Elation’s busy booth at the LDI trade show in Las Vegas in early December featured a pair of invitation-only IYKYK events for lighting professionals. The IYKYK events (an acronym for If You Know You Know), held in the Rose Ballroom at Resorts World, provided a sneak peek of what lighting pros can expect from the Elation portfolio in 2024 with new technology products across several upcoming lines on hand for initial feedback and demo.
“That was one of the busiest trade shows I’ve experienced in quite some time!” enthuses Elation Global Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Eric Loader. “Our booth was consistently packed and our new products were very well received, especially the new Proteus series fixtures and the new fanless Fuze Teatro. We also surprised some people by showing the first fixture in our new Sol line of versatile blinder effects and new Pulse line of strobe bars and the feedback was outstanding. We had an overwhelming response to our IYKYK events which attracted hundreds of professionals across the lighting community and surpassed all our expectations so overall the show was a resounding success.”
Elation's Proteus, Fuze, and KL lines saw premier product launches at LDI, including the Proteus Hybrid MAX, a next-gen hybrid fixture, the Proteus Odeon with a variable CRI LED engine, and the Proteus Radius, a high-intensity Beam FX fixture. Theatre professionals were drawn to the Fuze Teatro, a fanless framing fixture for silent operation, while the KL CYC cyclorama/set/wall wash garnered steady customer interest. Two new series of versatile Par color changers, the Six+ Par, an upgrade of the SixPar; and the Limelight Par, a full-color mixing wash luminaire. The first fixtures in a new Sol line of versatile blinder effects and Pulse line of new strobe lights also debuted.
Designers, programmers and operators also made their way to the Obsidian booth to check out the brand’s line of NX consoles, as well as a full line of NETRON data distribution products. Obsidian also gives a shout out to Parker Buckley and Ashton D'Avanzo, who secured an LDI Battle of the Busk Jaw Dropper Award using an Obsidian NX4 console.
