Castor Hard 1200
Tax included where applicable. Delivery, rigging and commissioning arranged by your concierge.
ELVARNIXO Continuous — what you see is what you shoot
Hard light is the truth-teller of the grammar; the Castor tells it beautifully — even field across the focus travel, block-battery freedom for locations, steel where the rigging bites.
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.

- Firmware corrects emitter drift as diodes age
- Daylight punch with clean single-shadow optics
- Focusable spot-to-flood with even field across the travel
- Flicker-free past 25,000 fps shutter equivalents at every dimming level

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.
Can I control it from a board and an app at once?
Yes — DMX/RDM, wireless and app control coexist with clear priority rules, and every channel map is printed and downloadable.
The ELVARNIXO Promise
One standard across the range: if it would not survive our own rental fleet, it does not ship with the ELVARNIXO mark.
