Multiple lens options, coupled with a host of accessories, enhance the fixture's potential even further. An optional Bowens mount adaptor ring allows for a number of Bowens mount accessories to be attached to the front of the fixture for even more aesthetic options and creative impact. Add to that a variety of mounting options and designers are empowered with the flexibility to craft unique visual experiences tailored to each performance or event.

The SŌL I Blinder boasts a remarkable spectrum of colors from a 250W RGB+Lime+Amber+White LED engine with 93+ CRI for high-quality color reproduction. The proprietary RGBLAW engine delivers exceptionally bright, high-fidelity whites while offering a full color range that takes LED blinder color to the next level.

Despite its compact form, the SŌL I packs a punch at over 8000 lumens! Fully variable 16-bit color temperature adjustment from 2400K - 8500K is achievable and a dim to warm or red shift emulation function has been included to allow you to match the warm glow of an incandescent blinder. CMY emulation provides the designer with immediate access to the impressive LED color array including beautiful mixed whites while a virtual gel library allows for easy recall of a variety of premixed shades. A variable strobe (1- 20kHz) and a selection of 16-bit dimming modes and curves are also included.

Fully controllable via DMX/RDM, SŌL I offers a unique 'Array Mode' addressing system and Elation's proprietary Aria x2 wireless device management for simpler system setup and maintenance. Users can also choose between high-output blinder mode or constant output mode when even light level is required for long periods of time.

IP65 rated and convection cooled for reliable use in virtually any environment, the SŌL I is wrapped in a lightweight yet durable compact housing. Unleash your creativity and redefine the limits of live entertainment lighting with SŌL - illuminating the path to limitless creativity!
