• A lightweight (under 1.5 kilos in water), high efficiency (85% +) lighting system with 200w HMI performance and versatile mounting applications. 
• Has the ability to vary the output for different lighting requirements.
• An ultra lightweight, inexpensive 200W metal halide lamp with variable output in 20 watt increments from 100 watts to full power.

Nuytco Research Limited's NEWTLITE 200W is equipped standard with a 200W HMI osram hot-restrikable lamp.  The HMI lamp delivers abundant light at 5600 degrees K for maximum color resolution.  To minimize the weight of the system and support versatile mounting arrangements, the ballast system has been integrated into the light head. The NEWTLITE uses a combination electronic ballast and light head. This combination is lightweight and eliminates the multiple failure points associated with the extra cabling and bulkheads required for remotely ballasted systems. The NEWTLITE 200W supports HMI, HID, MSR, and CDM bulbs.  The ballast also has the ability to be hot trimmed down as low as 100W.   The NEWTLITE boasts 85% efficiency and is capable of operating from a 120 or 240 VAC, 250 VDC, or 12/24 VDC with suitable inverter.

The ability to move easily between different bulbs and voltage requirements allows the user to customize the lighting systems specification to suit their requirements. Whether the job requires the color resolution of the HMI or the long burn time economy of the CDM, the NEWTLITE can provide it all.

National Geographic Society’s U/W Filming division was one of the first groups to apply the NEWTLITE. They ordered multiple units for initial use with their “Sustainable Seas Expedition”. Feedback from field technicians and photographers has been outstanding.

Although initially developed for Autonomous submersibles, the current high level of interest in the NEWTLITE is coming primarily from the military and commercial ROV sector.
