Smart Cooling for Lasting Performance
The oversized aluminum heat sink provides highly efficient passive cooling, protected with a seawater-resistant anodized coating that meets strict DIN 81249-1 standards. No fans, no noise—just reliable cooling.
Worried about overheating? No need. A smart microprocessor automatically adjusts brightness if temperatures rise too high. Even in extreme conditions, your light stays protected, gradually reducing output to maintain optimal performance and longevity.
99% Light Reflection
The Mitras LX7 IL showcases GHL’s innovative Total Reflection and Diffusion Technology (TRDT™). Each LED is equipped with its own microreflector, nestled within a larger field reflector.
This precision-engineered design, combined with a highly efficient reflector material boasting a reflection and diffusion rate of nearly 100%, delivers unparalleled light performance. By achieving an optimal balance between light spread and immersion depth, it clearly outshines traditional secondary optics, particularly lenses.
Expect a flawless, uniform blend of colors without the distracting “disco-effect” common in other brands.
Interchangeable LED Clusters
Stay ahead with Mitras luminaires, designed for effortless upgrades.
Experience superior illumination with interchangeable LED clusters featuring 72 high-power LEDs (min. 150 lumens/watt for white LEDs) for optimal color mixing and uniform lighting. The marine version includes Hyper Violet (HV) and UV LEDs, ensuring vibrant and natural colors.
Swapping LED clusters is quick and easy, allowing you to take advantage of the latest advancements in lighting technology.
