Product Overview
The amaran Halo 300x is a 300W-class bi-color COB monolight and the studio anchor of the Halo series. Set the name aside: this is not a ring light. It is a point-source Bowens mount fixture, the same form factor as an Aputure 300-series COB, built to drive real modifiers.
With 16,200 lux at 1 m bare, it keys interviews, talking-head sets and podcast studios through a 90 cm softbox with room to spare. It runs off one 5 m AC cable with no external power brick, and the whole head stays compact enough to live on a small stand. Reviewers describe it as the successor to Aputure's original 300x line, and that is exactly the slot it fills in the range.
Key Features
- 305W max draw bi-color COB with up to 16,200 lux at 1 m bare and 29,954 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. Two independent spectrometer reviews measured the same values on production units.
- Bowens mount and an 85 degree bare beam that fills big softboxes and lanterns evenly.
- All-in-one monolight design: one 5 m AC cable, no external adapter.
- Control on the fixture, in the amaran app over Bluetooth (up to 80 m), or on DMX consoles via the optional USB-C to 5-pin adapter.
- Max fan noise is 28 dBA, with a silent mode (output capped at 42W) for critical audio takes.
Which Halo Size?
All five Halo models share the same color engine, Bowens mount and 85 degree bare beam. Pick by output and power source.
| Model | Max output (bare, 1 m) | Power draw | Power input | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Halo 60x | 3,270 lux | 63W | USB-C PD | Desktop setups and travel kits |
| Halo 100x | 4,890 lux | 100W | USB-C PD or DC | Small rooms and solo creators |
| Halo 200x | 10,530 lux | 200W | AC | Home studio key light |
| Halo 300x (this light) | 16,200 lux | 305W | AC | Interview and studio key light |
| Halo 600x | 32,500 lux | 610W | AC | Large rooms and big modifiers |
The full lineup lives in our amaran Halo collection.
Halo or Something Else?
Three honest alternatives. If you need RGB color, battery power or splash resistance for location work, the amaran Ray 360c covers this output class with amaran's full-color engine. If color fidelity is the priority for high-end commercial work, the Aputure STORM 400x measures higher on SSI in the same independent tests and adds a tougher production build. And if you are cross-shopping bi-color COBs at this wattage, we also stock the Nanlite FS-300B. Happy to compare all three against your actual jobs.
In the Box
- 1x amaran Halo 300x
- 1x amaran IEC C13 AC Power Cable (5 m)
Only the power cable is included. No Halo ships with a softbox or reflector, so plan a Bowens modifier from the start. The amaran Light Dome 90 is the natural interview pairing here. The fixture is rated IP20, so keep it to indoor and covered work.
Where to Buy in Canada
Buy the amaran Halo 300x from Filmgear Canada for Canada-wide shipping, Vancouver pickup and Canadian dealer warranty support. It is on our Vancouver showroom floor with the rest of the Halo family, so you can see the output difference between the 200x, 300x and 600x before choosing. Building an interview kit from scratch? Ask us to spec the light, modifier and stand together so everything works on day one.
