Available from Filmgear Canada, the amaran Halo 200x is a 179W-output bi-colour Bowens COB for Canadian interview sets that need more reach through diffusion than a compact desk light. It delivers up to 10,530 lux at 1 m bare and powers directly from one AC cable.

  • A practical key-light step: the 10,530-lux bare rating at 1 m provides room for a softbox or bounce while staying below the size and draw of the Halo 300x.
  • No external power brick: connect the included 5 m IEC C13 cable from outlet to fixture. Plan mains access; this model does not use the Halo 60x/100x USB-C PD power path.
  • Shape white light: the Bowens mount accepts compatible softboxes, lanterns and Fresnels, while 2,700–6,500K CCT covers warm practicals to daylight.
  • Set and repeat: onboard adjustment, NFC app pairing and optional USB-C DMX let a solo shooter or small crew choose a control method.
  • Choose the right stand: support the combined head and modifier weight; no stand, reflector or softbox is supplied.

FAQ

Should I choose the Halo 200x or move up to the 300x?

The 200x is rated at 10,530 lux bare at 1 m; the Halo 300x is rated at 16,200 lux under the same bare 1 m reference. Choose based on the distance and diffusion you actually need, not the model number alone.

Does the Halo 200x need a separate ballast?

No. Its power supply is built into the head, and the box includes a 5 m AC cable. Place the stand within safe cable reach of an outlet and secure the cable on a busy set.

What modifier comes with the fixture?

The official box list contains the head and AC cable only. Add a compatible Bowens modifier for the beam you want, plus a stand sized for the assembled rig. A large softbox is useful for a close interview; a Fresnel is a different choice when controlled reach matters.

Will it match other white-light fixtures on a multi-camera set?

Its adjustable 2,700–6,500K range lets you align colour temperature with many tungsten or daylight setups. It is rated CRI 96+ and TLCI 97+; test the complete mix and camera white balance on your own set rather than treating a CCT number as a perfect colour match.

Can I control the Halo 200x without walking to the stand?

Yes. The amaran app can adjust a paired fixture, and an optional USB-C to 5-pin DMX adapter provides a wired-console route. Plan that adapter separately; the head also has local controls.

Can the Halo 200x be used in wet weather?

The Halo 200x is rated IP20, so its fixture and AC connection need dry or fully covered conditions. Do not treat the single-cable design as weather protection.
