"An enormous number of venues around the world are still using lights we made literally decades ago using candle or golf ball bulbs" says sales manager Keith Hogben. "The new mains voltage LEDlight enables them to get into the 21st century by upgrading those old lights to the very latest technology."
The new light uses warm white LEDs which operate in the only part of the spectrum that professional musicians will tolerate. They give very bright and very even illumination of the score, and the sharpest cut-off of any light on the market.
"Our customers face a constant battle between the musicians and the lighting designe,r" says Andrew Michell, MD of RAT Music Stands. "The musos always want more light, but the lighting designers want to minimise the light pollution coming from the pit. The LEDlight gives them the best of both worlds - lots of light, but very little spillage."
The mains voltage LEDlight can be dimmed by all known types of dimmer, says the company.
