Brilliant Lighting, Seamless Control.
Liteline brings the simplicity of DMX control to small-aperture, full-color point source lighting, from rich RGB accents to powerful tunable white.

The result is greater flexibility and control, with full-spectrum color tuning and smooth, flicker-free dimming from 100% to 0%, with no dropout.
