The K5600 Joker-Bug 1600 delivers high output from a compact, 1600W daylight source while operating on a standard 15 Amp, 120V circuit. Designed for rental use, the unit provides smooth, even light distribution when used with lightbanks and lanterns, reducing hot spots and maximizing usable output for location and studio environments.

Key Features

• High-efficiency lamp: 1600 Watt CSR/SE single-ended discharge, 5600K color temperature, up to 700 hours life for reliable daylight-balanced output.
• Low power draw: Comparable output to much larger quartz fixtures while running from a standard 15 Amp breaker, minimizing power logistics on location.
• Even distribution: Built-in bug-lite characteristic is ideal for use inside lightbanks and lanterns, producing uniform coverage and fewer hot spots.
• Rugged construction: Aluminum housing with high-temperature black finish for durability in production environments.
• Safe handling: G22 socket with high insulation for hot restrike, plus a borosilicate tempered safety glass beaker with UV filtering.

Use Cases

• Location shoots where mains capacity is limited but high output is required.
• Soft-light applications using lightbanks, lanterns, and large modifiers that benefit from even distribution.
• Studio or rehearsal setups needing a daylight-balanced source that can be hot-restruck safely.
