Par for the course

Fore! As in, sometimes I feel like I need to hit people in the head with a golf club to make them adopt better technology. The one that has come to mind a lot recently is the comparison between the age-old 1K par lamp and the newer Source Four PAR fixture. Now, first, lets be clear that I’m talking about ETC’s Source Four PAR and not the Source Four Ellipsoidal (Leko) fixture that so many folks associate with the Source Four name. Next we’ll use the tired and tested Mole-Richardson 1K Molepar as the base model for comparison of photometric … Continue reading →

Inflate - A - Light (Airstar Balloon)

Did you know we have a balloon that inflates to five feet in diameter and lights up with 2000 watts? The Airstar Crystal 160 is a giant soft lighting source that is inflated and sustained by an internal fan. The fan has both high and low speeds that can be switched down after the initial inflation to help with sound. Inside the inflated white ball are two 1,000 watt halogen bulbs, which can only be lit once fully inflated (for your safety).  China balls have nothing on this huge, softly lit globe.
