The ADJ Lighting Encore LP12Z IP is a high-performance, IP65-rated professional wash fixture designed for both indoor and temporary outdoor events. As part of ADJ’s Encore Series, it combines rugged construction with an impressive feature set that makes it an ideal lighting solution for concerts, festivals, stage productions, and architectural applications. Built to withstand harsh weather conditions, the fixture features an all-metal chassis, an anti-corrosion C3 coating, and IP-rated rubber covers that shield its 5-pin DMX sockets and locking power connectors from dust, moisture, snow, and sand.
At its core, the Encore LP12Z IP is powered by twelve 20-watt Quad RGBL (Red, Green, Blue, and Lime) LEDs, offering a long-rated lifespan of 50,000 hours and high color-rendering performance. The inclusion of the lime chip enhances color richness and boosts CRI accuracy, with a measured CRI of 84.4 and CRI R9 of 77. The fixture delivers up to 4,400 lumens and supports fine 16-bit control over each color channel. A wide spectrum of colors can be achieved through direct mixing, 64 built-in color macros, and linear color temperature control from 2700K to 6500K. For convenience, five preset color temperatures—2700K, 3200K, 4000K, 5600K, and 6500K—are also available.
The fixture’s standout motorized zoom allows for precise control of the beam spread, offering a beam angle range from 5° to 30° and a corresponding field angle of 9° to 50°. This makes it highly adaptable, from focused beams to wide-area washes. The electronic dimming system ranges from 0 to 100%, and the unit supports 6 selectable dimming modes and 4 dimming curves, allowing it to adapt to various stage and broadcast environments. An adjustable refresh rate with 14 presets (900Hz to 25,000Hz) ensures flicker-free operation for camera work.
Control flexibility is another major strength of the Encore LP12Z IP. It includes an onboard wireless DMX module with a range of up to 2,500 feet (700 meters) line of sight, supports RDM (Remote Device Management), and offers a range of DMX channel modes (6, 9, 10, 12, 15, and 18). The user interface consists of a 4-button digital display, and operational modes include Static Color, RGBL Dimmer, Program Mode, and full DMX Control. Pulse and strobe effects are also included for dynamic lighting designs.
Physically, the fixture is compact and lightweight for its class, measuring 8.75” x 12.45” x 14.45” (222 x 316 x 367 mm) and weighing just 16.6 lbs. (7.5 kg). It comes equipped with a scissor yoke for versatile mounting, whether rigged overhead or placed on the ground, and a safety eye ensures secure installation. Power is handled through multi-voltage operation (AC 100–240V, 47/63Hz), with a maximum draw of 227W. Up to six units can be daisy-chained at 120V, or twelve at 220V, simplifying setup for large-scale applications.
In summary, the ADJ Encore LP12Z IP is a robust and adaptable wash lighting fixture that combines precise motorized zoom, rich color mixing, wireless and DMX control, and outdoor-ready construction—making it a go-to choice for professional lighting designers who need reliability and flexibility in demanding environments.
