USA - American DJ has developed the LED Bar, billed as a better way for bands, schools, churches and stage shows to create colourful wall washes. A compact bar with four heads, each containing 61 vibrant 5mm LEDs (21 red, 19 green, 21 blue), the DMX-compatible LED Bar can produce thousands of rich, saturated colors through RGB colour mixing, sas the company.

Featuring a 30° beam angle, the LED Bar's total 244 LED lamps will cover a wide surface area with dazzling colour. Yet, performers, entertainers and speakers will remain cool under its bright lights, thanks to the low heat emission of LEDs, which do not product ultraviolet or infrared rays.

Each of the LED Bar's lamps is rated for 50,000 hours of use, making mid-show bulb replacements a thing of the past. And the low power consumption of LEDs will help save energy costs and allow more units to be run on a single circuit.

"LED technology is becoming increasingly popular in all types of entertainment lighting applications, because of its many clear advantages," said Scott Davies, general manager of the American DJ Group of Companies. "The LED Bar brings this superior cutting-edge technology to musicians, stage shows, schools and churches who want an easy way to add color washes to their productions, in one compact, affordable and simple-to-operate unit."
