Overview
The ColorSource PAR is an affordable LED fixture that uses the RGB-L (red,
green, blue, and lime) color system to provide a rich, bright light.
The ColorSource PAR is available in both original and Deep Blue variants. The
Deep Blue uses an array that offers richer, more saturated blues and stronger
magentas in exchange for the more jewel-toned blues like sky or turquoise.

The ColorSource PAR is UL924 listed as a Directly Controlled Luminaire for
use in emergency lighting systems when used with the ETC DMX Emergency
