The DLED7N-T Dedicated 3200K Balanced Flagship Light Head
The dedolight NEO DLED7N-D focusing light head packs the most tungsten LED punch in the medium sized DLED line since the diodes are all dedicated to 3200K. Having a mono-color light ensures quality of color over the dimming arc. It also means you have the maximum possible tungsten output using M-size accessories as well. If you know the DLED7 series well, the new dedolight NEO DLED7N has the same beam quality and output from its predecessor. The optical performance and functionalities are the same. The new DLED7 Neo housing is shorter front to back as the chassis connector is relocated to the bottom. The back casing redesign cuts down light leaks even further. The DLED7N Neo light head is an incredible 30% shorter than the already compact DLED7.
You might have experienced open-faced LED lights that require a beam-shaping accessory to get a fixed angle of exit and change the beam size. Moving the light from the subject is often impractical, time-consuming and sometimes impossible in tight spaces. Dedolight LED focusing lights are just not that: straight out of the box the light has a manual focusing range of 60°- 6° (1:10 light ratio). Think about zooming your light just like the Operator zooms the camera lens. Because you can set the exact beam size you want in seconds, dedolights are in a class of their own.
Difference Between DLED4N and DLED7N
Both the DLED4N and DLED7N light heads share the same housing and operate with DTneo or DTneo+ ballasts, using the same accessories. The difference lies in the power output and beam optimization: the DLED4N is a 40W light head, while the DLED7N is 80W. With more diodes added the DLED7N generates more heat making it an actively cooled light. While nearly silent, the larger COB in the DLED7N versions results in more punch. On the other hand, with a smaller COB, the DLED4N is passively cooled, offering more optimization on the beam quality and considerably longer use in a DC setup. Due to its beam quality the DLED4N unit also has broader light ratios when using optical accessories like the DPBA-714 unit (albeit still not reaching the punch of the DLED7N unit in the same setup).
The DTneo Ballast
This is where the dedolight NEO series truly separates itself from its predecessor. Gone are the days when you needed to choose between an AC, AC+DMX or DC ballasts with the previous DLED series. The DTneo, and DTneo+ (wireless option) offer all the functions you wanted in a single ballast, and more. Starting with AC/DC operation, the DTneo is a DC ballast with a V-mount plate for battery operation. The optional AC adapter electronics is built inside a battery shell that looks like and snaps-on exactly like a V-mount battery. DMX is now a standard feature in all DTNeo ballasts. Use the simple push/turn knob and OLED displayed menu to select between a deep, smooth "linear" or "exponential" dimming curve, or seamlessly change color, without drifting - even at very low settings (0.1 to 100% dimming range). Take advantage of 1000-point 8-bit linear, or 16-bit advanced control (via DMX/RDM protocol). Select the high-speed setting to shoot up to 50,000fps flicker-free. In direct tradition with Dedolight long-lasting equipment, the DTNeo ballast hardware and software are future-proof. The software is user upgradable via USB. The DTneo ballasts have an auto-detect feature to recognize and drive all the upcoming DLEDNeo light heads between 20w-80w. That's not a typo. If you wish to invest for the future, the upcoming DLED3Neo unit, the DLED7Neo Infra-red, Ultra-Violet and even future generations of DLED7Neo, will all be controlled by the DTneo ballast, up to the Neo DLED9. To put it simply, the DTNeo ballast opens the world to an entire new generation of light heads, and the DLED7N-BI leads the party.
With the "DTneo+" version of the ballast you are unlocking the ability to use wireless control via CRMX LumenRadio and Bluetooth.
