Rigel Standard Head

ELVARNIXO Strobes — daylight, on demand
Heads are where pack systems succeed or sulk; the Rigel succeeds — machined tube seats, strain-relieved cables available as spares, and steel where rigging happens.
These strobes are built the way rental houses wish all flash was: stable colour from full power to the ninth stop down, recycle times that hold at frame twenty of a burst, and user-replaceable flashtubes seated in machined mounts. Fans are temperature-governed and honest about their noise figure, and modelling LEDs track flash output so what you see is what fires.
Design & Craft
- IGBT control with t0.1 flash durations stated per power step
- Recycle times measured at mains voltage, honest at burst frame twenty
- Focusable tube position for wide-to-punch control
- Aluminium housing; every board potted against vibration
- Heads stay cool under packs pushing full amperes

Questions, Answered
How fast is the recycle really?
Rated at mains voltage and full power in the specification, as stated by the manufacturer, with the burst behaviour noted. Battery units state shots per charge at full and half power.
How consistent is the colour across power levels?
Colour stability across the power range is stated in the manufacturer's specification — typically within ±150 K. Check the listing for the exact figure for each model.
