Martin VC-Dot 1 LED String 2m Long
Description
Martin VC-Dot 1 LED String 2m Long
The VC-Dot 1 is a lightweight, individually controllable LED string engineered for stage installations, live performance backdrops, and touring-ready lighting rigs. Each dot delivers calibrated RGB color mixing with bright, consistent output across the entire string, enabling fast programming and reliable cue execution without complex setup overhead. The 2-meter lead-in configuration arrives ready for immediate deployment in both indoor and outdoor performance environments.
Optical Performance & Light Output
Each VC-Dot 1 features a single RGB LED with a 127° × 127° viewing angle (expanding to 180° × 180° when fitted with the diffuser dome), calibrated to deliver 2 cd luminous intensity and balanced color output of 1.5 lm red, 3.6 lm green, and 0.4 lm blue. Peak power consumption reaches 0.95 W per dot at full intensity and white, allowing efficient operation across large string deployments without straining touring power infrastructure.
Customization & Control Infrastructure
Pixel pitch is fully customizable from a standard 100 mm spacing up to 1000 mm maximum, enabling you to adapt dot density to any stage design or structural constraint. Control integrates seamlessly with the Martin P3 System Controller and DMX512, with intuitive mapping and addressing that eliminates tedious configuration—the string also accepts RDM/DMX for flexible lighting-only applications during live shows.
