Small, punchy and RGB Arri Skypanel

The Arri Skypanel family is growing But we think the two most useful sizes for Greenkit customers are the ARRI Skypanel S30 and its bigger brother the ARRI Skypanel S60. Skypanels are fully colour tuneable, so no need to fiddle with additional gels. They come pre-loaded with the full sequence of product numbers for both Rosco and Lee gels.  In addition Skypanels also offer special effects from sirens to fireworks – at the touch of a button!

ARRI build quality, battery options and all the colours of the rainbow

ARRI lights are handmade in Germany to robust and exacting standards. So the ARRI Skypanel S30 won’t let you down on set. It’s easy to run off Vlok batteries using the special adapter plate. If you use mains power you’re looking at a power consumption of less than 200 watts. For that you’ll get a punch that exceeds a 1kw tungsten and matches a 3kw space light.

The ARRI Skypanel S30 is a compact powerhouse

While it’s still a chunky package, as you’d expect with all these features, the light itself is a manageable 9kg and fully packed the unit weighs less than 14kg. The power supply can be unclipped from the unit if you want to reduce the weight for rigging.

When one Skypanel isn’t enough link two ARRI Skypanel S30s and control them from your phone

It’s easy to daisy chain more than one ARRI Skypanel together using the ARRI Stellar app, and programme them to give you a variety of effects. Either the ARRI Skypanel S30 or the ARRI Skypanel S60 can be rigged on regular stand or mounted overhead if you have the facilities. Use the special remote unit to control the ARRI Skypanel S30 from the ground without having to derig the fixture.

Green note on the Arri Skypanel S3O

We love the effects that gels give you but hate the waste generated by all those offcuts. So the ARRI skypanel series ticks the environmental boxes for waste management as well as for power consumption.
