New Phosphor Technology Shown at BSC

LCA were delighted to show another new lighting technology to hit the industry at the BSC the other night.

The new TruColor HS delivers an unprecedented volume of soft light optimised for image capture, as well as other applications that demand accurate colour rendering. By harnessing Remote Phosphor Technology (RPT), the TruColor HS exceeds the output of a traditional 2K incandescent soft light using less than 400 watts of AC power. This means you can plug several units into a single 15 amp circuit and avoid the added cost of generators, fuel, and heavy cables. Operating temperatures are also significantly reduced, producing virtually no heat in the illuminated area. 

Putting the new light through its paces at the BSC was Robbie Bryan, Derek Suter BSC, Lou Bogue (gaffer), Alan Lowne BSC Magazine, Richard Blanchard

Rather than traditional diffusion to soften the light source, the light actually emits from the RPT panels on the front of the fixture, providing a lighting characteristic that radiates equally in a 160o radius. The ability for TruColor HS light to "wrap" your subject with soft, edgeless shadows is unlike any fixture you’ve ever used.

PRG has partnered with a leading innovator of phosphor technology to develop special high-CRI formulations that deliver 3200K with a CRI of 96. When daylight is required, the interchangeable phosphor panels allow the same fixture to output 5200K with a CRI of 90. Additional color temperatures are being developed to match other light conditions. The color temperature of the TruColor HS is extremely consistent fixture to fixture, and will not change over time like other lighting technologies.

Like all PRG products, the TruColor HS is extremely durable, built to last with anodized alloy construction, flexible polycarbonate panels, and field-serviceable components. The fixture ballast includes both local and DMX control, and connects to the lamp head with a ruggedized multi-core cable.

The TruColor HS is completely flicker-free and passively cooled, perfect for any film or television project, in the studio or on location.
