Product Overview
The 260W 10R Sharpy Moving Head Light DJ sets the standard for high-intensity beam lighting in dynamic entertainment environments. Powered by a premium 260W 10R platinum metal halide bulb, this fixture delivers an incredibly focused, laser-like beam that cuts through smoke and ambient light with exceptional clarity. Unlike traditional moving heads, its breakthrough optical design produces an almost parallel beam with sharp edges and no halo effect, creating stunning aerial effects and precise beam patterns. With a compact footprint (19 kgs) and lightning-fast movement capabilities, it's the ultimate tool for DJs, clubs, and event producers who demand dramatic, attention-grabbing lighting. The fixture combines raw power with refined control, offering 14 color options, 17 gobos, and dynamic effects that synchronize perfectly with music and performances.
Product Features
Laser-Sharp Optical Performance
At the heart of this fixture's distinctive output is its advanced optical system, which produces an ultra-narrow 3.8° beam angle with exceptional intensity—measuring 59,760 lux at 20 meters for long-throw applications. The precision 3-lens system creates a perfectly parallel beam that maintains its shape over distance, unlike conventional moving heads that disperse significantly. This laser-like quality allows for precise beam positioning and the creation of sharp mid-air effects that remain defined even in large venues. The 260W 10R bulb operates at 7500K color temperature, delivering a bright white light that serves as an ideal base for the fixture's color mixing capabilities.
Dynamic Color and Gobo Effects
The Sharpy fixture features a high-speed interchangeable color wheel with 14 dichroic colors plus open, allowing quick transitions between vibrant hues with minimal color shift. Complementing the color system is a versatile gobo wheel containing 17 fixed metal gobos plus open, which can be rotated, shaken, and combined to create diverse pattern effects. An 8-facet prism and 16-facet prism (stackable) add additional dimensionality, splitting the beam into multiple precise patterns that can rotate bi-directionally at variable speeds. These effect systems combine to provide endless creative possibilities for dynamic lighting sequences.
Professional Control and Reliability
The 260W 10R Sharpy Light offers comprehensive control options tailored for professional DJ and stage applications, including DMX512 protocol with 16/20 channel modes, stand-alone operation with built-in programs, master-slave synchronization, and sound activation. The fixture includes both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors for flexible integration with standard lighting control systems. A backlit LCD display provides clear menu navigation and fixture status, even in low-light environments. Built-in protection features include overheating safeguards, voltage regulation, and lamp monitoring, ensuring reliable operation during extended use. The rugged aluminum housing withstands the rigors of touring and frequent setup/teardown.
Product Applications
Nightclubs and Dance Venues
In nightclub environments, the Sharpy's intense beam and fast movement create the high-energy atmosphere that defines memorable nights out. Its narrow beam cuts through smoke to create dramatic aerial effects, while the color and gobo options allow customization to match venue themes or specific events. The fixture's compact size makes it ideal for installation in truss systems above dance floors, where its fast movements can track DJ performances and energize crowds.
Mobile DJ Productions
For mobile DJs and event entertainers, this fixture delivers professional-grade effects in a transportable package (19 kgs). Its powerful output eliminates the need for multiple less powerful fixtures, simplifying setup while maximizing impact. The sound activation mode allows automatic synchronization with music, creating dynamic light shows with minimal programming required. The durable construction withstands the demands of frequent transport and venue changes.
Concert Support and Live Music
As part of larger lighting rigs for bands and live music performances, the 260W 10R Sharpy adds precision beam effects that complement wash lights and other stage lighting. Its ability to create sharp patterns and mid-air effects enhances visual storytelling during songs, while the fast movement keeps pace with energetic performances. Multiple units can be synchronized to create complex beam choreography that adds excitement to live shows.
Event Production and Festivals
For festivals, raves, and large-scale events, this moving head light provides the power and visibility needed to entertain crowds in large spaces. Its long-throw capability (visible at 59,760 lux from 20 meters) ensures effects remain impactful even in outdoor environments. The fixture's weather-resistant design (with optional protective covers) makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor event applications.
FAQ
What is the lifespan of the 10R bulb?
The premium 260W 10R platinum metal halide bulb has an average lifespan of 1500 hours under normal operating conditions. This can vary based on usage patterns, with longer life achievable by avoiding frequent on/off cycles and operating the fixture within recommended temperature ranges (-30°C to 40°C).
How does this Sharpy model differ from lower-wattage versions?
The 260W 10R model offers significantly higher output (59,760 lux at 20m) compared to lower-wattage Sharpy lights, making it suitable for larger venues and outdoor applications. Its more powerful bulb creates a more intense beam that maintains definition over greater distances, while the enhanced cooling system manages the higher thermal output for reliable operation.
Can the beam angle be adjusted?
This fixture features a fixed ultra-narrow 3.8° beam angle that creates its distinctive laser-like quality. While not adjustable, this focused beam is ideal for creating sharp patterns, aerial effects, and precise highlights—complementing wash fixtures that provide broader coverage in a lighting rig.
What is the power consumption?
The fixture has a maximum power consumption of 350W, including the 260W bulb and internal electronics. This efficiency allows multiple units to be operated on standard electrical circuits, reducing the need for specialized power distribution in mobile setups.
Does the fixture require any special cooling?
The Sharpy features an advanced active cooling system with variable-speed fans and precision heat sinks that efficiently manage thermal output. The system adjusts fan speed based on internal temperature, ensuring optimal cooling during high-demand operation while minimizing noise during quieter moments. This makes it suitable for environments where both performance and noise levels matter.
