1. Optical Performance & Light Engine

The heart of the unit is a high-density LED engine designed for long-throw applications.
Light Source: 500 Watt White LED module.
Color Temperature: 7000K (Daylight cool).
Luminous Flux: Estimated ~25,000–30,000 lumens (varying by zoom angle).

Beam/Spot/Wash Modes:
Beam: 3° for sharp, narrow aerial effects.
Spot: Mid-range zoom for crisp gobo projection.
Wash: Up to 45° with the integrated frost filter for wide stage coverage.

Front Lens: Large-diameter antireflective lens for a uniform beam field.

2. Physical & Environmental Construction

Designed specifically for the rigors of touring and outdoor use:
Housing: Magnesium alloy. This is why it weighs only 28kg.
Protection Rating: IP65 (Dust-tight and protected against water jets from any angle).
Cooling System: Intelligent temperature-controlled fan system with a "Silent Mode" for theater applications.
Pan/Tilt: 540° Pan and 270° Tilt with 16-bit resolution and automatic repositioning if the head is knocked out of place.

3. Comprehensive Effect Suite

Color System: Linear CMY: Infinite color mixing.
Linear CTO: Color temperature correction (7000K down to 3200K).
Fixed Wheel: 12 dichroic colors + open.

Gobos:
Rotating Wheel: 7 interchangeable glass gobos (bi-directional rotation, indexing, and shake).
Static Wheel: 12 fixed metal gobos for beam shaping and break-ups.

Prisms: 
4-facet Circular. Linear Prism.

Note: These can often be overlaid to create complex, multi-layered patterns.
Animation Wheel: A dedicated dynamic disk for fire, water, or cloud effects.

4. Control & Electronics

Protocol: DMX-512, RDM (Remote Device Management), and Wireless DMX (built-in receiver).
DMX Channels: Typically operates in 3 modes (Standard, Basic, Extended), likely ranging from 24 to 34 channels.
