The Astera AX3 Lightdrop is a battery operated, easy to use IP65 RGBW puck aimed at stage lighting and corporate events. It can be used as uplight as well as hanging or standing spotlight and inside translucent objects, truss, etc. It is extremely compact and yet offers a high brightness paired with long battery runtime and range. AX3 ships with a multi-functional bracket. A stand can be unfolded and it contains a 3/8" thread for accessories like the compatible AX5 Bolt.
One of the AX3’s most popular features is its magnetic underside which allows it to be attached to metal surfaces. Make sure to secure it with an eyebolt when hanging it overhead. Filters for different beam angles (flood, elliptic, etc) can easily be inserted. Create a wide-angle soft light or add a 120° filter to create a evenly illuminated pixel dome. Use the AX5 Domes (15cm/25cm) put the AX3 inside and create a decorative object.
To ensure that your light’s batteries last throughout your entire production, you can select how many hours they have to last. This limits the light’s output to a level where you get the maximum brightness to achieve the selected runtime.
AsteraApp offers intuitive and fast control of complex lighting setups and is also used for preparation and monitoring of our lights.
All Astera lights contain a wireless DMX module by LumenRadio, enabling them to be controlled by CRMX and W-DMX transmitters alongside other wireless fixtures. The AsteraBox has built-in CRMX and can be used to transmit DMX data to your lights.
Via the AsteraApp the PWM frequency of the LEDs can be adjusted to ensure that there is no interference with standard cameras. In addition, the light has a green/magenta balance to minimize post-production work.
