Martin MAC Viper XIP Now Available for Hire

Next-generation IP65 profile brings legendary Viper performance with smart weatherproofing

We're excited to announce that the Martin MAC Viper XIP is now available in our rental stock. This next-generation IP65 profile combines the legendary Viper performance that designers trust with genuinely smart weatherproofing technology.

Viper Performance, Rain or Shine

The MAC Viper XIP isn't simply a Viper in a waterproof box. Martin have re-engineered the fixture from the ground up to handle outdoor conditions whilst maintaining - and in many cases improving - the performance that made the Viper family famous.

Full IP65 certification means complete protection against water jets from any direction and total dust ingress protection. For outdoor festivals, stadium shows, and architectural installations, that's genuine peace of mind. No more weather contingencies, plastic covers, or anxious weather-watching.

Smart Weatherproofing Technology

What sets the Viper XIP apart from other outdoor fixtures is Martin's intelligent approach to weatherproofing. The fixture actively manages its internal environment, regulating temperature and humidity to ensure consistent performance regardless of external conditions.

This matters because outdoor fixtures face challenges that go beyond simple water resistance. Temperature swings, humidity variations, and dust accumulation all affect performance over time. The Viper XIP handles all of these intelligently.

Technical Specifications

  • IP65 weather rating - full protection against water jets and dust
  • High-output LED engine
  • Full framing shutter system with rotation
  • Dual gobo wheels with rotating and fixed options
  • Animation wheel for dynamic effects
  • CMY colour mixing plus colour wheel
  • Wide zoom range
  • Prism effects
  • Intelligent thermal management
  • RDM-enabled for remote monitoring

Applications

The Viper XIP excels wherever you need premium profile capability in outdoor or challenging environments. Festival main stages, stadium touring, outdoor theatre, architectural lighting, and permanent installations all benefit from the combination of performance and protection.

Hire Details

The Martin MAC Viper XIP is available for hire at £250 per day. All units are PAT tested, fully maintained, and ready for deployment in any environment. We maintain stock levels suitable for major festival and touring requirements.
