We tested the Huracán-LT, a new monster, a legend in the making, a hurricane of light, a colossus of forgotten measurements, a new shock.

Portman has a knack for creating spectacular, modular halogen luminaires that can be used to create unique scenery, backdrops and matrix lighting effects. Their latest creation, the Mantis, takes the concept of strong design a step further and offers some new possibilities with LEDs and colors.

This spring, the brand of the yellow triangle launched two new LED moving heads: a framing spotlight and a wash, both of which are super-powered and equipped with an exclusive 1,700 W LED engine that promises exceptional luminous flux. We put the Mac Ultra Performance motorized framing spot to the test. Follow along with us.

Robert Juliat set out to find the ultimate solution that would breathe new life into the world's countless 600SX profiles, offering even better light quality. With the introduction of the Sully module last year, and the Tibo HE this year, they just might have succeeded.

Ayrton presents Eurus, a new generation of profile spotlight that benefits from the technological advances the manufacturer has implemented in its latest luminaires, as well as from a new LED engine and from further research aimed at making it more compact, lighter, brighter and quieter.

The Atomic Dot, available in cool white or warm white versions, each with dynamic Aura effects, is controlled like a video pixel by the P3 processor, as are all the luminaires in the Martin VDO family. We met with Yohan Ory, lighting application engineer at Algam Entreprises, for a guided tour of this little unit.

Following up on their Esprite – and packing into it all the same technology – Robe has launched Forte, a more powerful spot/profile with an interchangeable 1,000 W white LED source that rivals the BMFL. And we also include, at the end of this article, a field report from our colleague Tristan Szylobryt, who used it on a video shoot.

The brilliant spotlight manufacturer Robert Juliat presents Arthur, an 800 watt LED followspot, which performs neck and neck with its 2500 W HMI-lamp counterpart, Aramis. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I did say the equivalent light output of a 2500 HMI... Very few people would have believed this 10 years ago. Well, here we are...

This framing spot fixture, equipped with an 800 W white LED source, is a practical, complete and cost-effective solution for the profile market. It has already established itself in the inventories of large international rental companies. Letʼs take a look at it!

Elation is proposing this big Profile with nearly 1,000 watts of white LEDs. This complete and powerful fixture brings some significant benefits to the entertainment sector, including a framing module with unlimited rotation, and a dual 3-color mixing system.

We were eager to test Huracan-X, the top of the Ayrton Profile range in terms of luminosity, with its 1000 W of white LEDs and its tremendous graphic features, thanks to new onboard technologies for managing colors and effects.

The Robe Tetra2, an 18-source LED batten with motorized tilt and two independent zoom groups, offers multiple possibilities for very appealing effects to the lighting world. We put it to the test for SoundLightUp.

Robe delivers an intermediate power spot/profile with a white source and CMY color mixing, equipped with an interchangeable LED module that offers traceability accessible to the user.

The German brand GLP proposes this 3-in-1 fixture: a strobe, a wide and uniform RGB source and a moving light. In a market where products follow one another and look alike, it is important to be original and, above all, to provide added value.

A small fixture with a large-diameter output and vanes that are reminiscent of turbine blades, the TurboRay uses RGBW LED sources combined with special features to create truly spectacular effects. We’ve taken a look at it.
