UK - Technicians at the Royal Albert Hall will no longer have to don a safety harness and be hoisted 9ft into the air to focus luminaires, thanks to the safe thinking of senior technical manager Luke Manning, who has replaced conventionals with moving lights, including ETC Source Four Revolutions.

Manning reports: "The principal reason we've upgraded all our generic heads to intelligent units is for health and safety reasons. The whole industry has a duty to improve working conditions and to reduce the risk of accidents wherever possible."

ETC's luminaires product manager Tom Littrell adds: "The Source Four is the most efficient tungsten luminaire for entertainment, given its high performance lamp and a dichroic ellipsoidal reflector which pushes more light out of the front and heat out of the back. This means a 750W Source Four is as bright as a 1200W unit with condenser optics from competitors."
