Here's what we have: 6 Philips Selecon Arena 8" Fresnels with CYX lamps (2kW, 54000 lumens), two on FOH catwalk, 4 over stage, as work lights. Yeah, I know, brighter than most places. I have no idea what their heights are. I could take a swing at it, but I'd miss hard.
What we want to do: Replace all of them with LED work lights, but still have roughly the same illumination. They need to somehow work with the current Unison architectural controls, so probably dimmable via Sensor dimmers. (Sensor+... There are CEM+ v. 2.0.0 brains.) I have never programmed Unison panels before, so I don't know if they have access to more than just the dimmer racks or the first universe of DMX.
Why? We go through lamps like a baby goes through diapers. On top of that, we burn out sockets (porcelains) quickly, and they're not cheap either. This is because we use a light intended for short-term use in a very long-term application. The brightness matters, though.
I'm looking at the Altman LED work light and Kreios FLx floods as possibilities.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I don't have a budget that I've been given, so I'm just getting information right now.
Thanks. (Cross-posted to /r/techtheatre on Reddit.)
