Martin VDO Atomic Dot CLD Cold White Strobe Blinder Eye Candy Light
The Martin VDO Atomic Dot CLD combines a high-intensity cold white strobe with a pixel-controllable RGB backlight in a remarkably compact footprint. This dual-layer fixture delivers 3350 lumens in boost/strobe mode and 1600 lumens continuous, making it a versatile tool for live broadcast, corporate presentations, nightclub environments, and touring productions where space on a rig is at a premium and performance density matters.
Optical Performance & Control
The fixture produces a sharp 11° beam angle via a 95 mm lens with 5700K color temperature, ideal for cutting through dense lighting setups or delivering punch from a distance. Individual control of the cold white beam and 16 RGB Aura LEDs via P3, DMX, Art-Net, and sACN protocols enables seamless integration into modern lighting systems without additional interface boxes, letting you add dimensionality and dynamic color layers to your lighting design without increasing system complexity.
Build & Deployment
The IP65-rated housing and 2.2 kg weight with bracket allow rapid positioning and repositioning in tight quarters. Smart interlocking mechanics enable multiple fixtures to be combined into battens, arrays, or custom shapes, while the hybrid PDE power and data cable supports daisy-chaining for simplified connections across large rigs and faster load-in workflows.
