This looks like a pretty cool light. I don't have a lot of experience with Ayrton fixtures, but this article makes them out to be a pretty good company. What stood out to me was the range of color the article said the Domino Wash had, as well as the water cooling built in. Of course, color changing lights are becoming something of an industry standard today, but I remember working on really old Chauvet movers that only had a color wheel, so you only got the 6 or 7 or however many colors they decided to put in the fixture. Same with color temperature; there were only 2 options, if I remember correctly. As for the IP65 rating; honestly, I don't really like IP65. In my experience, you get all these lights with IP65 ratings and put them outside to do a show, and they start filling up with dead bugs and other crap, and then after enough use the rubber gaskets wear out and let water in and it's ruined. But it is kind of the best we have right now in the way of weatherproof lights.
