Based in Oldenburg, North Germany, Günther Alberding's company, E Media Design (EMD), required additional lighting for the events and tournaments they support throughout the country. All 32 heads went out on the first job, and operated flawlessly.
The versatile and fully-featured XL1500 is fitted with a powerful 1500W short-arc discharge lamp, optimised by the advanced optical system to achieve maximum brightness. Suspended from the overhead rig, the XL1500's are providing the main spotlight effect and effect projection during the shows themselves - as well as projecting sponsors' logos.
Alberding said that the units' brightness was one of the main reasons for purchasing the fixtures, and noted the extremely good build and beam quality in relation to the low price. He had previously tested the quality of PR's fixtures by renting quantities of the XL 700 series from Focon's sample stock.
"I am very impressed by the brightness of the XL1500's, as well as the sharpness of the projection and finally the extremely good quality of the product," he said.
