In this Haunter’s How-To update, we look at the LED Shadow™. This light is a blacklight panel wash that delivers stunning effects. Unlike the days of the long, fluorescent tube blacklights, the Shadow is a lot more flexible with the type of lighting it offers. It can do, of course traditional blacklight tones, but the built-in auto programs allow the LEDs to flash and strobe in patterns.
What is interesting about this particular piece of equipment is the low power usage. Giving off a ton of night, the light panel uses little energy , perfect for home haunts. It is fitted with 192 ultra violet LEDs averaging 100,000 hours of operation. The diodes are enclosed in a sleek, 2.5″ thin plastic and aluminum panel. Total weight is less than 5 lbs.
The Shadow offers three channels of DMX control of dimming and strobing capabilities as well as the activation of preset programs. All functions can also be triggered in stand-alone mode via dip switches.
Where can you use this light? pretty much anywhere. The LED Shadow incorporates two sturdy brackets (for clamp and wall mount) and one extra power output to daisy chain units. For a more complete mobile show, this distinctive blacklight can also be linked to the LED Techno Strobe featuring all white strobing LEDs and the LED Techno Strobe RGB with full color mixing. All three fixtures are capable of performing chasing patterns.
