ETC product marketing manager David Lincecum says,"ETC has proven that we are the manufacturer to trust when it comes to both tungsten and LED sources. The new Source Four and Selador fixtures were designed with the user experience in mind. We talked to professionals in the field and designed the fixtures to meet their needs and simplify their work, while still producing spectacular light."
The Desire line offers three different PAR-shaped chassis: the bright D40 with 40 LED emitters; the super-bright D60 with 60 emitters and the D40XT that is rated for exterior use.
The luminaires feature Selador's x7 Color System, which uses balanced blends of up to seven different shades of LED emitters to provide the widest colour gamut possible from LED fixtures.
For the first time, ETC is offering a Source Four Fresnel. Combining the light output and energy savings of the Source Four line with the optics of a Fresnel, it uses the same HPL lamp family as other Source Four fixtures, so end-users only need to stock a single lamp in their inventory. And the design of the socket and access door on the fixture means the lamp can be changed from underneath, without having to break focus.
The new Source Four XT HID spotlight is built in a new format constructed to stand up to the elements. IP65 rated for exterior use, the XT is watertight, dust tight and can operate safely in extreme temperatures. The sleek, low-profile design will blend unobtrusively into any exterior, long throw application, says the company.
