Hi All,
Please forgive me if this question shows my naiveté I just have never projected a Gobo this large before. A client needs a full color glass Gobo of his logo to be projected 20' in diameter. I was thinking of using a Source 4 with 90 degree lens so we can get that 20' projection from only about a 12' throw. My question is I have been looking at both Source 4 750 watt units as well as the Source 4 HID 150 watt units. According to their cut-sheet they appear to be very close in specs and light output. Would anyone recommend one over the other? I understand the HID is about double the price of the original Source 4, the bulb will last longer, and draw less power, but is there any other reasons to pick the more expensive HID over the 750 watt? Any information would be great!
Thanks in advance.
Best,
Bill
