  • The Practilite 602 is the world's first and smallest bi-color, variable beam smart LED light which can also perfectly compliment any existing light conditions. The Practilite 602 comes with an app for smartphones and is Bluetooth capable. This remote function is cost-effective and especially useful for single-person shooters or small crews when a gaffer is not available. The Practilite 602 makes event lightning, documentary shooting and field interviews more efficient as managing the lighting setup and adjustments can now be done with greater ease.

    Our unique fresnel lens design provides greater light range than conventional LED fixtures and enables superior color mixing. This enables wider shot angles and precise light-shaping without losing the LED output power/throw which is typically the case with barndoor controlled fixtures. This compact and powerful fresnel light is designed to gather and throw as much light as possible through its 3.2" 80mm fresnel lens, providing you with unprecedented size to light output ratio.

    In today's real life production environments so many different types of bulbs are being used that one cannot simply rely on "tungsten" anymore. Be it CFL, LED, halogen and other types of lighting, our Practilite 602 is just the right tool to adapt to these various lighting conditions. The variable color temperature allows operators to adjust to a variety of color temperatures that each shooting location requires.

    From tungsten to daylight and any lighting situation in between, you just dial in the matching color balance, tune and the brightness from your smartphone. It's just that easy with everything at your fingertips. No more lowering the light stands or searching for a ladder, just to tune the brightness or color temperature as you adjust it remotely from your smartphone.
