Kaiser Baas KBA13048 X-Beam Waterproof Action Camera Light
The Kaiser Baas KBA13048 X-Beam adds continuous LED illumination to action-camera setups for filming in darker environments. Its maximum output of 1000 lumens provides additional light for nearby subjects, while selectable lighting modes help adapt illumination to the scene.
Designed for the Kaiser Baas X-Series action-camera range, the X-Beam includes mounting accessories for positioning the light alongside a compatible camera. A removable rechargeable lithium-ion battery powers the light independently of the camera.
Key Features
- Up to 1000 lumens of LED output.
- Three lighting modes: Wide, Ambient and Target.
- High and Low brightness settings for each mode.
- Removable rechargeable battery.
- Micro-USB charging.
- Included dual mount and quick-release mounting accessories.
- Waterproof design for use within the manufacturer's stated limits.
Selectable Lighting
Choose Wide, Ambient or Target mode using the top-mounted control button. Each mode offers two brightness settings, allowing a choice between greater output and longer battery operation.
Independent Battery Power
The light operates from its own battery rather than drawing power from the camera. Recharge using the supplied Micro-USB cable and a suitable USB power source.
Action-Camera Mounting
Use the included dual mount to assemble a compatible camera-and-light setup. The manufacturer also documents use with Kaiser Baas and GoPro-style mounts. Check housing, mounting clearance and fastener engagement before use.
Underwater Use
The manufacturer manual specifies waterproof protection to 40 m with an IP68 rating. The housing must be correctly closed and its seal clean and undamaged. The camera and every other part of the setup must have their own suitable water-depth rating.
Ideal Applications
- Supplemental lighting for action-camera video.
- Underwater filming within the limits of the complete camera setup.
- Low-light outdoor recording.
- Close-range subject illumination using compatible mounts.
Compatible Products
Kaiser Baas identifies the X-Beam as compatible with its X-Series action-camera range. Compatibility is mechanical: the camera must be installed in a suitable housing or mounting adapter that works with the included dual mount.
- Kaiser Baas X250 KBA12052 Action Camera – use the compatible action-camera mounting interface on the camera housing. Flytec lists a 30 m waterproof housing limit.
- Kaiser Baas X450 KBA12067 Action Camera – use the compatible housing-mounted interface and the X-Beam dual mount. Flytec documents Kaiser Baas accessory and GoPro-style mount compatibility when the camera is inside its case.
Important: The light's 40 m waterproof rating does not increase the camera's rating. Follow the lowest depth limit in the assembled system. Mount compatibility does not imply shared batteries, electrical power transfer, remote control or automatic camera synchronization.
