Product Overview
The lightmaXX CLS Nano RGBW is an LED lighting system featuring four spotlights, designed for use on theater and stage productions. Its compact size and low weight also make it suitable for mobile applications.
Each spotlight is equipped with three powerful 4W QCL LEDs, contributing to a total power consumption of 48 watts. The COB LEDs incorporate red, green, blue, and white primary colors, allowing for the creation of a wide spectrum of other colors through mixing. The beam angle is 25 degrees. Additionally, the QCL LEDs offer stepless dimming from 0-100% and can produce a powerful strobe effect. Control options include DMX and music control.
