here to lead the next generation of space lighting in brightness, efficiency, and versatility. Make sure to check it out as it touches down at booth 621 this Cine Gear LA!
