Chroma-Q Color Force LED Shines for Leading Hire Companies
The first shipment of the new Chroma-Q Color Force mighty output coloured LED fixture range has gone straight into the rental stocks of leading UK production companies in the event, broadcast and performance lighting sectors. Early adopters include Colour Sound Experiment, DBN Lighting and White Light.
Colour Sound Experiment managing director, Haydn Cruickshank commented: "I’ve used various LED battens before but in my experience, none of them have been bright enough to adequately light large stage backdrops. The Color Force fills this need perfectly. I expect it to do really well on our clients’ productions needing a powerful stage theatrical style cyc light."
DBN lighting designer, Stephen Page commented: "The Color Force batten offers exceptional brightness and versatility. There’s ample output to uplight or downlight stage backdrops, plus the RGBA optics deliver a full range of colours and varying colour tones. It does a great white too. Having separately controllable LED cells makes for some interesting coloured effects using a single fixture. The dimming is also the smoothest I’ve seen in an LED fixture of this type. We see a lot of potential applications replacing a traditional cyc flood with the Color Force. It's a great all rounder."
White Light hire and tectnical director, David Isherwood commented: "We are very pleased with the Color Force. It's already proving popular with customers and we are looking at increasing our stocks to meet demand."
The Color Force line-up includes super bright 12,000 lumens (1.8m) and 8,000 lumens (1.2m) RGBA battens that easily wash up to 8m high. Launching at PLASA 2010 and expanding the range is the new Color Force 12, a compact 30cm wide, 2,000 lumens version that provides the ideal multi-purpose LED fixture for floor, wall or truss mounting. Other range features include a huge RGBA full colour palette capable of deep cold blues and red hot lava looks in a single fixture, CRI of 92, independently controlled cells, theatrical grade dimming and an extremely smooth, uniform wash.
Also launching soon are the new Chroma-Q Daylight Force mighty output white LED battens, which produce a massive 48,000 lumens (1.8m) and 32,000 lumens (1.2m) of 5600K CCT light. Other features include theatrical grade dimming and an extremely smooth, uniform wash.
The full Chroma-Q LED range will be on display at PLASA 2010 (Stand 1-E11). For more information visit www.chroma-q.com
