Hobolite has recently launched the Avant Max and Avant Mini Max BiColor LED lights.
These lights are designed for content creators who need a durable, compact light source that also looks stylish.
The design is reminiscent of vintage Hasselblad models from the 1960s, with a leather-like cover available in black or brown.
Although they have a vintage appearance, the lights come with modern features such as an easy-to-use button and knob layout, an LED screen that shows dimming and battery life, and a custom magnetic mounting system.
They also support Bluetooth and NFC for control via a mobile device or computer and can accommodate special lighting gels and barn doors.
The Bi-Color LEDs provide 80 watts or 40 watts respectively for the Max and Mini designs, with a peak illumination at 9005 Lux or 7325 Lux, and a high 96-color rating on the CRI/TLCI scale.
These lights offer excellent color and brightness accuracy, with a CCT white balance rating of 2700 to 6500 Kelvin, and dimming control from 0 to 100 percent. The beam angle is adjustable from 20 to 50 degrees.
The Avant Max and Mini Max lights are available in various combo kits. The Standard kit includes a 99-watt hour battery, Lens, handle, USB-C cable, and a 65-watt power adapter.
The Creator kit contains a Barndoor set, color gels, and an AC dual port adapter. The Travel Kit includes an AC dual port adapter, Mini Max Lens, Lite Dock with USB-C cable, color gels, frosted dome, and a 65-watt power adapter.
Pricing and availability:
The Hobolite Avant Max Bi-Color light is available in either brown or midnight black in the Standard Kit for $699, or the Creator Kit for $899.
The Avant Mini Max is available in the Standard Kit for $599, the Creator Kit for $799, and the Travel Kit for $599.
However, the mobile travel kit does not include the 99 Wh rechargeable battery but can be powered by a separate 3450 mAh power bank connection.
With a professional retro style and an impressive range of features, the Hobolite Avant Max and Mini Max Bi-Color lights look to stake their claim in the lighting quiver of any content creator.
