100 – 277 VAC, 60° Spread Lens, White Housing, UL/CE/CQC
Exterior versatile and customizable luminaire with intelligent RGBA light
Blast Powercore gen5, RGBA high-performance LED luminaires combine white and rich, saturated, color and color-changing effects with simplified installation. Blast Powercore gen5 offers a range of accessories that allow customizable beam angles for floodlighting, spotlighting, wall washing, and grazing, along with the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of Powercore technology in a rugged die-cast aluminium housing.
- Expands customization with a wide range of new accessory options. In addition to the native 10° lens, five different spread lenses can customize the luminaire to produce 20°, 40°, 60°, 80°, and 10° x 40° (asymmetric) beam angles. Three housing color choices (black, gray, and white) – plus the option to add or combine a louver, rock guard, full glare shield, and half glare shield – create new aesthetic possibilities for designers and architects.
- Improves color consistency between all LED luminaires in a family with Chromasync technology. During the manufacturing process a calibrated light measurement device creates an algorithm to define a common color gamut for an entire family of LED luminaires. When Chromasync is enabled, color consistency between luminaires is achieved without having to manually adjust color points on each luminaire.
- Meets ASTM B117 standard for > 1,500 hours of corrosion resistance and ANSI C136.31-2010 standard with a 3G vibration rating.
- Features an innovative, redesigned optical system that improves the quality of light from each LED, enhancing the color uniformity and color mixing capabilities of each Blast Powercore gen5 luminaire.
- Improves durability with new flat lens that prevents water from pooling into the luminaire, keeping the LEDs protected and secure over the course of a luminaire’s lifetime.
- Integrates patented Powercore technology that controls power output to luminaires directly from line voltage – rapidly, efficiently, and accurately.
The Color Kinetics Data Enabler Pro merges line voltage with control data and delivers them to luminaires over a single standard cable, dramatically simplifying installation and lowering total system cost. - Universal power input range of 100 to 277 VAC.
- Works seamlessly with the complete Color Kinetics line of controllers, including ColorDial Pro, iPlayer 3, and Light System Manager – as well as third-party controllers.

† Native beam lumen output measurements comply with IES LM-79-08 testing procedures. All other beam angle measurements are estimated based on the native beam measurements.
§ Lxx = xx% lumen maintenance (when light output drops below xx% of initial output). All values are given at B10, or the median value where 90% of the LED population is better than the reported or calculated lumen maintenance measurement.
¶ Minimum surge limits per IEC 61547, tested in accordance with IEC 61000-4-5.
†† When mounting to a junction box, the Color Kinetics wiring compartment accessory must be used to maintain a 3G vibration rating.
¶¶ Lumen maintenance figures are based on lifetime prediction graphs supplied by LED source manufacturers. Whenever possible, figures use measurements that comply with IES LM-80-08 testing procedures. In accordance with TM-21-11, Reported values represent the interpolated value based on six times the LM-80-08 total test duration (in hours). Calculated values represent time durations that exceed six times the total test duration.
