by Shane Henson — January 27, 2012—Because of the long lengths of wires involved, traditional club lighting can be more difficult than Christmas lights to take down. Yet, a new partnership between Wire-Free LED and Ellumiglow has brought to market a new club lighting technology that both companies say can save event managers time and money, and “completely revolutionize” the way most event companies do business.
By breaking free of current wired technology, it frees up countless hours of tedious set-up and take-down time. With this new technology, now stage lighting can be installed in minutes. High-quality, wireless, long-lasting, versatile lighting fixtures have finally arrived, say the companies.
New Wire-Free LED Par Can technology uses high-output light-emitting diode (LED) red-green-blue (RGB), red-green-blue-amber (RGBA), and red-green-blue-white (RGBW) TruWhite lighting fixtures to provide exceptional lighting quality, combined with simplicity. Capable of producing nearly every color in the spectrum, these club lights come with more than 100 beautiful preset colors, and even produce TRUE White, says the company.
Wire-Free LED Par Cans can be controlled with a smart color remote, by DMX (digital multiplex) , manually, or even with an iPhone, adds Ellumiglow. High-output Wire-Free LED Lights put out the same output as a typical par 56, but are rated for use for 80,000 to 100,000 hours. These high output bulbs last so long, if they were on for 24 hours a day, they wouldn’t need replacing for more than 11 years, both companies assert.
Versatility is another key element in the Wire-Free LED lineup, as all fixtures can be mounted on trussing, placed on the floor or table, and even mounted to the wall or ceiling in seconds.
Assembled in the USA, new high-quality DJ (disc jockey) Lighting fixtures are starting to show up in elite nightclubs, and quickly becoming a necessity among event lighting companies. With high-performance lead acid internal batteries, these fixtures stay lit for 6 to 12 hours without the need of any cables. When finished, the lights are placed neatly back into the charging flight case and can be charged together as a group. These lights are sold in sets of six, and available in different controller configurations.
