The Aputure NOVA II 1x1 Travel Kit is the rolling-hard-case package for the 500W full-color NOVA II 1x1 panel, built for Canadian crews that move fixtures between studios, rental prep, trucks, and location sets. It keeps the same BLAIR-CG color engine, IP65 build, CRMX/DMX control, and compact 1x1 format, then adds the dedicated NOVA 1x1 rolling hard case.

Product Overview

The Aputure NOVA II 1x1 Travel Kit pairs the NOVA II 1x1 led panel light with its rolling hard case for safer transport and faster location handling. The fixture delivers up to 108,200 lux at 1m at 5600K with no modifier, uses a 500W output design, and includes a 95-degree flat diffuser for broader light. Its BLAIR-CG light engine gives you 1,800K-20,000K CCT, full +/- green control, more than 90% Rec.2020 coverage, and high color metrics for camera-critical work. For Filmgear Canada buyers, this is the package to choose when the same pro video lighting performance needs a purpose-built travel and storage case.

How It Compares

Compared with the standard Aputure NOVA II 1x1 package, this Travel Kit adds the NOVA 1x1 rolling hard case while keeping the same lamp head, yoke, diffuser, AC cable, safety chain, output, and control features. Choose this kit when the fixture will be transported regularly or needs a dedicated case for rental, truck, or location work. Compared with the Aputure NOVA II 2x1 Travel Kit, this is the smaller 500W package; the 2x1 Travel Kit is the larger 1,000W option. You can also compare the non-case Aputure NOVA II 2x1 if output matters more than case inclusion.

Who Is This For?

This Aputure NOVA II 1x1 Travel Kit is for gaffers, cinematographers, rental houses, broadcast crews, and commercial studios that need a high-output led video light panel with its own rolling hard case. It is especially useful for crews that load in and out often, support multiple locations, or want one protected package for a compact but powerful full-color panel.

Who Should Choose Something Else?

Choose the no-case NOVA II 1x1 if the fixture will mostly stay in a studio or you already own the right case. Choose the NOVA II 2x1 or NOVA II 2x1 Travel Kit if you need a larger 1,000W panel or a wider light area. Choose a smaller light if compact battery-first operation is more important than 500W output, IP65 protection, and networked control.
