Rotating Pixel Effect Light with Three Lighting Layers

The rotating pixel effect light RG-257 combines six high-power COB sources, six RGB auxiliary sections and six circular LED strips in one stage fixture. It is designed for concerts, clubs, television productions, festivals and retro-themed event stages.

The main section uses six 40W COB light sources. Around these sources, six RGB auxiliary segments and six circular RGB strips create layered color effects.

The circular strips contain a total of 186 × 0.2W RGB LEDs. Therefore, operators can combine powerful central output with colorful rings, chases and pixel-style patterns.

Six 40W COB Main Sources

The main lighting section consists of six 40W COB sources. These create the fixture’s primary visual output and form six distinct illuminated sections.

COB technology places multiple LED chips within a concentrated emitting area. This produces a larger visual surface than small individual indicator LEDs and works well for audience-facing stage effects.

Lighting designers can combine the six main sources with the auxiliary RGB sections to create alternating patterns, full-fixture effects and music-synchronized sequences.

Six RGB Auxiliary Segments

The fixture includes six segments of RGB auxiliary lighting. These sections add red, green, blue and mixed-color effects around the main COB sources.

Operators can use the auxiliary sections for:

• RGB color changes
• Alternating segment effects
• Music-controlled patterns
• Running-light sequences
• Stage background effects
• Color transitions
• Visual accents between strobe sequences

The segmented structure gives the fixture more visual movement than a conventional single-source retro light.

Six Circular RGB LED Strips

Six circular light strips surround the central lighting sections. Together, the rings contain 186 × 0.2W RGB LEDs.

The circular strips can create:

• Rotating-style visual patterns
• Color chases
• Pixel-ring effects
• Expanding and contracting patterns
• Alternating circles
• Rainbow-style color sequences
• Retro stage visuals

These rings remain visually interesting even at lower output levels. As a result, the fixture can support both atmospheric background scenes and high-energy show moments.

24/34/64CH DMX Modes

The RG-257 provides three DMX channel configurations:

• 24CH mode
• 34CH mode
• 64CH mode

The 24-channel mode supports more efficient programming when console channels are limited.

The 34-channel mode provides expanded access to the fixture’s lighting sections and effects.

The 64-channel mode gives professional programmers greater control over the COB sources, auxiliary segments and LED rings. It is the preferred option for detailed pixel-style programming.

This range allows the fixture to work in small entertainment venues and advanced concert productions.

Smooth 0–100% Dimming

The fixture supports 0–100% ultra-smooth dimming. Operators can create gradual intensity changes across stage scenes and musical transitions.

Smooth dimming is particularly useful when the RG-257 operates as a background visual element. Lighting designers can keep the rings at a lower level and then increase the COB output during performance peaks.

The specification confirms smooth dimming. However, the catalog does not independently confirm camera flicker rates, so the page should not make an unsupported flicker-free broadcasting claim.

DMX and Standalone Control

Available control modes include:

• DMX512
• Automatic programs
• Sound-activated operation
• Master-slave synchronization

DMX512 offers the most detailed control for concerts, festivals and television productions.

Sound mode allows the fixture to respond to music in clubs, bars and mobile DJ systems. Automatic mode runs built-in sequences, while master-slave mode synchronizes several fixtures without separately programming every unit.

Retro Appearance with Modern Pixel Effects

The circular layout gives the RG-257 a recognizable retro stage appearance. Meanwhile, RGB segments and pixel rings add modern color and motion effects.

This combination suits productions that want a visible scenic fixture rather than a light designed to disappear into the rig. Multiple units can form a wall, row or symmetrical stage arrangement.

For example, event designers can place several fixtures behind performers to create repeating circular patterns across the complete stage background.

Advantages for Professional Buyers

The RG-257 combines three lighting layers in one fixture. Rental companies can use its COB sources, auxiliary segments and RGB rings to create several different visual styles without adding separate effect lights.

Its 24/34/64CH modes also support customers with different programming requirements. Smaller venues can choose a simpler mode, while professional designers can use 64CH for more detailed control.

The universal AC 90–240V input supports international markets. Distributors can position the product for clubs, rental companies, stage designers and entertainment venues seeking a distinctive retro pixel effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many COB sources does the RG-257 use?

It uses six 40W COB sources.

How many RGB pixels are in the circular strips?

The six rings contain a total of 186 × 0.2W RGB LEDs.

What is the rated power?

The fixture has a rated power of 300W.

Which DMX modes are available?

It supports 24CH, 34CH and 64CH modes.

Can it work without a DMX controller?
