The Chauvet Professional Strike Array 2 is a high-performance, IP65-rated audience blinder designed for both indoor and outdoor applications. This powerful fixture is equipped with 96 warm white LEDs (1.33 W each) and 10 amber LEDs (2.64 W each), providing a robust light output with a color temperature of 2700K at full intensity. The fixture is engineered to deliver an exceptional warm glow that closely resembles classic tungsten lighting, making it ideal for various lighting scenarios, including live performances and broadcast settings. With a beam angle of 60.3 degrees and a field angle of 99 degrees, the Strike Array 2 ensures broad coverage and dynamic illumination.
One of the standout features of the Strike Array 2 is its innovative "amber shift" technology, which allows the light to warm as it dims, effectively emulating the behavior of traditional incandescent fixtures. The unit also incorporates variable Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), ensuring flicker-free performance, which is crucial for high-definition camera work. The 16-bit dimming control enables smooth and precise fades, providing flexibility for creating various lighting effects. This blinder is further enhanced by strobe functionality, capable of delivering high-impact bursts of light at rates up to 25 Hz, making it suitable for dramatic moments in any production.
The Strike Array 2 is designed for seamless scalability, featuring a custom interlocking system that allows multiple units to be connected easily without the need for tools. The fixture also includes multiple mounting options with 1/4 turn adapters, allowing for creative rigging possibilities. For user convenience, the blinder is equipped with an easy-to-navigate OLED display, which simplifies configuration and control. Additionally, the fixture supports RDM (Remote Device Management) for enhanced control flexibility, making it an excellent choice for professional lighting applications.
