Redesigned Control Box
As the flagship Light Storm product, the LS 1200d Pro also features a new control box design. The new control box has DMX512 In and Out ports, an industry-standard etherCON connector, two 48V/15A 3-pin XLR Inputs, and an AC Input that are all housed on the side of the fixture in an orientation that maximizes flexibility while minimizing damage. This allows the control box to be positioned upright on its feet, so it can be set down on set seamlessly. The control box also features two Lightning Clamps for different orientations on your light stand.
Power Solutions
As a 1200W COB LED with a maximum power draw of 1440W, the Light Storm 1200d Pro is high-powered fixture that can compete on the same level as HMIs, while still featuring the ability to be operated using DC battery solutions. The 1200d Pro's control box has two 48V/15A (720W) DC Inputs. Providing power to one input will operate the 1200d Pro at half power, and providing sufficient power to both inputs will operate the fixture at full output. With its 1440W maximum power draw, the LS 1200d Pro can also easily be powered using a Honda 2000W generator compared to comparable HMIs that might overload the system.
Built-in Lighting FX
The LS 1200d Pro can utilize 8 different built-in light effects: "Paparazzi", "Fireworks", "Lightning", "Faulty Bulb", "TV", "Pulsing", "Strobe", and "Explosion". The LS 1200d Pro also has the potential to expand further into the SidusPro FX ecosystem.

The LS 1200d Pro features a detailed LCD screen interface that, including a revamped professional UI that displays important information in an intuitive way, including easy-to-read intensity and color information.
Dual Carrying Cases
Housing the 1200d Pro's lamp head, redesigned control box, and 3 Hyper Reflectors, the 1200d Pro is accompanied by a rolling lamp case, and reflector carrying case, making transporting the fixture to and from set a breeze.
Our Workhorse
"I used the Aputure LS 1200d Pro on two projects over the course of a week and it's a great, versatile light. For both projects we didnt have a generator, so low power draw with high output was important. In the first scenario we used it direct on talent through the 1st floor window, or bounced it into a mirror towards the subject or background. In the second scenario we were shooting 12 stories up in a loft and the 1200d was our workhorse, bouncing it off an 8x8 or using it again with the fresnel for a harder source." - Eric Koretz, Cinematographer
Became the Sun
"...we wanted some sort of backlight a lot of times, and also oriented a lot of scenes to the sun. So in the absence of the sun, the 1200d became the light we'd use for that." - Bongani Mlambo, Cinematographer - shooting We're All Going to Die (dir. Freddie Wong, Matt Arnold)
HMI Replacement
"The 1200D has now replaced all my 1.8k HMIs, I’m never looking back." - Matt Plaxco, Cinematographer
