Gantom DB22 DarkBox DMX V2 LED DMX Pattern Generator

A single-output ultra-compact and scalable DMX-tunable LED dimmer device, the DB22 DarkBox DMX V2 also features a variety of built-in patterns (blink, strobe, candle flicker, power surge flicker, and pulse) for use in special-effects lighting without the need to program complex DMX signals. It only takes up 3 DMX channels, controlling brightness, speed, and mode, respectively. It features a machined-aluminum body which protects the unit in harsh environments, plus an upgraded MOSFET that enables higher current capacity and provides protection against output short circuits.

Applications

Dark attractions • Candelabras • Props and animatronics • Lanterns • Special effects strobe • Signage

Features

• Makes any dimmable 12 V LED flicker, strobe, blink, surge, pulsate, or dim
