Kino Flo's award-winning FreeStyle 41 unleashes your creativity with a quick-release function allowing removal of the LED panel from the fixture, reducing weight by nearly half (from 7.3 kg/16 lbs to 4.4 kg/9.6 lbs) and creating a smaller form factor for improved mounting flexibility. The LED panel's corner guards can be used to hang it from rope or wire. The panel also accepts a screw-on mount for working on light stands. The Freestyle 41 comes complete with the colour-programmable FreeStyle controller, a head cable (7.6 m), a complete fixture with removable LED panel and a quick-release KinoGrip centre mount. 90-degree or 60-degree honeycomb grids, attached with hook-and-loop tape, provide directional lighting and, once removed, the panel displays a wide soft beam on set. The FreeStyle 41 is known for its >96 white light, full-saturation colour, cinema gel choices and RGB chromatic selection via the 150 Watts AC/DC FreeStyle controller. It features built-in Lumen Radio wireless DMX; no additional cost for wireless receiver accessories. The light can also be used directly up to 15 metres from the controller via Kino Flo head cables.
Freestyle drive technology delivers bright, soft light with continuous dimming from 100% to 0% on a linear or square curve without flicker at high camera speeds or with variable shutter angles. There is no change in light level when switching from 2500K to 9900K and colour does not change when light levels increase or decrease. Colour and brightness remain stable throughout the LED's rated lifespan thanks to Kino Flo's advanced True Match daylight and tungsten colour management system, which has proven itself since Kino Flo introduced the True Match Celeb soft-panel studio LED concept six years ago. Passive cooling keeps LEDs in good condition for a longer lifespan than units requiring electric fans.
In the Gels/Hue menu, the Kelvin range is extended from 2500K to 9900K daylight and a fourth channel is called Gel. The Gel channel includes Kino Flo presets such as blue and green screen, sodium vapour, mercury vapour as well as over 100 well-known lighting gels. The gel function can be applied at any Kelvin temperature and by pressing the control button, the gel will be applied or removed. A fifth channel called Hue Angle and a sixth channel Saturation are also included in the gel menu. These two channels behave similarly to a traditional colour wheel, where white light is at the centre and Hue Angle determines colour over a 360-degree range and Saturation determines the amount of colour applied. With Hue Angle and Saturation, it is possible to create over 2 million colour combinations!
The RGB colour menu allows individual control of red, green and blue LEDs. RGB mode is an excellent way to work with applications with predetermined RGB presets or colour wheels. The RGB menu is also an excellent function for dialling in specific gel RGB values or when controlling colours from a DMX console. The FX (Effects) menu introduced on 1 June 2018 gives access to popular effects such as Candle, Fire, TV, Police, Lightning, Paparazzi, Pulse and Scroll. Once on the desired effect, several presets as well as control parameters can be modified. For example, in the Lightning effect, there is a "Storm" and "Frankenstein" preset, but speed can be modified to bring additional variation.
In the colour menu, the Kelvin range goes from 2500K tungsten to 9900K daylight and Kino Flo has implemented a fourth channel called Gel. The Gel channel includes Kino Flo presets such as blue and green screen, sodium vapour, mercury vapour and over 100 well-known lighting gels. Additionally, there is also a fifth channel called Hue Angle and a sixth channel, Saturation. These two channels behave similarly to a traditional colour wheel, where you have white light at the centre and hue angle determines colour over a 360-degree range and Saturation determines the amount of colour applied. The second colour menu provides individual control of red, green, blue (RGB). The RGB menu is an excellent way to work with applications with predetermined RGB presets or colour wheels.
The FreeStyle 151 LED DMX Controller
The firmware mentioned above is loaded onto the FreeStyle LED controller and can drive the Freestyle 41 fixture remotely with a 7.6 m extension cable or can directly power the panel when mounted on the back of the fixture. The Freestyle controller (LED-151X) includes standard cable DMX input/output ports as well as wireless DMX connectivity (Lumen Radio). The controller has a universal AC voltage input 100-240 V AC (1.25 Ampere at 120 V AC) as well as a 3-pin XLR for 24 V DC operation (6.25 A). The new Kino Flo FreeStyle LEDs are also equipped with standard DMX and wireless DMX (Lumen Radio), 24 V DC input and universal voltage input 100-240 V AC (1.25 Ampere at 120 V AC). The FreeStyle 151 LED DMX controller firmware can be updated from a PC using the Mini B data port.
FreeStyle 41 LED Fixture
The FreeStyle LED fixture includes integrated barn doors and consists of a removable LED panel and baffle. The baffle is held in place by hook-and-loop fasteners. The LED panel can be removed from the fixture housing by pressing the locking pin and turning the wing screw. The fixture has a quick-release mounting plate to accept a quick-release mount. The LED panel also has a quick-release mounting plate to accept a removable quick-release mount and has moulded corners for additional mounting options.

FreeStyle LED Benefits
Energy Efficiency
The FreeStyle LED DMX operates on universal AC power or battery and requires only 1.25 A at 120 V AC or 6.25 A at 24 V DC (FreeStyle 41 LED). The FreeStyle LED's cost savings through its low power consumption and long LED lifespan perpetuate Kino Flo's reputation as an environmentally conscious lighting company.
Long LED Lifespan
LEDs are well known for being energy efficient, lasting thousands of hours. Although the Kino Flo FreeStyle LED also has a long LED lifespan, the unique FreeStyle LED design will maintain its correct colour temperature.
Correct True Match Colour
Like all Kino Flo products, the FreeStyle LED has been specially formulated to match the spectral distribution curves of today's film and HD video equipment. The FreeStyle LED has a high colour rendering index of CRI 95. Even during dimming, the fixture is flicker-free and colour-shift free.
Thermal Management Design
For Kino Flo, thermal management is an essential design element of fixtures. Physical heat or heat build-up in the LED fixture will directly influence colour temperature, light performance and LED lifespan. The unique FreeStyle LED design runs cool, consumes very little power (1.25 A, 120 V AC) and is properly ventilated to maintain a stable colour temperature. Well-controlled temperature prolongs LED lumen maintenance, colour temperature and lifespan.
Cost Savings
Cost savings cover a wide range of concerns:
- Reduced energy costs
- Less heat, therefore reduced air conditioning costs
Energy Saving Calculations
With the desire to reduce fossil fuel consumption, television studios are considering cooler, more efficient lighting systems to reduce costs and save energy. Part of this process involves generating energy values to determine savings. One of the most important values is Btu/kWh.
