The Ayrton Mamba is a groundbreaking 500W laser source moving head beam that delivers unparalleled performance and versatility in a sleek, compact form factor. Building on the success of the Cobra series, the Mamba elevates the standard with a laser source twice as powerful, producing a stunning array of psychedelic effects that push the boundaries of lighting design. Equipped with 18 dedicated motors for effect creation, Mamba offers unprecedented graphic capabilities, featuring 92 fixed and rotating metal gobos across two wheels. This extensive gobo selection, paired with an endlessly rotating ovoid animation wheel, creates dynamic and intricate effects that captivate and immerse audiences. Designed to perform in any environment, Mamba is capable of operating flawlessly both indoors and outdoors, even in harsh saline conditions, with an IP65 rating ensuring total protection against dust and water.
The Mamba is equipped with a 250mm front lens and a proprietary 13-lens optical system that delivers a remarkable 21x zoom range, with an aperture from 0.7° to 15°. This motorized linear zoom enables users to achieve an ultra-sharp beam definition with exceptional contrast, making Mamba an ideal tool for both large-scale performances and intimate settings. Its laser source provides a bright 9000K output, ensuring crisp, high-quality light that is speckle-free, perfect for television and video applications. In addition to its incredible graphic and beam effects, the Mamba features a sophisticated color mixing system, including a high-definition gradient CMY mixing system and a multi-position color wheel. This combination allows for the creation of a broad spectrum of hues, from vibrant saturated colors to subtle pastel tones, offering the flexibility to meet the creative demands of any lighting designer.
For additional creative flexibility, Mamba offers two sets of four combinable rotating and indexable prisms, along with a monochromatic animation effects wheel that can rotate continuously in both directions. These prisms, combined with two frost filters, enable the creation of complex volumetric effects and soft diffusion, perfect for producing a range of moods and atmospheres. The fixture also features precise shutter blades with 100% surface coverage and a rapid 15-blade iris for beam optimization, making it suitable for both wide wash effects and sharp beam projections. With its advanced cooling system, low weight of just 41 kg, and built-in sun protection and heating systems for extreme temperature operation, the Mamba is truly a versatile and reliable fixture for any lighting designer seeking to elevate their creative output.
