Portable Soft LED Light Panel

A client-style reference project demonstrating compact soft-light engineering, integrated dimming control, and flexible battery or studio power architecture.

This project showcases the development of a compact professional soft-light fixture designed for video, film, and studio applications requiring broad, high-quality white light in a portable format.

The portable soft-light fixture represents the kind of compact lighting platform we can help clients develop when they need dependable soft light, practical portability, and production-oriented control options. The fixture architecture combines a 36-LED panel, integrated diffuser, onboard and remote dimming, DMX capability, and support for both battery-powered and studio-powered workflows. Its format is suited to broadcasters, location crews, and studio operators who need soft, aesthetically clean shadows, flexible deployment, and a rugged product structure that avoids frequent lamp replacement. The platform also demonstrates experience in LED optics, portable power design, accessory compatibility, and compact fixture packaging for professional imaging environments.

Compact soft-light engineering with practical control options

• Optics designed for soft-light versatility. — The fixture modifies beam output from each of its 36 LEDs to support broader application flexibility.
• Integrated control architecture. — Onboard local dimming, remote dimming, and built-in DMX are included as standard.
• Field and studio power compatibility. — Supports V-lock battery operation, external 4-pin XLR input, and optional universal mains transformer workflows.
• Configurable white-light product variants. — Supports daylight or tungsten versions, with bi-colour and FX options also available.
• Accessory-aware mechanical design. — Optional barn doors, egg crate, and diffusion-angle options support more application-specific light shaping.
• 45 W — Approximate power consumption
• 10–30 VDC — Operating voltage range

Built for broadcasters, studios, and location crews

• Broad soft-light appeal. — Designed for image makers who need dependable, flattering soft light in compact setups.
• Studio and mobile deployment fit. — Battery-capable design supports location work without giving up studio integration.
• Long-life operating economics. — No bulbs or tubes to replace for 25,000 hours supports lower maintenance expectations.
• Control options expected in pro workflows. — Dimmable locally or through DMX using standard professional connectors.
• Clean soft-shadow output. — Integrated diffuser is designed to deliver a visually pleasing single soft shadow.
• Accessory expansion potential. — The product platform supports shaping and mounting add-ons for broader market coverage.
• 300 × 300 mm — Fixture dimensions
• 3.8 kg — Approximate weight including diffuser

Why this fixture platform is commercially credible

• Dependable high-colour-quality light. — Engineered for professional image-makers requiring broad, soft, high-quality white light.
• Compact middle-format footprint. — Small enough for flexible deployment while still delivering professional soft-light utility.
• Portable power flexibility. — Accepts standard V-lock battery systems rather than forcing a proprietary battery ecosystem.
• Integrated control without system complexity. — DMX and dimming are included rather than added as a separate control burden.
• Long-life LED product strategy. — A 25,000-hour lamp-life proposition supports continuous-use environments and service simplicity.
• Accessory-compatible fixture ecosystem. — Optional shaping and mounting components increase application breadth and commercial usability.
• Reference design for similar client developments. — Strong model for clients seeking compact soft-light panels for broadcast and imaging markets.
• 36 LEDs — LED count in the panel architecture
• 25,000 hrs — Stated LED service life
