Regular cleaning of the elements in the optical path, as well as the fans and air
vents, is vital to maintaining the operational quality of the Ego.
Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particulate buildup degrades
performance and causes overheating and damage to the
fixture that is not covered by the warranty.

To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the fan and air vents
periodically. Remove dust from the fan and air vents with a soft brush, cotton
