Sunblast on tour with Håkan Hellström
- Details
The tour's lighting designer, Calle Brattberg comments: "I needed a punchy and bright strobe that could add both extra strobe effects and provide a fantastic wash with vivid colours.” Having previously used over 100 units of the Sunblast 3000 at Hellström's arena shows last year, Brattberg had full confidence in their capabilities.
Challenged by the unpredictable Swedish summer weather, notorious for its abrupt shifts in temperature and conditions, the Sunblast 3000 strobes showcased their resilience through their IP65 rating, consistently delivering. Calle Brattberg underlined their remarkable performance, emphasising their ability to shine flawlessly under ever-changing environmental circumstances.
Pontus Thorén, the tour's crew chief, praised the Sunblast 3000's robustness. "It's really a tank," said Thorén. "The lighting crew rigged and unrigged the units every day, in rain or sun, and not a single unit needed replacing over the entire summer."
