The Electro Storm XT26 is a 2600W high-output point-source LED fixture with dynamic white CCT and tint control designed for professionals – featuring dual accessory mounts, professional connectivity methods, G/M tint control, advanced liquid-cooling technology, and an IP65 dust & water-resistant construction. At 2,600W of intense power output, the Electro Storm XT26 approaches the brightness of industry-standard 12,000W tungsten fresnels and 4,000W HMIs, making it one of the most powerful point-source LEDs on the market to date.
With dual accessory mounts, the Electro Storm XT26 features both the universal Bowens Mount and all-new electronic Aputure Mount compatibility, making it one of the most adaptable fixtures on the market. Designed with higher stability, durability, and optimization for heavy-duty modifiers, the Aputure Mount is compatible with 3 new reflectors (20°, 35°, 50°), and the 14-inch F14 Fresnel, and communicates data for both optimized color accuracy and motorized focus control.
Expanding the motorized electronic accessories designed for the Electro Storm XT26, it is also compatible with an optional Motorized Yoke for smooth remote operation of pan and tilt adjustments when suspended or rigged in hard-to-reach areas, drastically increasing workflow efficiency on set.
The Electro Storm XT26 features a powerful chipset to produce accurate color throughout its CCT range from 2,700K to 6,500K, maintaining Aputure’s quality standards with SSI (D56) [74+] and SSI (Tungsten) [85+] scores. The Electro Storm XT26’s latest-gen dynamic white chipset now also features green-magenta color correction with +/- .050dUV shift between 3,000K to 6,000K.
To cool this fixture’s massive LED engine, the Electro Storm XT26 is equipped with advanced liquid-cooling technology to give users access to as much light output as possible.
Designed for professionals, the Electro Storm XT26 features advanced connectivity options (including Sidus Link app control, LumenRadio CRMX, Art-net & sACN via etherCON, and 16-bit DMX512). And its rugged IP65 dust and weather resistant construction renders the Electro Storm XT26 capable of withstanding demanding filming environments without worrying about performance or reliability.
