What is the Ice Light 2?

The Ice Light 2 is the newest member of the Westcott Ice Light line. The Ice Light 2 is engineered with a patented new LED technology offering a 50% brighter output than the original model. The Ice Light 2 offers 1,740 lumens of beautiful 5500K daylight-balanced light output with a 96 CRI. The portable Ice Light 2 is now conveniently controllable with this brand new Westcott iOS app.

Gain Control from Over 100 Feet

With the Westcott app, users have the ability to control multiple Ice Light 2s from over 100 feet away**. Gone are the days of having to control the brightness of the Ice Light 2 directly from the onboard control panel. Whether the Ice Light 2 is located on a light stand across the room or affixed to a boom arm above your subject, this app provides complete control of the light output from your compatible iOS device.

Easily Connect Up to 10 Ice Light 2s

The Westcott app offers users the ability to pair and control up to 10 Ice Light 2 units remotely from the app’s user-friendly interface. A simple carousel design allows users to easily scroll-through all connected units to select the individual Ice Light 2 they would like to control.

Accurately Control Brightness

The Westcott app Interface utilizes a simple slider that allows complete control of the Ice Light 2 brightness. The brightness settings can be adjusted over 18 settings: Low, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0, 9.5, & High.

Name Customization

The Westcott app gives users the ability to apply custom names to each connected Ice Light 2. Simply pair each Ice Light 2 with the app, select the Ice Light 2 that you would like to rename from the carousel, and press-and-hold on the name label above the carousel to change the name. The customized name will remain synced to the Ice Light 2 even after the two devices have been turned off. Connecting the Ice Light 2 to another iOS device will require the user to rename the light again.

Remotely Check the Status of the Ice Light 2 Battery

The Westcott app offers users the ability to check the status of the built-in, user-changeable Li-ion battery right from their iOS device. The indicator located at the bottom of the app’s interface provides real-time status updates throughout shoots. The battery indicator will display the status of the battery via five colored blocks; Red, Yellow, Yellow, Green, Green.

Easily Share Ice Light 2 Units with Others

Disconnecting a connected Ice Light 2 is simple. Simply slide the power switch on the Ice Light 2 to the OFF position. Ice Light 2s may also disconnect from the app when they move out of range of the application. Reconnection is simple. Position the Ice Light 2 within range of the application, tap the refresh button in the top right corner, and the unit will be added to the carousel.

**Various factors may interrupt the connection of an Ice Light 2 to the control app. Structures, materials, and other surroundings could affect the performance and connection.
