Product Overview

The amaran Halo 100x is a 100W bi-color COB monolight in the same ultra-compact footprint as the Halo 60x. The Halo name refers to amaran's product line, not to a ring light. This is a point-source Bowens mount fixture, so it works with the same softboxes, domes and fresnels as any studio COB.

It is the small Halo to pick when a 60x is not quite enough. With 4,890 lux at 1 m bare it can key a solo creator in a small room, and it still packs down for travel. Power is flexible: use the included DC adapter at a desk, or feed it from a 100W USB-C PD 3.0 source on the road.

Key Features

  • 100W bi-color COB with up to 4,890 lux at 1 m bare and 8,722 lumens of total output.
  • Color temperature runs from 2,700K to 6,500K with separate brightness and CCT knobs.
  • Accurate white light: CRI 96+ and TLCI 97+. amaran rates SSI at 84 tungsten and 74 daylight, matching what independent spectrometer reviews measured.
  • Bowens mount and an 85 degree bare beam that fills softboxes evenly.
  • Two power paths: the included AC to DC 100W adapter, or USB-C PD 3.0 at 100W (20V/5A). A USB-C cable is not included, so add one if you plan battery or power-bank use.
  • Control on the fixture, in the amaran app over Bluetooth (up to 80 m), or over DMX with the optional USB-C adapter.
  • Max fan noise is 28 dBA, with a silent mode (output capped at 20W) for critical audio.

Halo or Something Else?

The Halo 100x is bi-color only. If your work needs RGB color, magnetic battery power and splash resistance, look at the amaran Ray 120c instead. If your room or subject distance keeps growing, the Halo 200x doubles the output and moves to a simple single AC cable. Filmgear Canada stocks all of them.

In the Box

  • 1x amaran Halo 100x
  • 1x amaran AC to DC 100W Power Adapter (2.5 m)
  • 1x amaran IEC C13 AC Power Cable (2 m)
  • 1x amaran 1/4-20 to Baby Pin Adapter with Tilt

No softbox or reflector comes in the box anywhere in the Halo line, so budget for a Bowens modifier from day one. The amaran Light Dome 60 pairs naturally with this size. The fixture is rated IP20, so keep it to indoor and covered work.

FAQ

Is Amaran Halo 100x Bi-Color LED Light better than Amaran Ray?

Choose Halo when you need bi-color white light and a clean key or fill workflow. Choose Ray when RGB color, creative effects, or a COB-style color fixture is the reason for buying.

Which Halo size should I choose?

Match the size to subject distance, room size, modifier size, stand capacity, and travel needs. Larger Halo models make more sense when output and coverage matter more than packing small.

Can Amaran Halo 100x Bi-Color LED Light work for interviews?

Yes. It is a sensible interview direction when you need bi-color CCT control, softbox or bounce use, and repeatable white-light setups without moving into a bigger system.

What accessories should I check first?

Check the softbox or reflector path, grid needs, stand and sandbag support, case expectations, battery or AC power plan, and whether the light needs app or DMX-style control.

Where can I buy Amaran Halo 100x Bi-Color LED Light in Canada?
