FlatMaster 150L

FlatMaster 150L from Pegasus Astro

The FlatMaster 150L from Pegasus Astro is an electroluminescent light panel designed to produce a uniform light source, essential for astrophotography and photometry. It generates high-quality flat-field images, reducing optical defects and brightness variations in captures.

Technical specifications

• Type LED light panel (white).
• Gradation Brightness adjustable from 0 to 100 %.
• Useful diameter 150 mm (5.9"), ideal for telescopes up to 6" aperture.
• Material Sturdy black ABS plastic.
• Dimensions Total diameter 250 mm, thickness 8 mm.
• Weight : 350 g.
• Power supply DC 5 V via mini USB cable (maximum current 500 mA).
• Manual button : Gradual adjustment of brightness by means of a small integrated push-button.

Key features

• Variable-intensity panel Allows precise control of brightness, eliminating the need to use foils or other accessories to adjust light intensity. Can reach very high brightness levels, suitable for short exposures (2-3 seconds at f/7) with narrow-band filters (3 nm).
• Remote control and settings memory Compatible with software such as Sequence Generator Pro (SGPro), N.I.N.A., Astrophotography Tool (APT) and Voyager. Possibility of memorizing brightness levels for each filter used, offering rapid parameter retrieval.
• Simplified connectivity : Operates with a single USB cable (Type B), powering and controlling the panel simultaneously. Native support for ASCOM and INDI platforms, ensuring easy integration with most astrophotography software.
• Portability and robustness Includes a carry bag for easy transport and protection. Durable design thanks to the use of resistant materials.

Box Contents

• 1 x FlatMaster 150L.
• 1 x Carrying bag.
• 1 x USB2 Type B cable (1.8 m).

Applications

The FlatMaster 150L is ideal for :

• The creation of flat-field images in astrophotography to correct vignetting and dust on the sensor.
• Users working with telescopes up to 6" aperture.
• Configurations requiring uniform, controlled lighting for accurate photometric results.

Summary

In short, the FlatMaster 150L is a compact, high-performance, easy-to-use solution for producing uniform flat fields images, meeting the needs of both amateur and professional astrophotographers.
