Rotorua LED Panel Hire

LED panels have grown in popularity in recent years, as they offer significant benefits over traditional lighting equipment. They offer a way to create different moods and lighting effects that contribute to making your occasion a more memorable experience.

So, what exactly are LED panels and how can they help with your event? You might have heard the term ‘wall washer’ when it comes to LED panels. This term is used to describe two types of lighting fixtures – one used in performance lighting and the other used in building lighting.

An LED wall washer in a performance lighting setup is a rectangular arrangement of several LED lights used to evenly light a wall. In a building, an LED wall washer is a recessed lighting fixture mounted in the ceiling that also provides even lighting to a wall.

Each LED light emits a single colour, and you can choose to use mixed lights for multiple colours. In addition to colour changes, a performance LED panel used in productions or a dance club, for example, may include effects that sequence light movement and flashing patterns. You can control the lights easily with either a single remote control or by using a compatible DMX desk or software.

LED panels are a more sustainable option compared with traditional lighting. They are efficient and last longer, averaging a lifespan of around 50 thousand hours. They also use less power to create an equivalent amount of light as an incandescent light bulb.

4 benefits of LED panel lights

  1. Brightness. This is one of the key features of panel lights, as their design includes a reflective panel that produces very bright outputs.

  2. Longevity. In theory, LED lights can last up to 100,000 hours, which makes them extremely durable compared with traditional event lighting.

  3. Adjustability. LED lights within a panel light can be easily adjusted and controlled to suit the effect you want. Unlike traditional lighting, you also don’t have to worry about radiation, as LED lighting is more friendly on the eyes and it doesn’t emit any radiation.

  4. Robustness. Traditional lighting is usually made from tungsten glass; however, LED panel lights are made from a hard resin. This makes them resistant to knocks and shocks and they can adapt more easily to varying temperatures.

LED panels available for hire

LED panels that Event Production Services offer for hire include:

  • Indoor LED Par

  • Outdoor LED Par

  • Fanless ShowPro LED Sunstrips

  • ShowPro LED FusionBar QXII

  • ShowPro Dreamfest Festoon

Indoor and Outdoor LED Par lights provide all the benefits of low running costs and long lamp life, as well as eliminating most heat output. Heat reduction alone is a significant factor that benefits stage performers or live musicians, who are exposed to production lighting for long periods of time.

An LED panel light source not only saves energy, but it also let you mix more variable light colours. The space colouring is also more natural, uniform, and clear, which helps create better stage lighting effects.

  • The ShowPro LED SunStrip features 10 x 10W warm white LEDs in a slimline bar that are individually controllable when used with a compatible DMX desk or software.

  • The ShowPro LED FusionBar QXII is a pixel-mappable IP65-rated LED batten that produces deep, saturated, perfectly mixed colours for wall grazing and dynamic linear washes and effects. Its 15 x 10W RGBW LEDs with mounting brackets allow fixtures to be flown or floor mounted.

  • The ShowPro Dreamfest Festoon is a 15m RGB IP-rated LED string lighting system that replicates the feel of vintage event lighting. Both the string and individual bulbs are IP54 rated for temporary outdoor use so the colourful warmth of this effect can benefit events indoors or outdoors.

  • ShowPro Dreamfest 15m RGB Festoon IP65 is completely pixel-mappable for ultimate show and programming creativity, and the built-in automated programs create complex looks in seconds.
