The Comet is Coming
Horton Engineering of Worcester has announced the introduction of their ProColour Comet luminaire. From conception to production, the ProColour Comet has been carefully crafted to resolve the deficiencies afflicting many LED-based fixtures. For instance, Filament Emulation ensures smooth, DMX-controlled colour fades similar to those of tungsten elements, rather than the jerky, stepped fades of competing LED products. Additionally, a subtle combination of Luxeon emitter positioning and the latest Carclo micro-reflectors endow the 81watt ProColour Comet with a long throw and unprecedented overall beam consistency.
The innovations continue, with features that will cement the ProColour Comet’s reputation as one of the most flexible luminaires available. Thermal efficiency is so effective that cooling fans are not required, even though the ProColour Comet can happily operate at ambient temperatures up to 50oC. Every ProColour Comet is also supplied with a specially created Weather Seal cable gaiter which instantly raises the total dust and moisture protection level to IP64. This is despite using industry standard XLR and Neutrik PowerCon connectors.
Such a combination of silence, weatherproofing and quality light output will place the ProColour high on the kit list of broadcasters and architectural designers alike. However, the ProColour Comet is also engineered to survive the rigours of life on the road due to its machined aluminium body and tough, high impact plastic casings. Thanks to intelligent selection of materials, the ProColour Comet is light too. A mere 3.5kg means less stress on the rig and yet another reason to stock these all round, workhorse fixtures in readiness for a range of tasks.
