The next big thing in LED studio lighting is here.
Meet the SkyLux from Westcott. The first daylight-balanced studio LED with a CRI Rating of 94+ that allows photographers to utilize their favorite modifiers with the addition of a single Bowens Mount Speedring.

It's all in the design.
The SkyLux is a beautiful, full-color spectrum of light housed in a high-quality, compact, all-metal unit, which embodies a unique design with a flat front panel to protect the LED light source. Meaning, there's no protruding bulb or globe to shatter.

Built to use modifiers of all sizes.
The durable construction allows photographers to utilize their largest modifiers, like the Westcott 7' Octabank, with the simple addition of a Bowens Mount S-Type speedring. The Bowens S-Type mount allows for the usage of softboxes, umbrellas, snoots, barn doors and gels.

Built-in diffusion panel.
The built-in diffusion panel allows photographers to shoot without adding a modifier and still achieve a beautiful, soft, and consistent output.

Recessed LED.
The frosted and diffused LED source is recessed for a shadow free output.

LED impact resistance.
The LED source plate is spring mounted to ensure protection of the LED's if impact should occur.

Simple & easy to setup and use.
Control the output of the SkyLux from 30% to 100% with the rear seamless control dial.

Keeping things compact.
The accompanying external ballast aids to minimize the size of the SkyLux unit by moving large components away from the SkyLux housing.

Extended cables.
Extended cables ensure a versatile and mobile SkyLux unit in the studio.

Long lifespan.
Unlike units utilizing halogen or tungsten bulbs, the SkyLux gives off little heat with it's unique LED design and has a lifespan of over 50,000 hours.

Internal fan.
Photographers will find an internal fan to keep the unit cool, but don't worry about the sound for video. The SkyLux has virtually zero sound while in operation. The quiet fan and flicker free LED technology is a perfect setup for videographers.

Metal construction.
Solid, all-metal tilter-bracket and umbrella mount minimizes the number of hardware components to carry around.

It's all in the details.
An umbrella hole can be found in the supplied parabolic reflector allowing the SkyLux to be positioned directly in the center of your umbrella-framed modifier.

CA Proposition 65

Attention to all California residents, Proposition 65 or officially known as, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings be provided to California consumers when they might be exposed to chemicals identified by California as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help California consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals from the products they use. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicals, which includes more than 850 chemicals. August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, to go into effect on August 30, 2018, which changes the information that is required in or on Proposition 65 warnings.

We want you to know and be aware of our product safety and Midwest Photo is taking all of the necessary steps to comply with the applicable safety and health requirements made by this Proposition 65.

WARNING: This product may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

This disclaimer can be found on the product pages on our website under the Additional Information tab which appears below the product description. It is listed on all product pages to ensure that our customer is aware of the warnings put out by our suppliers so you can know the precautions before purchasing.
