A sharply defined, flat and uniform beam that operates rapidly in every movement provides intense mid-air beam effects through a high power white LED light source and a colour wheel as well as a gobo wheel. The results are high contrast levels and an extreme brightness. Adding to its uniqueness, this moving head is not only IP65-rated and maintenance-free, but also offers the choice of being either battery-driven with an impressive 10-12 hours operation in typical use or being connected wired mains power.
It provides an output of 61,910 lux at a 3m distance and a colour temperature of 6,500K on pure white light. The G-1 is equipped with a 2.8? fixed beam angle; however, it can deliver an aperture zoom adjustable down to 0.3?. Its motorized focus is both fast and precise.
Using USITT standard DMX512, the G-1 can be controlled via wireless DMX or via cabling.
The G-1 comes in two varieties: with or without the base unit. With the base, usability is diverse as a battery can be inserted and thus positioning is independent from any power source proximity, and the IP rating ensures no need of bulky domes for outdoor application. Without the base, the G-1 can be mounted onto the ceiling or a rig in e.g. a club environment for that powerful and bright beam effect that operates in high speed movements using an external power supply.
