Frequently asked questions
Are these two products compatible with each other?
No. The ELP CL IP is a self-contained light fixture with its own internal power electronics and control. The PowerPort 1000 is designed as infrastructure to power and process Martin LED video panels, not ellipsoidal fixtures.
Which product is better for outdoor festivals or temporary touring?
The ELP CL IP. It is built to be moved between venues, weighs only 12.2 kg, and carries IP65 and C3 corrosion ratings for touring resilience. The PowerPort 1000 is engineered for permanent or semi-permanent outdoor installations where it remains stationary.
What is the actual light output difference, and does CRI matter for my application?
The ELP CL IP produces 6,900 lumens at 85 CRI (High Output mode) or 5,900 lumens at 90 CRI (High Quality mode). Higher CRI is better for skin tones and color-critical theatre work. The PowerPort 1000 does not produce light; it supplies power to LED panels, so CRI does not apply.
Can the PowerPort 1000 handle multiple LED displays or panels?
Yes. The unit provides four M16 cable gland outputs, each rated to 5 amps maximum, for a combined 20 amps. It includes dual RJ45 connectors for daisy-chaining P3 data across multiple LED modules in a modular system.
