The Mega-Lite MB1 is an 80W LED moving head beam fixture designed to deliver powerful, precise lighting effects in a compact form factor. Featuring a 0.85-degree beam angle, the MB1 produces a sharp, intense beam of light that can cut through dense atmospheres, making it perfect for concerts, clubs, theaters, and a variety of other lighting applications. With its advanced feature set, including prisms, gobo effects, and smooth motorized movement, the MB1 is an excellent choice for lighting designers looking to create dynamic and visually striking shows.
The MB1 is equipped with an 80W LED that produces a bright, concentrated beam, ideal for long-throw applications or creating dramatic aerial effects. The unit features two prisms-a 6-facet linear prism and an 8-facet circular prism-that can be used to multiply the beam into stunning patterns, adding depth and complexity to the lighting design. The prisms can be layered and rotated to create dazzling overlay effects, making the MB1 an essential tool for creating high-impact visual effects in any environment.
In addition to its powerful beam and prism effects, the MB1 offers a wide range of color and gobo options. The fixture comes with 13 colors plus open, allowing for vibrant color mixing and quick changes between different color schemes. The unit also features 9 fixed gobos, including 2 beam-reducing gobos, which can be used to shape the beam and create intricate projection effects. The mechanical focus ensures that the beam remains sharp and crisp at any distance, and the frost filter provides a softening effect when needed, giving users flexibility in shaping the light to suit the desired look.
The MB1 is designed for fast, smooth movement, thanks to its powerful 3-phase stepper motors. It can complete a full 540-degree pan in just 1.8 seconds and a full 270-degree tilt in 0.9 seconds, allowing for rapid repositioning of the beam during live performances. This fast, responsive movement is complemented by 8/16-bit control for both pan and tilt, ensuring precise and accurate positioning. The fixture also includes a pan/tilt lock, providing additional security during transport and installation.
The MB1 offers a wide range of control options, including DMX 512 protocol with a 39-channel mode, providing detailed control over all of the fixture's features. The onboard LCD display makes it easy to navigate through the settings and customize the effects to match the specific needs of the production. The fixture also includes an electronic strobe with a speed of up to 18 flashes per second, adding dynamic energy to the lighting design.
Built for versatility, the MB1 is equipped with 2 quick-release bi-directional clamp mounts, allowing for easy installation in a variety of positions. The fixture's compact dimensions (11.88 x 9 x 18.5 inches) and weight (24 lbs) make it easy to handle and transport, making it ideal for touring productions or venues where space is limited. The MB1 operates on an auto-switching power supply that supports voltages from 100V to 240V at 50/60Hz, ensuring compatibility with global power standards. It includes both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for DMX input and output, providing flexibility in connecting to various lighting control systems.
The Mega-Lite MB1 is a high-performance moving head beam fixture that delivers powerful, concentrated lighting effects with a range of creative options. Whether used for concerts, theatrical performances, or architectural lighting, the MB1 offers the precision, speed, and flexibility needed to create stunning visual displays.
