At Cine Gear 2022, Eric Nasso talks with Mitch Gross about the new NEO Color LED Spotlight. This new light is the result of collaboration between Dedolight and Prolycht.
NEO Color is the first product of the technical collaboration between Dedolight and Prolycht, formed in late 2021. The NEO color LED spotlight integrates the optics of a daylight with the RGBACL hyperlight color engine from ProLichot.
The NEO Color is an RGBACL 80w adjustable color focusing spotlight that comes in the familiar deadlight form factor. The NEO Color uses the RGBACL Hyperlight Color Engine, developed by Prolycht and Dedolight’s famous integrated optics to give a 6: 1 variable beam angle.
The NEO Color joins Prolitch’s Orion 300 FS and Orion 675 FS color spotlights to create a family of lights using the same color engine. Theoretically, this would allow you to use them together because they should be almost identical.
The RGBACL Hyperlight Color Engine was engineered by Dr. Anking Liu to use red, green, blue, amber, cyan and lime emitters. It claims to reproduce accurate skin tones across an extended 2,000K – 20,000K CCT range, as well as creating richly saturated colors across a larger range than competing RGBW and RGBWW LED lights.
The Deadlight NEO color shares a similar feature with the Prolite Orion 675 FS and Orion 300 FS. Controls include x, y, hundreds of built-in Li and Rosco gel equivalents, dozens of built-in light source equivalents, and an array of customizable effects.
Each ballast’s OLED display is controlled via a menu or via the same ChromaLink app that uses Bluetooth or WiFi as the Prolite Orion series. Includes controls for integration with various wired and wireless light controllers and consoles via DMX and Lumenradio CRMX.
The NEO color has full metallic construction properties and consists of NEO color lamphead (DLED7C) and DTneoC ballast.
The fixture can be powered by a V-mounted battery or AC power supply. A 3-meter cable connects the lamphead to the NEO color control unit, and an optional 10-meter cable is also available. The Deadlight NEO color is compatible with many current Daedalite optical accessories.
