[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 83893, member: 162"] Re: Replace PAR56 Side Prong Fixtures with LED PAR While this is true, if they are stage lights, they are likely on only a few hours a day, or possibly a few hours a week. I work in a downtown hi-rise, where electricity effectively costs $.40/Kwh - $.10 for the electricity and $.30 for the cooling to remove the heat. We just got done replacing 800 PAR 38 fixtures with Philips EnduraLED, and the payback - especially since our energy company subsidizes the bulbs - is less than 12 months. It seems unlikely that this is the OP's situation. One other issue is the heat load of the punters at the event - it doesn't take many people dancing in a room to make 2400w of heat, making this small amount of lighting probably a minor factor in cooling required.
