When many customers consult the editor of Shining, the most common question is "Should I buy led moving head lights or beam moving lights?" or "What lights should I buy?"
Although I am very happy that customers can refer to the comments of the editor, the answer to the question is more about your needs, rather than making a general statement! In this article, the editor will explain in detail what type of stage lights are needed for a stage lighting system and how to determine the specific needs of buying suitable stage lighting equipment.
Most customers first consider their budget and plan their purchases based on the funds they must spend. All this is good, but it often leads to customers regretting the purchase, whether it is because they bought a stage light fixture that is too expensive, a stage light fixture that is too cheap, or just the wrong moving head light! On the contrary, I hope that customers will first look at the convenience, durability and ease of use of stage lighting fixtures. 1. Convenience Different stage lights are installed in different ways, and the disassembly process is also different. How easy is it to set up and remove the lamp? Does it use 5-pin DMX or 3-pin DMX, how does it compare to other lights? How heavy is this light, is it suitable for one person to install, or does it need an assistant? For example, a Chauvet 4 bar system is very easy to install, and 4 lights can be installed within the normal time of installing 1 light. This may be your right choice. But it may not be the best value of the installation location! Another example is that the 4bar lighting kit has only 3-pin DMX. At this point, you must carry the adapter with you just to connect your lights together, which is very inconvenient.
2. Durability How strong is your equipment? The editor found an interesting phenomenon, whether it is concert stage lighting fixtures or church lighting fixtures, the lighting engineer who uses them will always take care of them gently. Or will your lights be installed and moved only once a year, or even less? Does it matter if there is only a cheap plastic box or a metal object is needed? Generally speaking, the more expensive the lamp, the longer the shell and wick will last. When I am looking at LED moving head lights or led psr lights, I prefer to buy lights with fanless designs or with quality fan, which will reduce the breakdown of moving parts! While considering durability, I also want to see the warranty period of this light. I really want to see if the stage lighting manufacturer really believes that the lamp is enough to guarantee that it will not die immediately! For this reason, the editor of Shining LED Lighting Limited does not recommend people to buy any lamps with less than one year warranty. Yes, you may pay a little more, but it is totally worth it.
3. Ease of use When the lighting designers sit down to program the lights, will the light fixture work with the console? Does the lamp have a function linked to the programming system? Does its brightness match your other stage lighting equipment? In the purchase process, this is a very good reference standard. Choose some stage lights that meet your needs, and then choose a variety of different fixtures for comparison. Regardless of the price, you need to consider that we will try these stage lights in our work. Once you have considered these basic aspects of lighting needs, it is time to delve into budget, coverage, and accessories.
This is the end of the article. The editor of Shining LED Lighting Limited sincerely hopes that you can buy stage lighting fixtures that you are satisfied with. At the same time, I hope this "Buying Guide" can give you more thoughts on the purchase of stage lighting fixtures.
