Cineo ReFlex R15: a whole new category of hybrid media production
lighting.
Dedication to creating lighting products that fulfill the expectations of motion picture and
television professionals has been Cineo’s passion since our first high-power LED soft-light studio
fixtures. And now with ReFlex we’ve applied patented, groundbreaking technologies to create a
high-output, focusable-beam, fully dimmable hard light which exceeds the capabilities of
traditional lighting tools. ReFlex also re-defines versatility by delivering both high-output hard
lighting combined with soft lighting capabilities.
ReFlex R15 delivers 125,000 lumens of flicker-free and color stable digital lighting with less than a
1,500 watt AC power draw. By providing constantly variable CCT, it can replace both high-output
tungsten, large HMI fixtures and everything in-between. Beam angle adjustment from 15 to 75
degrees is accomplished without mechanical movement, making it remotely adjustable; and the
Advanced Beam Control opens a whole new realm of possibilities. The reflector can easily be
removed and replaced with a variety of structured soft lighting solutions.
Cineo has completely re-designed its control strategy, making it as easy to use as your smart
phone. A full complement of remote control protocols are supported including DMX/RDM, CRMX
wireless and sACN/ArtNet over ethernet. All this in a completely integrated, water-resistant
package weighing under 75 lbs.
Leveraging our years of experience in solid-state lighting and material sciences, ReFlex uses Cineo-
designed, custom-built LEDs and control electronics deliver the same bright, beautiful color
rendering and extended deep-red spectrum as our Remote Phosphor fixtures.
ReFlex continues our high standard of durability through quality manufacturing, designed for field
service and backed by a 2-year warranty.

Features
125,000 Lumen digital hard light
Utilizing 54 high-density CSP arrays, the ReFlex Radial Light Engine consists of 9 concentric light
sources around its liquid cooled core.
Comprehensive control options
Local control is managed through an intuitive touchscreen on the back of the fixture. For remote
operation, ReFlex supports all existing control protocols including DMX/RDM, wireless CRMX,
Ethernet and WiFi. Fixture settings, user libraries and software updates utilize the unit’s built-in
USB port.
Electronically variable, 15°-75° spot/flood beam control
The ReFlex light engine technology permits the beam angle to be controlled continuously from
15° to 75° electronically, both locally and remotely, with no moving parts.
Uniform Field Lighting Area
Due to the way the light engine is controlled, the exposure level across the selected beam angle is
perfectly uniform: no hot spots or dark areas. Color variances within the beam due to Color-over-
Angle (COA) can be compensated by adjusting the CCT of the beam as the beam angle changes.
User-controlled beam shaping
If a more customized beam shape is needed, individual controls of all 9 lighting sources (both
intensity and CCT) are available both locally and remotely.
2700K to 6500K hybrid output
ReFlex can do the work of both HMI and incandescent hard lights without bulb replacement for
the life of the fixture.
100% to 0% dimming – zero flicker, zero color shift
Like all Cineo Lighting fixtures, dimming is controlled over the full range from zero to full output,
at all CCTs with no color shift and no flicker at frame rates up to 10,000fps.
110/220v household circuit operation
At full power, ReFlex requires less than 1500 watts, making it a simpler solution for remote setups
where auxiliary power is impractical.
Interchangeable reflector and light shaping accessories
The hard reflector is easily removable, creating a 180º Lambertian light source. Soft accessories
turn ReFlex into a high-powered soft lighting source with controllable shape.
Total weight: 73lbs.
ReFlex is completely self-contained: no ballasts or external power supplies. The unique cooling
system and compact electronics of ReFlex make for a total weight manageable by one person.
Weatherproof
ReFlex’s sealed electronics and cooling systems provide for safe use in wet locations without
additional protection.
70,000 hour (L70) life span
The extremely robust proprietary arrays used in ReFlex deliver uncompromised output for the
long life of the fixture.
