KESSIL LIGHTS

[Daveslaney]

Just trying to plan out a few things. How many kessil lights can you run from one controller? Or do i need one controller for each light?

Controllable
Compatible with 0~10V external controllers. Daisy-chain multiple lights for seamless control from a single source.

i have 2 kessil using a cable each to my controller or you use can a link cable that connects 2 kessil to a controller so maybe 4 kessil i think

Thanks Ryan. How do the a150s compare to the a160s?
I might be able to get a good price on a pair of 150s. Or would i be better just biting the bullet and getting the 160s.

im not sure so far i only use the a360we. all i know is the 160 has a wider and stronger light than the 150 but the controller only works with 160 and 360

cheers

Kessil A150WE - click on the Instruction Manual link for details

should have the same 120* lens as the A160W BUT spectral control & intensity control (manual or controller) are "missing", it is also ~15% lower intensity (as I recall)
So definitely less versatile than the 160/360 series
