The SkyBoxTM 5 features 5/6/7 and 10-channel control modes, which means it works great with any type of controller. Additionally, the built-in 4 character/4 button LCD control panel permits total control over the fixture, including master/slave, auto mode, fade, strobe settings, manual color adjustment, sound active mode, wireless ID settings, IR remote control mode, and power output mode settings.

Depending on the needs of any given application, you can select either High Power, Medium Power, or Battery Saver Mode, which allows the fixture to run for a longer time at lower output. With average usage of color fades in High Output Mode, you can expect the battery life of 10+ hours, color jumping 5+ hrs, or full on for 3+ hrs! The normal battery recharge time is 4 hours and can be done even while in use.

It also features built-in PowerConTM compatible AC power In/Out connectors, 3-pin DMX in/out connections, a main power switch, and an LED illuminated battery power gauge which illuminates red during charge, and green when fully charged. These are all strategically placed on the back of the unit in a way that allows you to use it in ANY position, including flat on the floor.

The built-in SkywireTM wireless receiver provides reliable wireless communication for over 1000 feet, line-of-sight. 512 auto-assigning frequencies in 7 groups (color-coded by an LED indicator) allow up to 7 systems to run simultaneously in the same space, completely free of interference. The frequencies of the SkyBoxTM 5 match up perfectly with all Blizzard Lighting wireless DMX products.
