Product Information

Full details

The Amaran Spotlight SE - 36 Degree Lens Kit is designed for filmmakers and creators using Amaran 150c or 300c LED monolights (or other Bowens Mount fixtures up to 300W) who need to precisely shape light for specific scene aesthetics. Its key benefit is transforming a standard LED light into a powerful, shapeable spotlight with a uniform beam. A minor caveat is its weight and size when an optional iris is attached, though it remains more compact than larger projection mounts.

FAQs

What lights is the Amaran Spotlight SE compatible with?

It is compatible with Bowens Mount point-source fixtures up to 300W, including the Amaran 150c, 300c, and other Amaran COB S Series lights like the 100x S or 200d S.

What is the beam angle of the included lens?

The kit includes a 36-degree lens, which provides a wider beam spread suitable for larger areas.

How do I change the projected image (gobo)?

Slide out the gobo holder, insert a new M-Size gobo, and re-insert the holder into the Spotlight SE's designated slot.

Can I use other sizes of gobos?

This Spotlight SE model is designed for M-Size gobos. Ensure you use the correct size for proper function.

How do I focus the Spotlight SE?

Loosen the red retaining screw on the side of the Spotlight SE and slide the lens assembly back and forth until the desired focus is achieved, then retighten the screw.

Does the Spotlight SE come with an iris?

No, the iris is sold separately. The Spotlight SE comes with 15 M-Size gobos.

How do I clean the lenses and optics?

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently clean the lenses. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting

Light beam is not uniform or has hotspots.

Ensure the lens is properly seated and focused. Check that the gobo (if used) is correctly inserted and not warped. Verify the light fixture's output is consistent.

Gobos are not projecting clearly.

Adjust the focus of the Spotlight SE. Ensure the gobo is placed correctly in the holder and the holder is fully inserted into the unit. Clean the gobo if it is dusty.

Spotlight SE is loose on the light fixture.

Confirm the Bowens Mount locking mechanism is fully engaged on both the light fixture and the Spotlight SE. Ensure no obstructions are preventing a secure connection.

Shutters are difficult to adjust.

Check the shutter slots for any debris or obstructions. Gently clean the shutters and their tracks. Ensure the Spotlight SE is not at an extreme temperature, which could affect the mechanism.
