The Astera Helios Tube Rental is a compact, professional battery powered lighting solution designed for productions that require
fast deployment, cable-free placement, and precise color control. Helios Tube delivers the same color matching and workflow benefits as Astera’s Titan Tube in a
shorter format, making it easier to mount in tight locations and transport between setups. It is well-suited for events, film production, broadcast, corporate staging,
and architectural lighting applications where portability and clean installs matter.

Helios Tube provides 24W RGBMA output with 8 individually controllable pixels for smooth gradients, pixel effects, and accurate color mixing.
Colors and brightness are calibrated to match Titan Tubes, enabling consistent output when combining fixtures across a single design. Control options include
wired DMX, wireless DMX via CRMX, and app-based wireless control, giving designers multiple ways to integrate Helios Tube into
modern lighting workflows.

As a battery powered light rental, Helios Tube is optimized for reliable runtimes. The built-in rechargeable battery supports Astera’s
Seamless Runtime feature, allowing you to select a target duration so fixtures maintain consistent output for the entire show. When outputting bright white at
maximum intensity, Helios Tube can run up to 1 hour and 45 minutes, and longer runtimes are achieved by intelligently limiting output to meet the selected
time requirement. This helps prevent unexpected battery drop during live events.

Helios Tube includes production-ready features such as IP65 weather resistance for indoor/outdoor use, built-in effects for quickly creating
programs and scenes, and TalkBack+ for fixture discovery, status monitoring, and configuration of DMX addresses and profiles. Security and safety options
include Anti-Theft alarms and an Emergency Light mode that can automatically switch to bright white output during power loss to help illuminate
the venue.

For programming and control, pair Helios Tubes with our GrandMA3 Full-Size Lighting Console rental for professional show control, cueing, and integration with DMX/CRMX workflows.
