The Mega-Lite MW1 is a powerful and versatile 7 x 40W RGBW LED moving head wash fixture that is part of the innovative M-Series. Designed for a wide range of applications, from churches and theaters to mobile DJs and clubs, the MW1 combines high-performance features with a compact, lightweight design. Equipped with seven 40W RGBW OSRAM LEDs, the MW1 delivers bright, vibrant color mixing and even light output, making it perfect for creating eye-catching, multi-colored lighting effects. Whether used for projecting sharp beams or soft-edge washes, the MW1 offers exceptional flexibility and control.
With a zoom range of 9 to 44 degrees, the MW1 is capable of delivering both narrow, sharp beams and wide, smooth wash effects. The narrow 9-degree beam angle is ideal for creating tight, focused lighting effects that can cut through dense atmospheres, while the wide 44-degree wash angle is perfect for illuminating larger areas with a soft, even light. The fixture's optical system ensures that the light output remains consistent across the entire zoom range, making it a versatile tool for lighting designers who need to adapt to different environments and performance needs.
One of the standout features of the MW1 is its individual pixel control, which allows each of the seven 40W LEDs to be controlled separately. This enables users to create dynamic pixel-mapped lighting effects, such as chase patterns, color gradients, and other complex designs that add depth and visual interest to the lighting setup. The MW1's RGBW color mixing ensures a broad spectrum of vibrant colors, from deep saturated hues to pastel shades, while the CTO channel allows for the creation of true whites and accurate skin tones, making it an excellent choice for highlighting performers on stage.
The MW1 is equipped with high-performance stepper motors that provide smooth, precise movement. It features a 540-degree pan and a 270-degree tilt, both controlled with 8/16-bit resolution for fine-tuned positioning. The fixture can complete a full pan rotation in just a few seconds, making it ideal for both fast, dynamic movements and slower, more deliberate repositioning during live performances. The pan and tilt lock feature ensures that the fixture remains secure during transport and installation, providing peace of mind for lighting professionals working in demanding environments.
In terms of control, the MW1 operates using DMX 512 protocol, with a 39-channel mode that offers comprehensive control over all of the fixture's functions. The fixture features an easy-to-use LCD display, allowing users to quickly access and adjust settings. The electronic shutter adds to the MW1's versatility, offering a strobe effect with up to 18 flashes per second, perfect for creating high-energy lighting effects in concert or club settings. Additionally, the fixture's powerful 3-phase motors allow for precise speed control of the pan and tilt movements, providing smooth transitions between positions.
The MW1 is built for durability and ease of use, featuring a die-cast aluminum housing and a compact design. With dimensions of 12.75 x 9 x 15.5 inches and a weight of just 19 lbs, the fixture is easy to transport, install, and adjust, making it ideal for both touring productions and permanent installations. The fixture includes two quick-release bi-directional clamp mounts, allowing for fast, secure rigging in a variety of positions. Its auto-switching power supply (100V-240V, 50/60Hz) ensures compatibility with global power standards, while its power consumption of 376 watts makes it an energy-efficient option for venues of all sizes.
The MW1 is equipped with both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX input and output, providing compatibility with a wide range of lighting control systems. The fixture's IP22 rating ensures protection against dust and light moisture, making it suitable for indoor use in controlled environments. Whether you need sharp beams, soft washes, or dynamic pixel-mapped effects, the Mega-Lite MW1 is a versatile and powerful lighting solution that delivers outstanding performance in a compact, user-friendly design.
