Martin VDO Sceptron 40 LED Video Batten 1000 mm Long

Martin VDO Sceptron 40 LED Video Batten 1000 mm

The VDO Sceptron 40 is a compact linear LED video fixture engineered for studio and production lighting applications, delivering bright, calibrated output in a slim profile that integrates seamlessly into multi-camera setups and live-streaming rigs. Its 1000 mm length and field-exchangeable optical accessories make it adaptable across diverse lighting designs, while integrated power and data cabling eliminates cable clutter by allowing the power supply to sit backstage or in a control room up to 50 meters away.

Optical Performance & Control

Calibrated to 62 cd per meter and 187 lumens per meter, this fixture delivers consistent brightness across its 1 × 25 LED array at 6500K CCT for accurate color reproduction on camera. Dual refresh rates—1001 Hz standard and 4004 Hz high refresh mode—ensure flicker-free performance on camera sensors and live projection systems. Control via the Martin P3 System Controller family provides intuitive video mapping, pixel-level effects, and full DMX backward compatibility for flexible integration into any control setup or existing lighting infrastructure.

Build & Thermal Management

Constructed from extruded aluminum with matte black finish and rated IP65 for robust studio and outdoor use, the fixture weighs just 1.4 kg with standard front diffuser and draws a maximum 7.5W at full intensity. Low thermal output of 30 BTU/hr makes rigging, positioning, and heat management straightforward in compact studio setups and tight installation spaces.
