I have already contacted my
ETC dealer (4-wall) in order to
purchase some units for comparison. He's telling me the same everyone else has heard, availability in 2-3 months.
This could have huge savings for me. My company is starting 2 new dance tours in the fall, and if I can
send this show out with an entire
LED rig instead of conventionals, I will be able to get by with a 100A service instead of our
current 200A
power service. Convention Center/Hotel
power is EXPENSIVE (usually $1000/day for a 100A, $1500 for a 200A service in most convention centers & large hotels). Our events are 4 day shows, usually about 25 per tour. That's an average savings of $50,000 PER TOUR. We have 2 tours already out (30 cities each tour), and within one year the amount I would save in
power costs would
cover the cost of upgrading my conventionals to Source 4 LEDs.
Plus the fact that I dont need dimmers, wont need as much cabling....seems like a win/win situation for us.
