Direct answerMatch the wattage to the venue: 1W to 6W for bars and KTV rooms, 10W to 20W for indoor stages, 30W to 60W for outdoor festivals, and 120W to 300W for landmark shows and large-scale productions.
Wattage Selection by Venue
| Venue or application | Recommended wattage | Protection |
|---|---|---|
| Bars, KTV rooms, nightclubs, small parties | 1W - 6W | IP54 |
| Indoor stages, medium venues, touring shows | 10W - 20W | IP54 / IP55 |
| Outdoor music festivals, large venues | 30W - 60W | IP65 |
| Outdoor concerts, landmark shows, large productions | 120W - 300W | IP65 |
Checks Before You Order
- Confirm the control modes you need: ILDA, DMX512, Sound Active, Auto, APP or Master-slave
- For outdoor use, select IP65 models with waterproof potting and salt spray testing
- Check beam throw distance and scanning angle at your actual mounting height
- Decide whether one unit or several synchronized units will cover the venue
DarkTone manufactures the full range from 1W mini animation lasers to 300W waterproof RGB systems, so the wattage can be matched precisely to the venue.
