The Vibesta Peragos Head 150 Multi-Color COB is a compact, fully color-tunable, battery-operatable, spotlight, that is compatible with endless light modifiers.
This 160W fixture looks to be a good option if you are looking for an affordable, well-featured, and versatile COB light that doesn’t weigh much or take up much space. China Ceiling Mounted Downlight Factory
The light features a Multi-Color COB LED array powered by the Rayzr Light Engine.
The Peragos Head is just 22 cm long and weighs 1.4kg / 3.08 lbs. Its compact size and low weight make it a good option for anyone who is traveling.
The light draws a maximum of 180W and it is CCT adjustable from 1,600-30,000K. It also features full +/- G/M correction. The native beam angle with no modifiers is 120 degrees.
It can be powered via AC or through a V-mount battery. Vibesta also states that you can also use two Sony NP-F batteries, but I would imagine that only allows the light to be run at reduced output.
According to Vibesta, the combination of its specially designed reflector and optional lens attachable through the magnetic attachment system, allows the Peragos Head 150 to produce a brightness equivalent to an 800-1000W incandescent tungsten light.
The built-in RTctrl Bluetooth Module lets you control the Peragos Head with the RTctrl App directly, without additional hardware.
The Vibesta Peragos Head 150 Multi-Color COB has the usual assortment of operating modes such as CCT Mode, HSI Mode, RGB Mode, x,y Coordinate, Filter Mode, and Effects.
The light has an adjustable refresh rate of up to 125000 Hz which makes it flicker-free if you are shooting at higher frame rates. There are also four user-selectable dimming curves you can choose from.
Vibesta gives you four different ways of mounting accessories to the light.
It is nice to see some versatility with mounting options, as a lot of companies making similar lights just throw on a Bowens Mount and call it a day.
Speaking of versatility, it is good to see Vibesta offering a large array of lighting modifiers that you can use with this fixture.
There are optional reflectors, softboxes, lanterns, and barn doors.
The Vibesta Peragos Head 150 Multi-Color COB is now available to purchase. There are quite a few bundles that you can choose from. The base kit costs €399.
