Fixture Assembly
The Mega Double and Single xtures are comprised of two removable Louvers,
a Reector and a Lamp Harness. The Louvers and Reector are held in place with
Velcro fasteners. The Lamp Harness is secured by means of a ¼ turn fastener and
two clips.
Note: The 8ft xtures include two 4ft louvers; the 6ft xtures include two 3ft louvers.
To Release the Lamp Harness
Remove the harness from 2 clips located under the reector. Rotate the ¼ turn
fastener clockwise to release harness.
The Mega Double Harness wiring is color-coded. The same color-code must match at
each end of the lamp for proper operation.
The lamps can operate independent of the xture allowing them to
be built into sets or custom soft boxes or hand-held as a single tube
for an eye-light.
WARNING: Always use safety-coated lamps to avoid injury if lamp
breaks.

Inserting Lamps
Gelling the Fixture
Locking Lamp Connector:
Depress both tabs on lamp connector and apply to lamp pins. Match the Harness
color-codes at each end of the lamp. Push lamps into the xture’s Lamp Holder Clips.
Note: Mega 4Bank xture is shown for example purposes only.
Restricting the airow around the lamps can cause the lamps to operate hotter.
This increased heat will raise the lamp’s color temperature and green spike.
Therefore, it is recommended to clip gels to the doors of the xture.
Remove louvers. Do Not clip gels to louver. Do Not block the xture ends in a
manner that restricts airow.
Mounting the Fixture
Align the four shoulder rivets on the mounting
plate (MTP-KM) to the holes in the mating plate
and slide down. The locking pin will snap into
place when the plate is properly seated.
The Silver Rings provide attachment points for
a safety chain.
To remove the plate, pull up on the locking pin
and reverse the mounting procedure.
A 180° turn loosens the orientation of the mount.
A right turn tightens the mount.
The tension on the lock lever may be adjusted
by pulling the handle away from the mount.
This disengages the handle from the screw
mechanism and allows it to be reoriented.
Note: You can also use a screwdriver to adjust
the travel. Pull back on handle and adjust the
screw in the center of the handle.

Other Fixture Mounting Options
Extension Cable
The grommet holes along
the edge of the xture are
designed to allow the xture
to be screwed onto set walls.
To insert the cable, position the logo up to align
the key ways on the extension cable with the circular
receptacle on the ballast. Rotate the locking ring
until it clicks into the lock position.
Lamps can operate as far as 75 feet from the ballast.
(3 x 25ft extensions)
A Splitter can be used at the Ballast or on the end
of an Extension Cable to split a Mega Double run
into two Mega Singles. This allows for greater rigging
exibility.
A Combiner can connect smaller ballasts to a larger
xture. For example, two Mega Single Ballasts can
be combined to a Mega Double Extension or Fixture.
Ballast Operation
WARNING!
1) ALWAYS TURN OFF THE BALLAST BEFORE connecting or
disconnecting Lamps, Harnesses or Extension Cables.
2) Use only with Sine wave inverters. Do not operate on SCR dimmers.
3) If powering the ballasts through a Dimmer Pack, set the Dimmer to
Non-Dim mode.
The 120VAC Ballast requires 110 to 130 Volts AC 50/60 Hertz on an
earth grounded circuit; the 230VAC Ballast requires 220 to 240 Volts AC
on an earth grounded circuit. The electronic Ballast operates at a
high frequency of 25 kHz. It is dead-quiet, instant-on and lightweight.
The Ballast operates remote from the xture. Connect the Extension
cable to the Ballast and the Lamp Harness. After the lamps are properly
installed, the Ballast can be turned on.
Load Considerations
Kino Flo Mega ballasts are not power factor corrected. They will draw
double the current on the neutral from what is being drawn on the
two hot legs. On large installations it may be necessary to double
your neutral run so as not to exceed your cable capacity.
Cold Temperature Operation
The Mega Ballast series is designed to operate at temperatures from
14F to 122F (-10C to +50C). In cold temperatures, the Ballast may
not strike the lamp(s) instantly. Switch the Ballast to OFF, wait seven
seconds and try again. If the Ballast does not strike after two or three
attempts, turn off the Ballast, check that the Extension and Harness
connections are secure and re-strike. Once operating for a few minutes,
the lamps should re-strike instantly.

A) Circular Output Connector: Provides electrical power to the
lamp head with the use of an extension cable.
B) Fuse: Provides circuit protection. Note: If Fuse is “blown” or “open”,
replace with same type of fuse rating as marked.
C) Manual Switches: Turns lamps on and off manually.
D) HO/STD: Set to HO for High Output and Std for Standard light
output.
(Note: The Mega Double ballast is shown for example purposes.)

Manual Operation
The Ballast operates remote from the xture. Connect the Extension cable
to the Ballast and the Lamp Harness. After the lamps are properly installed,
the Ballast can be turned on. Each switch controls one lamp. The color
bands on the lamp harness correspond to the switches as illustrated.
Lamp Select Feature
The Mega Ballasts have an HO/Std switch. Set the selector switch to HO for
High Output and Std for Standard light output.
When operating 8ft or 6ft lamps in high ambient temperature or where the
units are rigged into place with restricted airow, the Std setting can be used
to lower the color temperature and remove any green spike. The light drops
about a half f-stop in exposure when dropping from HO to Std.
