The Antari DarkFX Strip 1020 is an amazing UV LED bar. It offers high output with low power consumption. At full intensity, it emits a peak wavelength of 365nm and a radiant flux output of over 9000mW, with very little visible light. This makes all UV - reactive materials, art, amusement park displays, and signage shine with bright and vivid colors. It comes with 12 high - power 1.9W UV LEDs, a 40 - degree beam angle, and special optics to stop wear from high UV exposure. It operates flicker - free, perfect for TV and film. The IP20 - rated aluminum housing is for indoor use only. It has an adjustable mounting bracket and a 22AWG power/data bare wire end pigtail cable at the back, which connects to the Antari DarkFX Drive 4 fixture driver (sold separately) for power and DMX control. Key features include high - efficiency operation, a 40 - degree beam angle, a 365nm peak wavelength with minimal visible light, over 9000mW high output at full intensity, special optics for protection, and flicker - free operation for media. Technical specs show 12 high - power UV LEDs with an average 20,000 - hour life (which can vary), a 40 - degree optical angle, 365nm peak wavelength, over 9000mW radiant flux output. It needs the DarkFX Drive 4 II driver, has a bare - wire cable connection, specific size and weight dimensions, runs on DC 20 - 24V with a max 24 - watt consumption, and is CE - approved for indoor use only.
Using the Antari DarkFX Strip 1020 is quite simple. First, make sure you have the Antari DarkFX Drive 4 fixture driver (sold separately) as it's required for power and DMX control. Connect the 22AWG power/data bare wire end pigtail cable at the back of the LED bar to the driver. You can then adjust the mounting bracket according to your needs for the best angle. When using it, remember it's only for indoor use because of its IP20 rating. Keep in mind that the average LED life is 20,000 hours, but this can change depending on things like the environment, power, how often you turn it on and off, and dimming. To maintain it, avoid exposing it to high - humidity areas. Clean it gently with a soft, dry cloth. If you notice any issues with the flicker - free operation or the output, check the connection to the driver and the power supply.
