Elation Introduces New Level Q7/Level Q7 IP Flat-Style Professional-Grade Pars

	Elation Professional Level Q7 IP LED Par

Elation Professional has designed a new LED par for the professional stage and production market. This professional grade, compact "flat-style" LED par series features two models, the Level Q7 and Level Q7 IP.

Housed in an ultra-low-profile case and weighing under 9lb., these little pars offer RGBW color mixing, a narrow seven-degree beam angle/13-degree field angle, an efficient optical system, a 100,000-hour quad-color RGBW 15W LED engine by Osram, and an impressive array of professional features.

Available in both indoor (Level Q7) and outdoor (Level Q7 IP) models, the Level Q7s contain seven high-output 15W four-in-one (red, green, blue, and white) LEDs. Their quad-color LED lamps can create an infinite palette of rich, smooth colors, free of RGBW multi-color shadows, producing a powerful output for their size -- up to 3,636 LUX at five meters.

Ideal for stage/wall washing, truss toning and uplighting, the Level Q7s are more than just LED color-blending fixtures. They're equipped with a full complement of design tools and special effects that give them the vitality and versatility to do double-duty creating dynamic lightshows at nightclubs, discos, concerts, and productions. Among these features are a rainbow effect, strobe/pulse effect, 0-100% theatrical grade dimming, and eight auto-program chase macros. The rugged, die-cast aluminum case features power/data linking via Neutrix five-pin DMX and power-con in/out connections. They also come with a gel frame and holder kit for even more flexible options. Additionally the Level Q7 IP model comes with IP67-rated power/data linking cables, and the case is rated at IP65 to withstand dust and rain, making it perfect for outdoor shows and events, as well as lighting up landscapes and building exteriors.

Although new on the market, Level Q7s have already been chosen to illuminate some impressive venues, including the exclusive Mar-A-Lago resort/club in West Palm Beach, Florida, owned by Donald Trump, which recently installed 24 Level Q7 IP units supplied by Garrett Production Group of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. "The initial reception to the Level Q7s among designers and end-users has been fantastic," said Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional.

"These versatile little pars offer exactly what today's lighting pros want in terms of brightness, RGBW colors, and features. With their flat, low-profile, lightweight case, they fit into any design. They can be hung overhead or placed on the ground for uplighting, and they give you an exciting mix of tools for achieving your creative vision. The power/data linking is also great for providing clean and fast installations."

The Level Q7 and Level Q7 IP are also very user-friendly and maintenance free. Equipped with five-pin DMX in/out, they can be operated in four DMX channel modes (four-, five-, seven-, and nine-channel). A convenient four-button control panel on the rear makes it easy to scroll through DMX, manual or auto settings. With an extended LED life rated at 100,000 hours, they are sure to perform well for many years to come.

Both Level Q7 models also include PowerCon in/out and offer multi-voltage operation: AC 100-240V, 50/60Hz. Each unit measures a compact 11"L x 5.6"W x 10.2"H/ 278.6 x 140.5 x 260 mm, and weighs 8.9lb. / 4kg. CE and cETLus approval are pending.
