The Aputure Electro Storm XT26 is a 2,600W bi-color LED monolight, sitting at the top of the Storm series and squarely targeting HMI-replacement work. It throws a hard, daylight-balanced beam through a Bowens mount, so you can run it through a Light Dome, soft skirt, or the F14 Fresnel for a long, controlled throw.

Bi-color rather than RGB: tunable white across the standard cinema range with high CRI / TLCI for skin tones, but no full-RGB hue control. That's the trade for the much higher output.

This version ships with a US-style power cord. Confirm your AC service can supply it: at this wattage you typically want a dedicated 20A or higher circuit, not a shared household outlet.

Where it fits

  • Daylight key through a window or scrim — HMI replacement for interiors
  • Hard top light or punch through frames on commercials and music videos
  • Sun source on bigger interior builds

Available from Filmgear Canada with Canada-wide shipping.

FAQ

Should I choose XT26 or CS15?

Choose XT26 when maximum tunable-white output is the job. Choose CS15 when the job needs RGB color, saturated looks, or a full-color Electro Storm fixture.

Should I buy the Monolight package?

Choose the monolight package when you want the fixture package first and prefer to decide the case, transport, modifier, and rigging path separately.

Is the US 60A Plug version right for my power plan?

The US 60A Plug version is the simpler purchase path when that plug format matches the production power plan. For uncertain power, ask Filmgear Canada before committing.

Which accessories should I plan with XT26?

Plan the F14 Fresnel, Electro Storm reflector kit, Spotlight Max, motorized yoke, Sidus control, stand class, sandbags, power, and transport before treating the fixture as a complete production package.
