    My guess is they want to avoid RGB since the spatial offset between the diodes would result in each color being projected at a different angle by the lens. Could avoid that by using a dichroic beam combiner to put all colors coaxial, but then the beam path and optics becomes more complex/costly.

    • @Sheevlord
      @Sheevlord 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, that would be my guess as well. RGB LEDs normally don't align all colors perfectly unless diffused first. It becomes even more apparent with a collimating lens like the one in this unit.
      Another reason might be that a white LED with a color filter produces better color than an RGB LED, assuming that the white LED is good and has a reasonable CRI.

      @@Sheevlord The red end of the colour wheel is a bit less intense than the green and blue. It looks like the website does have some with full colour mixing, but it's using CMY colour wheels rather than RGB LEDs.

    • @Sheevlord
      @Sheevlord 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@sdgelectronics They could've electronically increased current through the LED when the red filter is in place to make the apparent brightness more consistent with other colors. Then again this adds complexity so they probably decided not to bother with that.

    Excellent review, thank you. I bought four of these units for a gig my daughter was doing and have to say I'm very impressed (driving them with Lightkey). I agree with the comments below regarding RGB mixing, I already own a couple of U'King moving beam heads which use RGB chips and the displacement and hence colour fringing in the beam is very evident, point them at a white wall and you can't really get a white spot at all! (They are very punchy though).

  • @jordanwaeles
    @jordanwaeles 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Some rare fixtures use RGBW clusters of LEDs and sell it as a "flower" effect, because you can see the dots of red, green, blue and white when the focus is such that you see the led engine as a projected gobo. Robe Spikie comes to mind.

      Some of the 'intelligent' lights we used to hire when I was back at school, cost in excess of £10k to buy. They didn't really do much different other than the CMYK mixing and a more powerful light source.

  • @bjornroesbeke
    @bjornroesbeke 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    It's only 10W, there's stray light inside the device and loss through the gobos. A neat light fixture but surely that 10W can't reach very far?
    I've got a couple of washes by Lixada (also sold as BeamZ) and they look very similar inside.
    Over time the absolute direction of the pan/tilt head starts to differ between fixtures, and as seems to be the case with your Betopper product, the beam can't be perfectly centered and the tilt angle on either end of the head is not equal. But all in all for the price, they're neat little things. Much, much cheaper than any other well-known brands.

    • @sdgelectronics
      @sdgelectronics  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There's minimal light loss in the optical path. Obviously there is loss when using any gobos, and the dichroic filters reflect back all the out of band light, but generally it's quit well focused. I tried it outside and the throw is quite reasonable at night - I could still see the white patterns on buildings about 50 meters away, but it's nothing like the 1.2 kW HMI fixtures I've used before.

    If this unit with all its complexity is $99, then why are simple SMPS and soldering irons twice as much? I've always suspected they are overpriced due to higher demand, and now I'm sure I'm right.
