Frequently asked questions

Which fixture is better for touring and temporary stage setups?

The Martin RUSH MH 10 Beam FX is designed for touring and rental operations, with a lightweight 7.5 kg body and flexible control modes that suit mobile deployment. The Exterior Linear 1220 is engineered for permanent outdoor installation and would be impractical for touring.

Which fixture is suitable for outdoor architectural lighting?

The Martin Exterior Linear 1220 is purpose-built for outdoor use with IP66 weatherproofing, IK08 impact rating, and integrated power integration for fixed installations. The RUSH MH 10 has no outdoor rating and is intended for indoor nightlife and touring environments.

How do the beam characteristics differ?

The RUSH MH 10 produces a tight 4.4° cutoff beam with a supplementary LED ring for creative layering and effects. The Exterior Linear 1220 delivers a 70° × 12.5° asymmetric beam optimized for grazing texture on walls and surfaces rather than concentrated beam projection.

What is the difference in color control?

The RUSH MH 10 uses RGBW mixing on the main beam plus individual RGB control on the ring for color effects. The Exterior Linear 1220 provides color temperature control from 2700 K to 6500 K, enabling warm-to-cool shifts for architectural and ambient applications without external gels or filtering.
