LDI 2018 is going on now at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Exhibiting in booth #931, Elation Lighting has on display for the first time in North America two all-new visual effects featuring TwinkLED, a patent-pending effect that uses dedicated high-brightness pixels inside large front lenses to provide additional layers of creativity for the lighting designer. Both the Rayzor 760 and IP65-rated Proteus Rayzor 760 incorporate the unique TwinkLED system.
Rayzor 760 is a compact LED wash effects luminaire with five to 77-degree zoom designed to project intense, well-defined mid-air beams, as well as an exceptionally wide and even wash coverage. Driven by seven, independently controlled 60W RGBW LEDs, the RAYZOR 760 has over 8000 lumens designed to stand out on any stage. The oversized front lenses create a large surface that is enhanced by TwinkLED technology. TwinkLED consists of 28 individual white LEDs strategically placed inside the lens itself to create a unique additional layer of effect, with continuous, speed-adjustable pan and tilt rotation.
Elation is also showcasing a range of additional lighting tools:
Proteus Rayzor 760: The Rayzor 760 is now available in a compact and lightweight weather and dust protected IP65 version, the Proteus RAYZOR 760, for use in any environment. The Proteus Rayzor 760’s multi-environmental design makes it an IP65-rated luminaire with continuous pan and tilt rotation. It offers the identical feature set as the RAYZOR 760, including the TwinkLED system.
Elation Proteus Smarty Hybrid
Proteus Smarty Hybrid: Elation will be showcasing the CMY color-mixing Smarty Hybrid at LDI and is introducing its IP65-rated version, the Proteus Smarty Hybrid. It is a compact CMY hybrid fixture with true IP65 rating. Encompassing the same full feature set and using the same efficient Philips MSD Platinum Flex 200 lamp with 6000-hour lamp life, the Proteus Smarty Hybrid’s IP65 dust and water protection means this compact and versatile effect can be used indoors or out. Features include fast movement, motorized zoom, full CMY color mixing, 13 dichroic colors, two gobo wheels, prism overlay and frost filter.
Elation Artiste Van Gogh
Artiste Van Gogh: This powerful framing wash LED luminaire is designed as a partner to the profile luminaires in Elation’s growing Artiste range. Providing up to 16,000 total lumens from an efficient 380W high CRI LED engine, the Artiste Van Gogh is designed to provide color rendering for precise color reproduction. CMY and CTO color mixing and a seven-position color wheel provide flexible color options and an internal four-blade barn door system allows for beam shaping and light control at any angle. With a wide zoom range and choice of PC or optional Fresnel lens, the Van Gogh is capable of concentrated beams to wide washes for use in a variety of applications that require high output and precise beam control.
Smarty Hybrid: Smarty Hybrid is a full-featured Spot, Beam and Wash fixture and the most compact CMY color-mixing hybrid Elation has released to date. Featuring a new Platinum lamp using “Flex" technology it offers a discharge lamp/ballast package (6,000 hour lamp life) for 14,000 lumens performance. The lamp is dimmable and power to the lamp is reduced when not in use. Features include motorized zoom, full CMY color mixing, linear CTO, 13 dichroic colors, two gobo wheels, prism overlay and more. Elation has introduced an Ultimate Warranty program on Smarty Hybrid that covers the first two years of operation or 6,000 hours of use, whichever comes first, and includes the efficient Platinum Flex 200 lamp.
Elation Artiste Picasso
Artiste Picasso: The Artiste Picasso is a theatrical-grade luminaire designed to marry creative expression with the latest in high-tech innovation. A new 620W Cool White LED engine combines with an advanced optical system to produce a powerful, crisp output of over 23,000 total lumens. It is also designed to be quiet for use in noise-sensitive applications. Other features include zoom, framing, CMY, CTO, gobo wheels, animation, prisms and more, in a compact design for stage environments of all types.
Cuepix 16 IP: The Cuepix 16 IP is a 4x4 LED blinder and effect panel with all-weather IP65 protection. Designers can add high-impact color or white light, eye candy or pixel-mapped effects to productions of all types without the worry of weather and cost and inconvenience of protective coverings.
Elation also offers two new series of LED color changers that use the latest seven-color multi-chip LED technology, Seven Batten linear lighting effects and outdoor-rated Seven Par IP color changers. Both luminaires give lighting designers access to an even wider spectrum of color options to paint stages, sets, scrims and scenery in high-impact colored or high-quality white light.
