Each Lykos LED light can be easily used handheld, mounted to a stand, or rigged from its cold shoe mount or 1/4-20 posts. Also, by pairing it with the Litepanels SmartLite app, the optional LYKOS Bluetooth® Dongle allows users to control their LED panels remotely to adjust brightness, color temperature, and more with their Apple handheld device.
Additionally, for remarkable color reproduction, the panel includes high CRI/TLCI rated surface-mounted LEDs with custom designed optics and is also flicker-free at any frame rate or shutter angle. These panels also feature smooth dimming from 100% to 0% with no noticeable color shift, which has become a staple in Litepanels lighting. The Lykos has multiple powering options to enable a variety of applications. Powering options include an incorporated L-Series bracket, via optional D-Tap power cable or with the included AC adapter. For added convenience, users can view their light intensity and color temperature mixture settings with the easy to readLCD display on the rear of the panel
