Portman Lights Mantis Overview

When one requires a fascinating new accent on stage or in the studio, look towards the Mantis RGBW LED Decorative Stage Light from Portman. Using 250W, its unique design is engineered to simultaneously deliver light from both color-changing RGBW LEDs and specialized sources meant to emulate the warm illumination of traditional halogen lamps.
Retro-Futuristic Feel
A triplet configuration of LED sources gives the Mantis its distinct profile. The arrangement of its four LED cells is veritably futuristic, yet the tubular 60W light sources contained within the fixture's wings mimic warm-white halogen bulbs for a recognizably retro appearance. While these sources are adjustable only within a 1600-3200K tungsten color temperature range, they are backed up by a dynamic display of full-color spectrum light. This effect is achieved by 12W LEDs hidden behind the tungsten-type bulbs to provide consistent glows of a wide range of hues. Their red/green/blue/white configuration ensures a consistent rendition of cover across the entirety of their dimming range. A third source, a centralized RGBW hexagon, offers supplementary color capabilities and will accept light-modifying gobos. One Mantis light fixture is enough to draw the attention of audiences, but rigging multiple units in an expansive structure is a sure way to mesmerize crowds.
Adaptable Controls
Though it sports a particularly old school façade, the Mantis operates using modern systems familiar to most lighting techs and stage designers. Located on the rear of the unit is a convenient OLED display with four tactile buttons for navigating menus to set color, intensity, and other parameters to fit the needs of the production. As the Mantis is equipped with the Portman Color Feedback System, the buttons are backlit by RGB LEDs and will indicate a variety of current settings for hands-free monitoring of the light. When operating the fixture at a distance is preferable, a 5-pin XLR input is available for controlling these same settings as well as programmed macros using one's DMX control surfaces; a DMX output also allows for daisy-chaining up to 32 units at once. With the purchase of an optional wireless module, the Mantis may also be operated via WDMX.
