[1200 W ] Is the best light ever, hopping to see al the accesories for this Light

[Proprietary] I've now been using this light regularly for the last 5 months and can confidently say it's paying itself off.



Few things of note...


- Built quality is holding and I'm happy with how its working. The most minor complaint is that it can be a tight fit to get the lamphead onto the Yoke but it does give me confidence that it's not going to come lose.

- The Carry case that is made of hardened plastic covered with fabric is working great. I've rented this light a few times and haven't developed any tears. Years of use may prove me wrong but it's still in good shape.
- Phone app: I know many people won't believe me but I've been quite happy with the Nanlite app and using it on set. I own 8 different Nanlite fixtures and having everything working on a single phone app is really helpful.
- Output: As for the usefulness of this fixture in Studio and on set environments... I use this in combination with x2 720b's, x2 500's, and a few other smaller lights and this holds its place with being able to fill any space I need to light and very often being set outside a window to fill up an interior daytime scene. It's got enough punch that I'm able fill a 8x8 with Magic Cloth and have enough output for the camera.

I hope this helps!

[1200 W ] I got a chance to test this light out on set.
I thought the light would use only half of its power at daylight or tungsten but it actually doesn’t sacrifice its output.
Hefty price tag but worth saving up to buy. I had my eye on the Aputure 1200d but being able to punch light through a window and soften it is game changer for me. My only thing is that I wish they add some type of electric basics on the light for gaffers who started out using led fixtures because although you could run it in the house, you still need to be careful.

[Daylight] The TK450 is bright! It's brighter than the largest ARRI SkyPanel. Love the wide light wrap you can get from this form factor. Perfect through a 6x6' diffusion.
The power supply and cabling is first rate, totally pro.
At 100% output the rear case / heat sink gets very hot. The front just gets warm.

[1200 W ] Output is amazing, built quality is amazing, having it outside without covering it during a winter storm is amazing.

[5600K] Having seen this reviewed by Andrew at Gaffer & Gear on Youtube I knew this was one on the items to add to my grip truck. With great photo metrics and output this is a heavy hitter for my small scale shoots where M18's are out of the running.

My use is VERY limited at the moment so I'll need to come back and update this. If you're looking for a detailed spec review look for it on Youtube.


Build quality seems excellent so far. Comparing this to Aperture 1200d I could see there being some more visible signs of scratching and wear on the outside by I wouldn't doubt this unit can last me 5-10 years. (This is if the tech does not get outpaced)


A small complaint is having the physical controls on the back of the head. I would prefer this to be in the ballast but they do give you a small remote and the phone app works just fine.



Only problem i did have was the first order I received came with a broken wheel on the case. I got a free replacement case however that does concern me that the wheels have the potential to break with time. We shall see...

[Daylight] They work as expected and fit inside one another which is as it should be.

[5600K] If you have an Evoke then you definitely need these. They're very cheap for the expanded functionality they bring to the Evoke, they give you more output, and they're much lighter than the huge frensel. The only drawback I could see would be the size of the 26 degree. But, given the huge amount of output it gives you, it's not really a big deal in my mind. They're easy to store as they come stacked together in a fairly thick draw string bag, so the 60 degree packs away in its own bag and lives underneath the 26 degree. The whole kit lives on my truck and takes up less space than a 1200 HMI, but delivers the firepower of an M18. I do wish there was an even tighter reflector, like a 12 degree. Would it get used very often? Probably not, but it'd be nice to have. All in all, these are absolutely worth getting if you own an evoke.
