ELVARNIXO Continuous — what you see is what you shoot
The Achernar makes weather on demand: lightning that reads as lightning, firelight with physics in it, TV flicker, chases — tap-tempo on set, DMX from the board, and colour discipline even mid-storm.
An LED fixture is a colour instrument wearing a lamp costume. Ours start with binned emitters mixed by spectrometer, not by eye — CRI, TLCI and SSI printed per serial — and hold their point through hours of tungsten-to-daylight travel. Drivers are flicker-free past 25,000 fps shutter equivalents, dimming curves are broadcast-smooth to a tenth of a percent, and thermals are engineered so output at minute ninety equals output at minute one.
Design & Craft
- Flicker-free past 25,000 fps shutter equivalents at every dimming level
- DMX/RDM, wireless and app control with clear priority rules
- Safe defaults: effects land on set, not in the breaker panel
- Dimming curves smooth to 0.1% with four selectable laws
- CRI, TLCI and SSI measured per serial in Prague — report in the box

Care
Wipe housings dry after location work, cap connectors on the truck, and store below 40 °C. Run the built-in calibration check quarterly — two minutes — and book the annual photometric re-certification so your fleet keeps matching itself.
Questions, Answered
Is it really flicker-free for high-speed work?
Drivers are tested past 25,000 fps shutter equivalents at all dimming levels; the certificate ships with the fixture.
How loud is the fan?
Noise figures at each fan mode are in the specification — measured at one metre. Hush modes hold output within the stated derating.
