A: Joker 800The Joker 800, designed around a UV-block bulb originally commissioned by K5600, was the first unit of this wattage introduced on the market.More Output in LightbanksDesigned specifically to take full advantage of the large reflective material inside a Lightbank, this fixture provides 50% more output than a regular PAR 1200W, and a better spread of light thanks to the bare-bulb design of the Bug-Lite.Two Beamers AvailableLike the Joker 1600W, the Joker 800W can be used with two different Beamers :The PAR beamer which features a specular reflector and can be used with the classic set of four lenses supplied in all Joker-Bug kits (Medium, Wide, Super Wide and Frosted Fresnel).The Zoom Beamer which consists of a segmented reflector, focusable from 15 to 55 degrees.High Speed Ballast & Wireless CapabilitiesThe 800W comes with a dimmable ballast, which is able to work at 300 or 1000 Hz frequencies for High Speed shoots. Using the Lumenradio protocol, the new ballast now has an antenna and DMX panel allowing for it to be controlled via a tablet or smartphone.

The complete kit weighs only 47lbs and is compact making it perfect for tiny spaces, and can be run on domestic electrical supply

Q: 5. Does anyone fully understand the bicolor aspect of this light? I've been watching NAB videos and it seems like the balast is universal but you may have to swap the head for tungsten 2k open face mode.. Don't quite understand yet. thanks!

A: For the Joker2 1600 and our Joker2 800 their is an alternate rear cap that will be available in about 8 weeks that will allow you to mount a Tungsten 2k or 1k lamp in the same socket as the daylight version. The igniter cap is removed by Two screws and un-clipped from the buglite head. You can the mount the alternate rear cap that has an on/off switch and plug so you may use the tungsten lamps. This allows you a 2k/1k Tungsten Par or buglite when you need it without having to carry an additional fixture. This is a very quick, simple swap of caps.

Q: 6. How loud is the fan in db? Does it have variable speeds? Does the fan slow down when the speaker is in standby mode?

A: The QSC K8.2 Two-Way 8" 2000W Powered Portable PA Speaker with DSP Processor (BH # QSK82) features a very quiet, low-noise fan. Once the amplifier reaches a certain temperature, the fan engages at very a low speed, and as the amplifier heats up, a clever algorithm in the DSP will instruct the fan to speed up accordingly. There are no published specifications for the dB level but it is not audible while content is playing.
