"The Next Act...Elations Stage Color Par Can Joins The LED Revolution"
LOS ANGELES - The popular Stage Color par can from Elation Professional has taken a giant step into the future. The company has introduced an LED version, inspired by the original - called the Stage Color LED -- which incorporates the latest in LED technology to create the ultimate high-output professional stage lighting par can.
Outfitted with 24 1W LED lamps, the new Stage Color LED combines DMX 512 protocol with RGB color mixing for precise control over a large palette of rich colors. Intended primarily for stage use, it produces a high impact without the heat emission of a traditional par can, keeping actors and performers cooler and more comfortable.
“Our extremely successful Stage Color par can has joined the LED revolution and reached a higher level of performance with this major new product release,” said Eric Loader, Director of Sales for Elation Professional. “With all the obvious benefits of LEDs, the Stage Color LED clearly represents the next generation of stage lighting fixtures. We compared this new unit color-to-color with a 575W lamp with primary gel filters, and the output is comparable color-to-color.”
The Stage Color LEDs optical system employs 8 red, 8 green and 8 blue LEDs to produce virtually any color imaginable within the full visible spectrum for deep, mood-enhancing background lighting. A continuous range of colors and ultra-smooth color scrolling can be achieved by varying the intensity of the LEDs from 0-100%.
In addition to RGB color mixing, the Stage Color LED offers users all the other advantages of LED technology. With long-life LED lamps rated at 50,000 hours, this par can will require virtually no servicing or lamp replacements, and it will consistently produce the highest quality of output without color fading. Plus, the Stage Color LEDs low energy draw, just 45W at maximum power, allows users to run multiple fixtures on one circuit and save money on electrical costs. “On the old Stage Color you needed 1x15A circuit to run one unit . . . now we can put 30 Stage Color LED fixtures on one circuit!” said Loader.
Equipped with 7 DMX channels, Stage Color LED also offers other advanced features not found on conventional par cans. These include: full dimming from 0-100%; strobing in any color at a variable rate of 0-18 flashes per second; plus Stand-Alone, Master/Slave and Sound-Active operational modes.
The fixture includes a 10° degree beam angle. For added versatility, an optional diffusion filter is available, which can be fitted in the gel frame creating a wider angle beam..
Equivalent in size to a Par 64 fixture, the Stage Color LED measures 18.5”L x 10.75”W x 10”H and weighs 9 lbs. It is available in a high polished housing and can be rigged using the provided hanging yoke or mounted directly on the floor with the rugged dual yoke design.
The MSRP of the Stage Color LED is $659.95.
