Features include adjustable colour temperatures (preset values range from 3,200°K to 10,000°K), the capability to trigger instant colour changes, discreet operation and a casing design focused on stability and ruggedness.
The unit comes fitted with a total of 90 high power LEDs (700mA red; 1,500mA blue, green and white), and 15° lenses. The unit produces an excellent long-throw wash, say Chauvet - 14,780 lux at 2m, with a beam angle of 12° and a field angle of 23°. Optional 10° and 30° lenses can be swapped into the fixture to respectively provide a tighter or wider beam configuration.
Standard functions and features include variable electronic strobe, electronic dimming, remote fixture reset, automatic pan and tilt correction, adjustable fan speed, an LCD display with password protection, and Neutrik Powercon power connectors.
The incorporation of LEDs allows for substantial savings in energy consumption, as well as significant reduction of the unit's weight, compared to lamp-fitted washlights. At less than 20kg (36.4lbs), the Legend 6500 is an attractive, eco-friendlier option for demanding club and touring installations, say Chauvet.
