IBC 2014 live show replay: Aladdin’s bendy and waterproof Flex Lite LED panel lights

By technical editor Matt Allard:

One of our favourite products at IBC this week were the flexible LED panels from Korean maker Aladdin. The Flex Lite panel is 25x25cm in size but unlike a conventional light fixture it is in the form of a thin mat. It is both flexible and waterproof and can be shaped around objects, rolled up or attached to surfaces by Velcro. It is perfectly suited to being hidden in a scene and is light enough that it can be carried almost everywhere.

The panel connects to a separate dimmer and power supply that can be run from either mains or battery power. The lights are available in either tungsten (3000K) or daylight (5600K) colours and have a high CRI of over 90. Each unit weight a mere 150g and there will be an optional soft box available soon that simply fits over the panel.

Our team at IBC liked the concept so much we awarded it Best news gathering innovation and Best lighting product in our Best of show awards.

You can find out more about Aladdin lighting products on their website.
