Luminys Blast Light

Luminys specialise in the design of lighting systems for Military testing in the most demanding of environments. Their unique lighting systems provide advanced solutions for high speed image capture for all applications. The proprietary technologies used generate up to 500,000 watts of flicker free light in the most compact and portable design footprints possible. Enabling superior images with reduced shadows, glare and hot spots. Precise control allows units to go from off or idle to full power in a fraction of a second and dim on command. Giving the end user light when you need it while sparing heat and resources when you don’t.

Luminys- 6.5k Blast

The 6.5K Blast™ is a compact, portable system that provides 6500 watts of light for high-G applications such as onboard or military use.

  • 500 G of acceleration resistance
  • Up To sixteen seconds continuous operation
  • 1,000,000 frames per second flicker-free filming
  • Highest quality light (5,400° K, 96 CRI)
  • 37,600 lux  spread 100 degrees wide  at one meter distance
  • 1 millisecond to reach full intensity
  • Remote triggering
  • 30M extension from power supply to light fixture

The luminys Blast light is compact, robust and powerful. Typically used in applications where the lighting fixtures will see high levels of shock and space for installation is at a premium. For in vehicle ballistic tests the light can be easily installed, remotely triggered with up to 16 seconds of full light exposure ensuring the complete cycle of the test inside the vehicle can be recorded. For ease of installation the Blast light uses a battery pack that is shock housed and placed up to 30M from the light head. A two second test firing allows for the set up of camera equipment without running down the batteries.
