Among the fixtures Elation will be displaying at PLS are the Design Spot LED, E Spot LED and Platinum Spot 5R -- the first two powered by LED light sources, and the third featuring Philips MSD Platinum 5R Lamp Technology. "All three of these products represent exciting technological breakthroughs. They provide the power and brightness typically associated with a much larger fixture in an amazingly small and energy-efficient package," said Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional.
The Platinum Spot 5R DMX moving head produces an output comparable to a 575-watt fixture, yet is half the size, uses less than half the energy and weighs half as much as a typical 250-watt fixture, says the company.
The Design Spot LED is a LED-powered version of Elation's popular Design Spot 250 Pro DMX moving head. It weighs less than the original model while offering output equal to a 250-watt discharge lamp plus an extended 50,000-hour LED lamp life. It offers all the same features as the original, including a Variable Frost Filter, which allows it to function as a hybrid spot/wash effect, and a motorised iris and motorised focus. Nine dichroic colours, 14 gobos and a three-facet rotating/indexing prism are also included.
The E Spot LED is a 14-channel DMX spot effect with a 50,000-hour rated LED light source. It has an output greater than a standard 150-watt discharge fixture, while consuming about half the energy.
