Martin RUSH BLINDER 1 Static Warm White LED Blinder
Description
Martin RUSH BLINDER 1 Static Warm White LED Blinder
The RUSH BLINDER 1 WW is an ultra-bright quad LED blinder that delivers punching intensity across stages, TV productions, and live events. Its compact 2x2 footprint houses four individually-controllable 100-watt COB warm white LEDs, making it equally at home as a solo fixture or clustered into larger pixel-mapping arrays. The lightweight construction and modular frame design keep setup and rigging straightforward even in demanding touring environments.
Optical Performance & Output
Four independent 100-watt COB warm white LEDs generate 19,000+ lumens of combined output across a generous 70° beam angle, ensuring broad wash coverage without tight spotting. This output level makes the fixture suitable for large venues, broadcast applications, and outdoor installations where sheer light intensity is essential.
Control & Integration
The fixture supports DMX512/1990 with RDM compliance across 1, 4, or 8 DMX channel configurations, accommodating both simple and complex control setups. On-board 0–100% electronic dimming with coarse and fine control, plus strobe and pulse effects, provides real-time intensity and effect manipulation without external processors.

Reviews
At a Glance
The Martin RUSH BLINDER 1 is an ultra-bright quad LED blinder packing 19,000+ lumens of warm white output across a compact 2x2 footprint, designed for touring rigs, broadcast TV, and large venues that demand punching intensity and reliability. Its four independently-controllable 100-watt COBs offer real-time dimming, strobe, and pulse effects via DMX512/RDM, while the modular frame lets you cluster multiple fixtures into pixel-mapping arrays for complex stage designs. Built from high-impact thermoplastic and aluminum with convection cooling, it's road-tough and lightweight enough to rig without breaking setup schedules—ideal for touring sound engineers and venue techs running demanding productions.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 70° beam angle mean for my stage or set?
The 70° spread ensures broad wash coverage across large areas without tight spotting, making the fixture suitable for filling big venues, TV studios, and outdoor setups where you need sheer light intensity over a wide field rather than a narrow beam.
Can I control this fixture from my existing lighting console?
Yes—the RUSH BLINDER 1 supports DMX512/1990 with RDM compliance in 1, 4, or 8 DMX channel configurations, so it integrates with standard lighting consoles. It also has on-board electronic dimming, strobe, and pulse effects for standalone or simplified control without an external processor.
How do I set up multiple fixtures together for pixel mapping?
The modular frame design allows multiple RUSH BLINDER 1 fixtures to attach together in a grid pattern, letting you build custom arrays for complex lighting designs. Each fixture remains individually addressable over DMX.
What are the power requirements, and how much heat does it produce?
The fixture draws a maximum of 448 W (typically 426 W at 230 V, 50 Hz) and operates on AC 100–240 V nominal with auto-ranging electronic switching. It uses convection cooling and operates safely between 0–40°C (32–104°F), making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor touring.
How portable is this fixture for touring?
At 9.5 kg (20.9 lbs) with a compact 2x2 footprint (441 × 400 × 177 mm), the RUSH BLINDER 1 is lightweight and road-friendly. High-impact flame-retardant thermoplastic and aluminum construction ensures durability through repeated setup and transport cycles.
