210 RUnnInG on DC soURCes
Silk 210 is designed to run on any voltage between 13V – 36VDC.
For optimal performance run Silk 210 on an AC transformer.
A second option is to run it on 24 V DC source, either with a block battery or with the Silk Double V–lock adaptor
(BB-VLO-2X) or Double AB adaptor (BB-AB-2X).
The third option is to run on one 12V battery using the V-lock or Anton/Bauer adaptor plate (BB-SIL-VLOCP
or BB-SIL-ABCP). In this situation, it is advised to use the highest capacity battery available. High capacity and
heavy duty V-locks and Anton/Bauer batteries are available and High Draw versions are available from some
manufacturers such as Hawk-Woods.
At full output, Silk 210 can pull up to 9A as the battery voltage reduces, therefore it is advised to select a battery
that is suitably rated.
Hawk-Woods and other manufacturers now offer a range of batteries that are designed for high current draw, up
to 15A, ideal for use with Silk fixtures. A battery used on Silk 210 must have a current rating of >9A to cope with
current draw at lower voltages to ensure it doesn’t cut out early and reduce running time.
There are a range of variables that effect battery life such as: capacity, age, number of duty cycles, quality, and
ambient temperature.
Silk firmware has been designed to maintain light output and protect the driver electronics as supply voltage
drops.
