The ARRI L1.36500.A Arrilite 2000 Plus is a high-performance open-face tungsten lighting fixture, renowned for its exceptional versatility, robust construction, and consistent light quality in professional film and television production. This fixture utilizes a powerful 2000-watt tungsten halogen lamp to produce a bright, hard light that is easily modified and controlled. Unlike a fresnel, the open-face design employs a highly efficient parabolic reflector behind the lamp to project a wide, even flood of light, which can be precisely focused through a manual adjustment mechanism to achieve a variable beam angle. This allows the operator to seamlessly transition from a broad, soft wash for filling large areas to a more concentrated, punchy spot for key lighting or highlighting specific set elements, all without the color temperature shift associated with dimming.

Designed for durability and operator convenience, the Arrilite 2000 Plus is built with a heavy-duty aluminum housing that effectively dissipates heat, protecting both the lamp and the fixture during extended use. It incorporates a four-leaf barn door system with 360-degree rotating hinges for superior spill light control and shaping. The fixture is engineered for flexible mounting, featuring a robust yoke with a standard 5/8-inch junior pin for secure attachment to stands, grids, or wall mounts, and includes a safety chain for added security. Its thoughtful design extends to details like a cool-touch handle for safe repositioning while hot and a large, easy-to-grip focus knob that provides smooth and precise beam adjustment.

The Arrilite 2000 Plus is celebrated for its reliability and its pure, continuous spectrum with a color temperature of 3200K, delivering perfect color rendering (CRI 100) that is essential for accurate skin tones and set reproduction. It is a fundamental tool in a cinematographer's arsenal, valued for its straightforward operation, consistent output, and compatibility with the vast ecosystem of professional lighting modifiers, including scrims, diffusion frames, and gels. While requiring significant power and generating substantial heat, its unparalleled light quality and mechanical precision make it a timeless and indispensable choice for studios and location shoots where absolute control and fidelity are non-negotiable.
