The New 4-LITESTRIP
AVAILABLE IN 120 & 240 VOLTS

A SLICE OF LIGHT 
SOFT CONTROLLED LIGHT
THE NEW BARGER LITESTRIPS

Just what is needed in a backlight.

Since the Chimera strip is only 16 inches high you can place the LITESTRIP backlight where it is needed and not be in the shot. With one of the available grids you have the light control needed.

Place one behind / over the camera, add the grid of choice, switch on the bulbs needed, and there is a selective slice of light.

Need a soft slice of light for a key without all the flagging? Select  the degree of light control needed  via the grid and you have the soft light on the subject’s faces and not on their clothing.

     
4 litestrip  

COMPACT - The 4-LITESTRIP is only 23 inches wide x 16 inches high x 11.25  inches deep. The  4-LS 2 PC  uses four 650 watt 120 volt lamps (FRK) or 240  volts.  Allowing it to work vertical as well as horizontal.  It has the same reflector and tray design as the V2 standard models  with more light out the front and more heat out the rear. The speed ring is built in .

Safety screen is hinged on the bottom with three 1/4 turn fasteners on top to facilitate bulb changes.

 

The 4-LITESTRIP is 16 inches high  x 11.25 inches deep.  From the top to the bottom of the pin is 21 inches. The weight is less than 22 pounds.

From the back of the light to the front of a medium Chimera is 26 inches.
 
The front of the 4-LITESTRIP with a medium Chimera is 49 inches wide. With four 650 watt 120 volt (FRK) bulbs or 240 volt (FRM) bulbs or 230 volt (FRL) bulbs at 500 ASA at 1/50th of a second, you get a F8 at 5 ft., F4 at 10 ft. and F2.8 at 15ft..
As with all Barger-Lites you get the same tall switch guards, the same double pole switches to adjust light levels, and the same rugged, heat resistant wood handles.
 
You can now tuck the Chimera side flaps in the convenient flap holders to control spill light.
Super durable and light weight front cover protects the safety screen and bulbs when in transit.
 

When space is at a premium the combo pin provides the flexability to use a baby light stand or a grip C stand.

 

Same better steel lock washer improving the same great lock off strategy with a large easy to grip handle and a linear bearing to reduce friction when tightening.

 

Same wider reflectors for better light distribution and vented to keep the bulb seals cooler for longer life.
 
A finned socket holder design helps radiate heat away from the socket and bulb seal area.
 

Chimera  has designed a new inproved vent  setup   that allows  the hot air to escape increasing the life of the 4-LITESTRIP while controling light spill on the set .

On the 240 volt  version  the 3 power cables (CE) come ready to install the preferred regional plug.
 

A Combo pin can be used to offset the light by placing it in the side of the bail.

 
For more control / flexability a large grip head with a baby / junior  adaptor pin can be used.  This will allow for tilting and changing angles at the same time.
   
A 90 degree adapter like this one from Modern used for Image 80 Kinos  is also a way to go vertical.
