City Theatrical launches LED products

20 January 2009

USA - City Theatrical has released two new LED products utilising Philips Color Kinetics LED lighting fixtures combined with City Theatrical technology.

The MasterBlast utilises a Philips Color Kinetics ColorBlast 12 TR LED lighting fixture combined with CTI's SHoW DMX wireless DMX technology to create a wireless, battery powered, LED lighting fixture with up to 10 hours of operating time. The MasterBlast's built-in stand alone routines and wireless DMX allow events to be run without a lighting console, external wireless DMX gear, or power and data cables, saving time, space, and money for the event lighting user, says the company.

The MasterBlast's user interface allows any MasterBlast to be configured as either a transmitter or receiver, as well as selecting a variety of stand alone routines and radio settings. The user interface also provides a built in battery gauge.

The iW Blast TR Lighting Kit combines the Philips Color Kinetics iW Blast 12 TR lighting fixture with a range of City Theatrical accessories. CTI has created a two channel controller that gives users control of colour temperature and intensity right on the lighting stand. These Controllers are universal voltage for worldwide use and have a built in clamp to allow attachment to any lighting stand.

The iW Blast TR Lighting Kit comes complete with three iW Blast 12 TR lighting fixtures, and a three full sets of accessories including controllers, stands, mounts, barndoors, egg crate louvers and nine different symmetric and asymmetric unbreakable polycarbonate holographic lenses.

Both the MasterBlast and iW Blast TR Lighting Kit are ETL, cETL, and CE listed, are RoHS compliant and are available through City Theatrical distributors worldwide.
