Frequently asked questions

What is the main difference between these two models?

The ELP CL IP includes IP65 weatherproofing and C3 corrosion resistance for outdoor and temporary use, while the standard ELP CL is designed for controlled indoor installations without those environmental protections.

Do both fixtures have the same output and color performance?

Yes, both deliver 6,900 lumens at 85 CRI (High Output) or 5,900 lumens at 90 CRI (High Quality), use 91 RGBAL Luxeon Rebel LEDs, and offer 2000–10000K color temperature range.

Which fixture should I choose for a permanent indoor theater?

The standard ELP CL is sufficient for permanent indoor installations where weatherproofing is not needed, and typically offers better value for that specific use case.

Can the ELP CL IP be used indoors?

Yes, the ELP CL IP can operate indoors, but the added weatherproofing and corrosion resistance justify the higher price only if you need those features for outdoor or temporary deployments.
