Overview
The Astera Pluto Fresnel – 2-Light Kit includes two PlutoFresnel fixtures with their standard mounting accessories and power supplies, stored in a molded transport case. Each 80W RGBMA LED engine delivers output comparable to a 300W tungsten Fresnel while supporting internal battery or external DC operation.
The optical system combines a next-generation Fresnel lens with an integrated light pipe to produce an even beam with steep fall-off and no chromatic aberration. Manual zoom ranges from 15-degree to 60-degree, allowing use as a spotlight, controlled wash, or open-face source when the lens is removed.
