Portman Lights P2 EVO RGBW LED Linear Accent Light

With six vertically arranged attractive light cells, the Portman P2 EVO RGBW LED Linear Accent Light is sure to create an eye-catching stream of light on stages and in studios, with a similar form factor to its Hexaline tungsten equivalent. Each cell uses advanced warm white LEDs, which are supplemented by RGBW LEDs to add a soft color-variable glow. It can link to multiple units to pass through both power and DMX control signals.

A six-section linear configuration of LED sources gives the P2 EVO a near-identical look to its tungsten counterpart. The color capabilities of the LED cells are veritably modern, yet the tubular 60W light sources contained within mimic warm-white halogen bulbs for a recognizably retro appearance. While these sources are adjustable only within a 1600-3200K tungsten color temperature range, they are backed up by a dynamic display of full-color spectrum light. This effect is achieved by 12W LEDs hidden behind the tungsten-type bulbs to provide consistent glows of a wide range of hues. Their red/green/blue/white configuration ensures a consistent rendition of cover across the entirety of their dimming range. The light bends on two adjustment points along its center column, allowing the P2 EVO to flex into curved positions. The included mounting adapters allow the light to be safely placed on stage or rigged overhead to take full advantage of its design when arranged in an array with other fixtures.

The P2 EVO operates using modern systems familiar to most lighting techs and stage designers. Located on the rear of the unit is a convenient OLED display with four tactile buttons for navigating menus to set color, intensity, and other parameters to fit the needs of the production. As the p1 EVO is equipped with the Portman Color Feedback System, the buttons are backlit by RGB LEDs and will indicate a variety of current settings for hands-free monitoring of the light. When operating the fixture at a distance is preferable, a 5-pin XLR input is available for controlling these same settings as well as programmed macros using one's DMX control surfaces; a DMX output also allows for daisy-chaining up to 32 units at once. With the purchase of an optional wireless module, the P2 may also be operated via WDMX.
