Chroma-Q carbon neutral testing with Green Voltage
Mar 25, 2021
LED lighting innovator Chroma-Q has been pre-production testing in collaboration with Green Voltage zero emission generator units.
Working with a selection of Brute Force lampheads, the crew, plus Green Voltage director and experienced operator, Adam Baker (Wonder Woman 2, No Time to Die) tested the LED Wendylight alternative, together with Green Voltage’s 5kW VOLTstack E-Gen remote power systems.
The Chroma-Q product range has become a regular feature on lighting lists the world over, delivering low energy illumination to all manner of productions. Deceptive in both stature and it’s impressive output, the Brute Force draws just 15 amps @ 240V making them ideal for use in conjunction with the GV power units.
With the Brute Force running at full power, the generators provided over 2.5 hours operation. The fully dimmable LED fixture, with it’s extended CCT range between 2,000K and 10,000K, also underwent additional testing at various colour temperatures and intensities, resulting in even greater operating times.
Baker said: “I’ve worked with the Brute Force™ on a number of occasions, so am well aware of their abilities. The convenience of running the fixtures in combination with a Green Voltage power source adds an even greater degree of versatility.”
Ideal for remote use or noise restricted environments, where silent operation is essential, the Green Voltage VOLTstacks are available in 2kW and 5kW sizes, with higher output additions to the range due in the second quarter of the year. During testing, the ability to series link the generator units provided the opportunity to carry out extended runs, allowing the team to properly assess the performance of the configuration in a ‘real world’ set up.
Baker concluded: “Both the VOLTstacks and the Brute Force units have delivered strong results today. Zero emissions and totally silent with absolutely no compromise in the quality of the light output – exactly what we are looking for.”
