Frequently asked questions
Which is brighter for long-throw architectural lighting?
The XL CTC uses 64 variable white LEDs versus the L QUAD's 16 RGBW LEDs, giving the XL CTC substantially higher output and more even field coverage for large facades and venues.
Can I get saturated colors like deep blue or magenta?
Yes, only the L QUAD delivers full RGB saturation across its 1000K–12500K range. The XL CTC is optimized for white/warm color temperatures (2400K–6500K) and is not designed for saturated RGB effects.
Which fixture is better for permanent outdoor installation?
The XL CTC is purpose-built for permanent installations with C5 corrosion resistance, IK08 impact rating, and a 5-year warranty. The L QUAD is engineered primarily for touring and rental use.
What's the beam angle difference and does it matter?
The L QUAD has an 8° beam angle; the XL CTC has a 7° beam angle. The difference is marginal; both provide focused wash coverage. Choice depends more on your venue size and throw distance.
