The Design LED 36WA white wash is designed for video production and other applications where a white light is needed. It includes 30 white LEDs, plus six amber-coloured LEDs, which can be mixed via DMX to create varying degrees of warm and cool white hues. The more amber added, the warmer the white, giving users the ability to create the exact 'shade' of white they desire.
"The addition of amber on the Design LED 36WA brings the colour up to 3,200K to give it extra warmth," explained Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional. "Users can get just the right degree of warmth or coolness by using the built-in LED intensity control to dial up varying amounts of white and amber light."
The Design LED 36 UV ultraviolet wash is geared towards entertainment venues that want the blacklight UV look. Featuring 36 powerful ultraviolet LEDs that will make objects glow in the dark, this particular fixture is billed as "perfect for bowling centres, laser tag and other establishments that want to create a fun, hip aura". "Glow-in-the-dark lighting plays a big part in today's 'midnight bowling' scene, and the Design LED 36UV fits the application perfectly," Loader said.
The LEDs on both the Design LED 36WA and Design LED 36UV are rated at 100,000 hours and will last for years without replacement. Both fixtures also offer the many other advantages of LED lighting. The units emit almost no heat and will not cause fading or discolouration when placed near displays and exhibits. They're also extremely energy-efficient and economical to operate, as they consume very little power compared to traditional wash effects.
