2 Powerhouse 330-Watt Daylight LED Monolight - USER MANUAL

Thank you for choosing Genaray

The Genaray 330-watt Powerhouse Monolight features an advanced Chip-On-Board (COB) array that outputs a brilliant 63,000 lux for a powerful constant light source that will deliver plenty of power, even when used with a softbox. This compact LED array eliminates multiple shadows that are common in LED lighting. Flicker-free light and quiet cooling fans that are almost inaudible make the Powerhouse as great a choice for film and video as it is for photo shoots. The fixture’s natural-looking 5600 K daylight-balance light is dimmable from 100% to 0% to deliver the exact brightness your subject needs.

The Powerhouse boasts a CRI and TLCI of over 95 for extremely accurate color rendering. The integrated Bowens mount enhances the performance of the Powerhouse by offering compatibility with many light-shaping accessories. A 2.4 GHz receiver is integrated into the unit for wireless operation of one or more Powerhouse fixtures with a dedicated remote control.

Important! The Powerhouse is a multivoltage fixture capable of running on 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz. The included cable has a 120 V, 50 Hz plug. To use this fixture with other voltages, you must use a plug adapter (sold separately).

Connect the AC power adapter to the Powerhouse with the 5-pin XLR cable, and use the power cable to connect the adapter to an outlet.

Warning The Powerhouse is a very powerful light. Do not look directly into the light while it’s being switched on.
