Kelvin Epos 300 – The best 300 watt light on the market

by 1 Comment

When Kelvin brought the Kelvin Epos 300 ($2,499) to the market, they reignited a (not so old) debate: are RGBACL lights better than RBGWW lights? I mean, there is definitely a price difference between the two technologies, so it’s interesting to see if the extra juice is worth the squeeze.

We took the Epos 300 for a spin and put it against the Prolycht Orion 300 ($2,150) – the closest light in the market right now, as well as some RGBWW comparisons. You can probably guess from the title we were impressed. Hit the jump for the rest of our findings.

Hands on with the Kelvin Epos 600 RGBLAC light

Recently, at IBC 2023, we had the chance to stop by the Kelvin booth to see what new toys they had. What they had with them was the powerful Kelvin Epos 600 (buy here), 600W RGBLAC Bowens mount COB LED light.

Packed full of the company’s latest tech, this light offers full-spectrum lighting through its red, green, blue, lime, amber, and cyan LED beads. It offers a CRI of 98 and a TLCI of 99 with a 2000-20,000K temperature range. We tested the similar Kelvin Epos 300, and were incredibly impressed.

Kelvin Play is the first ever RBGACL LED panel light

I want to warmly welcome the new Kelvin Play (link) – an RGBACL panel light. Of all the many LED panels I have seen in the market, I don’t recall a single panel using the RGBACL technology.

The Kelvin Play was announced at NAB 2023 last week and received quite a bit of excitement. While we are not new to colored RGB panels, seeing an RGBLAC in the wild was an exciting discovery. If you are new to RGBLAC technology or want to learn why this is a big thing, hit the jump.
