[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 31472, member: 162"] Re: Blizzard Puck Q12 series LEDs That's encouraging! I've done more research, and it seems that the RGBA is 9700 lux at 1 m, and the RGBW is what Will from Blizzard quoted at "probably 12000 lux". Hopefully that's just due to the color difference between the 4th diode and for all colors other than white the RGBA will be equivalent to the RGBW. For comparison, their Puck3 RGB has 9 3W diodes making 6500 lux 1m. I'm guessing that the "120 watts" of LED capability aren't fully driven in the new Q12s and/or or these 10W diodes aren't nearly as efficient. It's a little hard to guess from incomplete specs, but the fixture input power claims to be 56W. Other fixtures that have translatable brightness numbers (all fixtures are roughly 25 degree beam angle): Elation DLED 36 Brick - 3850 lux 1m Elation DLED Tri-brick - 2720 lux 1m Elation Opti Tri 30 - 6490 lux 1m Elation Opti Tri PAR - 4250 lux 1m Blizzard The Puck (the one I think Tim referred to) - 3920 lux 1m Blizzard Rocklite RGBAW - 23700 lux 1m Martin Stagebar 54L (the old one) - 6000 lux 1m (1/2 peak number is 29 degrees, 1/10th peak is 55 degrees) ColorKinetics Colorblast 12 22 degree frosted - 2880 lux 4' (269 fc) ColorKinetics Colorblast TR 23 degree frosted - 14400 lux 4' (1347 fc) Mike Pyle hooked me up. I ordered one which will be delivered hopefully the end of the month-ish. [/QUOTE]
