BB&S Compact Fresnel Light
The Compact Fresnel Light (CFL) is a new type of LED for studio, stage and architectural lighting. With a 5.5” footprint, these versatile LED powerhouses draw just 40 Watts yet produce up to 2900-lumen output at 97 TLCI (Bicolor). (Tunable from 2700 to 6000 kelvin). Each fixture comes with a 6' cable with a 4-pin XLR Male connector.
CFL outputs a hard-shadow rendering beam that fades from 100% at the center to 50% at the edges, so it is good for mixing and overlapping with other lights while eliminating blinding glare.
The CFL and CBL Bi-color fixtures can be used with DMX/RDM with the optional Bi-Color 4-Way Controller (BBS-3694) that can control two Bi-Color fixtures with 4-Pin XLR.
Integrated Zoom
CFL has a smart ring-controlled focus system zooming from 12° to 52° degrees that is manually adjustable by turning the ring on the fixture. It is powerful enough to be used as key, fill, or backlight on positions typically from 3 to 6-meter distances in any newsroom, on set, or in architectural applications where a compact punch light is needed.
Small & Cost-effective
CFL is small & cost-effective, each fixture offers the identical 1.6 kg/3.5- lbs weight and dimensions (175mm/ 6.5” long, 145mm/ 5.7” diameter), allowing quick repositioning within the same grid brackets or clamps as other CFLs. Due to its small size, the CFL fits anywhere.
The BB&S curved Fresnel lens ensures an even field distribution alongside excellent shadow rendering as a true Fresnel and efficient cutting with optional magnetic 360-degree rotatable barndoors.

The BB&S engineers designed the CFL to run silent, due to an effective heat dissipation rear section that eliminates a cooling fan and thereby produces no audible noise on set (completely silent )
