ADJ Protégé XS 250W Compact LED-Powered Beam / Spot / Wash Moving Head Fixture

The ADJ Protégé XS packs beam, spot, and wash capabilities into a compact LED moving-head fixture. Its 250W white LED engine delivers up to 9,800 lumens, while motorized zoom and focus let you shape everything from tight aerial looks to crisp gobo projections. Engage the heavy frost filter to soften the output for smooth wash effects.

Color and effects in a compact fixture

Two color wheels, each with eight colors, provide a varied palette for stage and event lighting. A rotating gobo wheel holds seven interchangeable glass patterns, complemented by a static wheel with eleven fixed aluminum gobos, including two beam reducers. Add depth with overlay-capable six-facet linear and circular prisms, or introduce moving texture with the animation wheel on its movable arm.

Flexible movement and wireless control

Three-phase motors provide 540°/630° pan and 270° tilt, with a separate continuous 360° pan function for sweeping effects. Wired DMX and RDM work alongside integrated Aria X2 wireless DMX and remote fixture management. A full-color reversible LCD and six-button touch control panel support local setup, while pan and tilt locks help secure the head for transport.
