DJI Zenmuse S1 Spotlight — Powerful Aerial Lighting for Night Operations
The DJI Zenmuse S1 is a high-intensity LEP (Laser-Excited Phosphor) spotlight designed for
DJI Matrice 400, Matrice 350 RTK and Matrice 300 RTK platforms. Built for
Fire & Rescue, policing, search and rescue, and utility inspections, the S1 delivers a tight, long-range beam,
rapid strobe for scene safety, and precise gimbal synchronised control so illumination always follows your camera framing.
With rugged construction and IP54 protection, it performs reliably in demanding environments.
- Bright, focused beam: LEP technology concentrates light for long range visibility and minimal spill.
- Operational flexibility: switch between narrow/long beam modes and enable strobe for emergency signalling.
- Gimbal sync: light automatically aligns with your gimballed payload (e.g., H30/H30T) for accurate target illumination.
- Mission-ready design: compact, efficient power draw and weather resistant build for nightly deployments.
- Ideal use cases: missing person searches, scene assessment, shoreline and cliff rescue, traffic incident control, and asset inspection after dark.




Why choose Zenmuse S1?
Compared with conventional LED pods, the S1’s LEP module concentrates light more efficiently, delivering clean, far reaching illumination
that cuts through smoke, haze and coastal mist. Paired with DJI enterprise drones, it helps crews work faster, safer and with better situational awareness.

DJI Zenmuse S1 — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the DJI Zenmuse S1?›
The DJI Zenmuse S1 is a high-performance spotlight designed for enterprise drones. Using advanced LEP technology, it delivers powerful, focused illumination for night operations, search and rescue, and inspection work.
Which drones is the S1 compatible with?›
The Zenmuse S1 is compatible with the DJI Matrice 300 RTK, Matrice 350 RTK, and other aircraft that support DJI’s Enterprise gimbal mount, including configurations with dual downward or upward payloads.
How bright is the Zenmuse S1?›
The S1 produces up to around 35 lux at 100 metres in combined mode, capable of lighting areas up to approximately 500 metres away in optimal conditions. It offers multiple beam modes for both wide and narrow illumination.
What beam modes does it support?›
The S1 features four modes: Low Beam for wide coverage, High Beam for long-range focus, Both On for maximum illumination, and a Strobe Mode for signalling and safety applications.
How much power does it use?›
Power consumption varies with mode, averaging around 68 W in full output and under 20 W in single-beam modes, ensuring balanced performance with minimal impact on flight time.
What is the weight and size of the S1?›
The payload weighs approximately 760 grams and measures about 125 × 152 × 171 mm, allowing easy transport and mounting on compatible enterprise drones.
Does the S1 have weather protection?›
Yes. The S1 is rated to IP54 for dust and splash resistance, making it suitable for use in light rain or humid environments when flown according to operational guidelines.
Can it be used safely near people?›
The S1 includes built-in safety features such as automatic dimming when on the ground and surface temperature control to prevent overheating during extended use.
Does the S1 synchronise with cameras or gimbals?›
Yes. The Zenmuse S1 can be linked with compatible camera payloads, such as the Zenmuse H30 or H30T, to align illumination with the camera’s field of view during inspection or night surveillance tasks.
What are the main applications for the Zenmuse S1?›
The S1 is ideal for search and rescue, law enforcement, infrastructure inspection, security patrols, and any operation requiring precision lighting in low-light or nighttime conditions.
How does it affect drone flight performance?›
The lightweight design and efficient power draw minimise impact on flight time. The S1 is engineered to maintain excellent balance and stability when used with dual or single payload setups.
