beamZ Pro BS1100IP - Powerful RGB/CW LED Strobe and Blinder for Outdoor Use
The beamZ Pro BS1100IP is a multifunctional professional lighting fixture designed to deliver exceptional performance as a strobe, blinder, or visual effects light. Its rugged, IP65-rated construction makes it perfectly suited for the rigors of touring, festivals, and events, both indoors and outdoors, ensuring reliable operation in any weather conditions.
At the heart of the BS1100IP lies an advanced dual LED system. On one hand, a main panel composed of 768 RGB SMD LEDs enables the creation of vibrant strobe effects and color washes, with smooth yet powerful color blending. This panel is segmented into 96 individually controllable sections, opening up a wide range of possibilities for creating complex pixel-mapping effects and dynamic animations. Complementing the color panel, a central strip of 128 high-power Cool White SMD LEDs, divided into 16 sections, provides the classic, impactful, high-intensity strobe effect demanded by the most energetic productions. The combination of both LED systems allows not only the use of the effects separately but also their blending for unique and spectacular visual results.
Built on a rugged aluminum housing, the BS1100IP utilizes a convection cooling system. This means it has no fans, ensuring completely silent operation—a crucial factor for applications in theater, television, or corporate events where ambient noise is a concern. Its LCD control panel facilitates manual setup and access to its multiple operating modes, including automatic programs, manual control, master/slave mode, and, of course, full DMX integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use the BS1100IP in the rain?
- Yes. Its IP65 rating ensures it is protected against water jets from any direction, making it safe for use in rainy conditions.
- Do I need a DMX control console to use it?
- Not necessarily. The BS1100IP includes pre-configured automatic programs and a master/slave mode that allows multiple units to be synchronized without an external controller. However, for complete creative control over colors and pixel zones, the use of a DMX controller is recommended.
- Does the equipment generate a lot of noise?
- No. This device uses a passive convection cooling system, which means it has no internal fans. It operates completely silently.
- What type of connectors does it use?
- It uses 3-pin XLR connectors for DMX signal input and output and dedicated power connectors with protection for outdoor use.
