Theater Spots

Here you will find our large selection of theater spots and other types of spots for theater use.

Theater lamps are usually today equipped with powerful LED diodes, which with color mixing can provide everything from cool white light to a warm white like a "real" theater spot, and a theater lamp should :-)

If you choose to buy a theater lamp with a halogen bulb, you must remember to purchase the bulb, as most theater lamps are delivered without a bulb. Perhaps you should buy a couple of extra light sources since a halogen theater spot easily "uses" one or two bulbs during a normal theater season. Check here if you are looking for stage lighting

Good stage lighting is a necessity for a good performance, and conversely, it can be said that it is a shame for the performance if there is no good stage lighting.

General Use of Theater Spots

In the large theaters in Denmark and around the world, most theater spots are equipped with quartz halogen; an improvement of the original incandescent lamp, which uses halogen gas instead of an inert gas to extend the lamp's lifespan and output. Fluorescent lights are increasingly used for special effects lighting in theaters. High-intensity discharge lamps are common where very sharp and bright effects are required.

Over the last decades, LED-based theater spots of all sizes and types have been introduced to the market. Some of these spots have become very popular, while others have not been able to match the output of incandescent lamps and discharge sources, which old-school lighting designers prefer. There is a growing demand for LED spots in the lighting market and in the theater industry, and their popularity is largely due to their low energy consumption compared to current incandescent, halogen, and discharge light sources.

Safe Use of Large Theater Spots

Most places require an additional safety cable or chain to be attached between the fixture and its hook or anchoring in some other way. Some of the very large theater spots can weigh over 45 kg and are suspended very high above the artists' heads and can cause serious injury or death if they fall accidentally or are not secured or anchored properly. Should an accident occur, the safety cable will stop the theater spot's fall before it can cause serious injury. Many theaters have strict guidelines for the use of safety cables.
