Included are four lightweight panels and various modifiers including four diffusers, eggcrates, and gel holders. The HydraPanel can be mounted via its included FlexBase accessory, Baby pin, or rear magnet. It has a built-in battery, so you can use it on location. The panels come with a power supply for Hyperion tube lights, three 200mm power and data combination cables, and a convenient charging case for storage and transportation. With the included connector plates, the four panels can be combined for synchronized control.
The HydraPanel includes a wide range of light modifiers that can be easily clipped to the surface of the panel via four magnets.
