ADJ Launches the Dotz Series -- A New Era in Wash Lighting

	ADJ Dotz Series COB LEDs - Dotz Bar 1.4, Dotz Panel 2.4, and Dotz Brick 3.3.

ADJ announces the expansion of three new models to its Dotz Series wash lighting with super-charged Chip On Board (COB) LEDs: Dotz Bar 1.4, Dotz Panel 2.4, and Dotz Brick 3.3. All models are designed with color washing capabilities for nightclubs, stages, churches, plus mobile and permanent entertainment applications.

Much more brilliant than traditional surface mount (SMD) LEDs, COB LEDs differ from their predecessors in that multiple LED diodes are mounted directly onto the circuit board as one lighting module. This new technology creates a more powerful LED engine in less space with shorter interconnection lengths, resulting in a super-charged output and more vibrant, dazzling colors.

In addition to its spectacular brightness, the Dotz Series luminaires are amazingly versatile, with the ability to perform as three different types of effects: an RGB color wash, an audience blinder, or a pixel matrix effect. Their tri-color (red, green, blue) LEDs provide extremely smooth color blending with rich, robust palettes. These fixtures also have pixel mapping capabilities for creating eye candy effects.

"We are very excited to offer an expanded range of Dotz COB products to the market," said Alfred Gonzales, national sales manager or ADJ USA. "COB technology has quickly become an important segment in entertainment lighting. We know that lighting designers will be blown away with the brightness, the smooth color washing, and the pixel mapping effects in these three Dotz fixtures."

Dotz Bar 1.4 -- A one-by-four high output linear wash bar with four 9W COB TRI (three-in-one) LEDs. Daisy-chain multiple Dotz Bar 1.4 fixtures with the built-in IEC AC in/out connectors (up to 10 Dotz Bar 1.4s at 120V and 22 Dotz Bar 1.4s at 230V). Individual pixel control may be use in 12- or 17-channel mode. The dimensions are (LxWxH): 13. 5" x 5.75" x 5.75"/ 340 x 140 x 140mm, and the weight is 7lb / 2.8 kg.

Dotz Panel 2.4 -- A two-by-four high output panel with eight 9W COB TRI (three-in-one) LEDs. Daisy-chain multiple Dotz Panel 1.4 fixtures with the built-in IEC AC in/out connectors (up to eight Dotz Pixel 2.4s at 120V and 17 Dotz Pixel 2.4s at 230V). Individual pixel control may be use in 24- or 29-channel mode. The dimensions are (LxWxH): 13.5" x 6.5" x 9"/ 345 x 164 x 227mm, and the weight is 14lb / 6.4 kg. The Dotz Panel 2.4 includes barn doors.

Dotz Brick 3.3 -- A three-by-three high output matrix panel with nine 9W COB TRI (three-in-one) LEDs. Daisy-chain multiple Dotz Brick 3.3 fixtures with the built-in IEC AC in/out connectors (up to seven Dotz Brick 3.3s at 120V and 14 Dotz Brick 3.3s at 230V). Individual pixel control may be use in 27- or 32-channel mode. The dimensions are (LxWxH): 10.25" x 6.75" x 12"/ 259 x 169 x 300mm, and the weight is 11lb / 4.8 kg.

All three of the new Dotz fixtures have four operational modes (auto run, sound active, built-in programs, DMX), five DMX channel modes, five selectable dim curves (standard, stage, TV architectural and theatre), are flicker free (no flickering on camera), and have a 25-degree beam angle.

The Dotz Par, Panel and Brick have pixel flipping options that change the pixel orientation, have pulse and strobe effect, and have smooth electronic dimming (0-100%). Each fixture is RDM compliant (Remote Devise Management), has a four-button digital DMX display and auto-sensing power supplies (AC: 100V60Hz - 240V/50Hz).

And, thanks to LED technology, all three models have a very low power draw for the type of output these fixtures offer. The Dotz Bar 1.4 power draw is 48W max, Dotz Panel 2.4 is 106W max, and Dotz Brick 3.3 is 116W max (all LED's at full).
