The LiteMat Plus 8 is the largest fixture in the LiteMat Plus range, built as a large-format soft source in a very slim, lightweight form. It uses 4,608 colour-correct LEDs across a 40 in x 40 in emitting surface (roughly 1 m x 1 m), with a quoted power draw of 400 W. At just 0.9 in (23 mm) thick and 10.4 lb (4.7 kg) including the cable, it’s well suited to fast-moving film, broadcast and corporate content shoots where you need a big, tidy key or fill without a bulky modifier.
Colour performance is designed for camera work. The bi-colour range is specified at 2600 K to 6000 K, with CRI and TLCI quoted at 95+ depending on the setting. Output is strong for its footprint, with published photometrics around 8,550 lux at 1 m at 6000 K (measured without diffusion), making it a practical option for interviews, small group keys, and broad fill, subject to distance and your chosen diffusion.
The panel is bordered with a hook-and-loop edge, making it quick to add and swap light control accessories. For day-to-day shooting, it’s the kind of unit that can handle a soft toplight over tables, a clean key for seated interviews, or a large window-side fill, while keeping the rig compact and easy to position.
Hire packages vary by configuration, but the LiteMat Plus 8 is commonly supplied with a suitable power and control unit, diffusion options, a skirt for spill control, mounting hardware, and the required connection cables in a protective bag or case. If you need a large, colour-accurate soft source that rigs quickly and integrates cleanly into a professional lighting workflow, the LiteMat Plus 8 is a strong choice for film, drama and branded content.
