Meteor Lighting Introduces Archi-Color® Pro, Advancing Architectural White Light and Full-Output Color
Ontario, CA — Meteor Lighting today announced Archi-Color® Pro, a new color technology built to deliver full-strength color and high-output white light from a single architectural luminaire.
The technology addresses a long-standing constraint in architectural color lighting. Traditional RGBW systems often force a trade-off between strong white-light performance and dynamic color capability, with output divided across fixed channels or white light dependent on RGB mixing.
Archi-Color® Pro is built around a proprietary RGBW quad-chip array developed by Meteor. The color chip is rated for up to 250W while operating at approximately 50W, providing a 5× performance reserve for improved thermal stability, color consistency, and long-term reliability. A dynamic power-distribution algorithm governs how output is allocated across the channels, so a single fixture can deliver 100% true white light or full-output color as the application requires.
This enables designers to specify one luminaire for both everyday illumination and dramatic color scenes, reducing fixture count and simplifying design while maintaining consistent, high-output illumination across all applications.

Archi-Color® Pro was inspired by Meteor’s work in houses of worship, performance venues, and architainment installations — spaces that require dependable white light for daily use and the ability to transition into color-changing scenes.
“Across many projects, we saw the same challenge, spaces needed strong, reliable white light for everyday use, but when the program shifts, they need color to change the atmosphere. We weren’t trying to build another RGBW fixture. We wanted to solve the compromise between white light and color.”
— Hanson Chen, Sales Director at Meteor Lighting
Paired with Meteor’s VX Driver™, Archi-Color® Pro provides flicker-free dimming at up to 960 fps for broadcast-ready performance across white, color, and low-level dimming scenes.
Archi-Color® Pro is now available in Meteor’s Atria Series cylinders and REV Series downlights.

Key benefits of Archi-Color® Pro include:
- 100% true white light or 100% full-color output in a single luminaire
- Dynamic power distribution that maximizes output across white and color channels
- Long-term color consistency
- Flicker-free dimming across scene transitions
