<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Unfortunately, there are a lot of numbers to compare -- 575 or 750W conventional, versus exactly which version of a Lustr or ColorSource?</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">From personal experience, I can tell you that the Series 2 Lustrs do quite well when comparing full intensity in open white to a 575w conventional. Their numerous side benefits (color mixing, built-in dimmer, never needing
gel or color media again) really do outweigh their drawbacks. There are a few colors that no LED fixture I've seen yet seems to be able to hit, but overall I think the benefit is very strongly toward the LEDs.</p>

<div class="PlainText">So I was looking at a spreadsheet someone built, comparing the various<br>
flavors of Source Fours (Lustres, Colorsource, incandescent), plus<br>
other LED goodies from ETC, and just looking at some sample numbers<br>
(all emitters on, 3200K, 5600K whites) it looks like both the latest<br>
Lustres and the Colorsources seem to be around 1/2 the footcandles of<br>
the old-skool incandescent Source Fours? Really?<br>
<br>
Anyone have any experiences from a side-by-side shoot-out?<br>
