Godox KNOWLED AM1600R

DESCRIPTION

The Godox KNOWLED AM1600R is a full-colour cinematic lighting solution designed to deliver soft, expansive, and ultra-flexible illumination for professional film and broadcast productions. With 1600 W of power, an inflatable butterfly frame, and comprehensive colour control (CCT, RGBW, HSI, GEL, FX), it’s ideal for film, television, commercials, live events, and remote location shoots.

Available in 4×8 ft and 8×8 ft versions, it provides exceptional output and broad coverage, allowing lighting designers to adapt easily to different set sizes and lighting needs.

The foldable, inflatable design ensures quick setup and easy transport, while its IP54-rated construction makes it durable for both indoor and outdoor use. The unit is a perfect solution for cinematographers and gaffers seeking large, lightweight soft-light panels with advanced control and high efficiency.

The AM1600R enables multi-unit synchronization, precise intensity and colour adjustments in real time, and mounting flexibility without the need for traditional truss systems.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

What control options are available?

The AM1600R supports DMX512/RDM, CRMX wireless, Ethernet (Art-Net/sACN), Bluetooth/NFC, and onboard control — ideal for multi-unit installations.

Is it suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. Both the light body and controller are IP54-rated for dust and splash resistance, making them ideal for outdoor shooting conditions.

How long does the inflatable setup take?

The frame inflates in about 3 minutes and remains pressurized for up to 15 days without maintenance, greatly simplifying overhead installation.

What is the difference between the 4×8 and 8×8 versions?

The 4×8 ft version offers higher intensity in a smaller area, while the 8×8 ft version provides a softer, broader light for larger setups.

Can multiple AM1600R units be combined in one setup?

Yes. Its modular design and multi-unit sync capabilities allow seamless integration of several fixtures for complex lighting designs.
