The combination of Wybron's award-winning Eclipse II and TMB's PowerPAR attracted a great deal of attention from New York's professional lighting community at ETC's very successful New York Open House, held on Thursday 6 December. The Eclipse II is an innovative dimming shutter that works like an iris, giving smooth even light output and consistent colour temperature at all intensities. The PowerPAR combines the convenience and optics of ETC's Source 4 Par with a high-output HMI source. Brian Dowd, TMB NY general manager says: "Many lighting designers are interested in the PowerPAR, because it is incredibly bright. They've been asking us if it is dimmable. Now we can tell them yes!"The Eclipse II received top honors for "Major Technical Advancement in the Field of Professional Lighting" from the 2001 EDDY Awards the following evening. TMB is a value-added distributor of entertainment lighting equipment, supplies and services and has been serving the professional lighting industry for over 19 years. TMB serves customers from locations in Los Angeles, London, New York and Beijing.
