XL Video UK, the touring and live event video specialist, has just completed a purchase that makes it the owner of the biggest and brightest fleet of Barco DLP projectors in the UK. The order gives XL 16 of the new ultra-bright Barco ELM R18 17,500 lumen projectors and four of the new, smaller, SLM R8 projectors (7,500 lumens) which will be added to their rental fleet.

It’s the first order for ELM R18s in the UK and adds to XL’s already extensive stock of Barco projectors which currently includes Barco ELM G10s ELM G12s and SLM G5s, plus assorted smaller projectors. XL Video’s Lee Spencer comments: "Having access to such a diverse fleet of projectors allows us to offer our clients the latest in projection equipment. It also means that we can be highly competitive and still give our clients the best service whether the event is large or small, conventional or leftfield." XL Video also remains the largest operator of both Barco DLite 10 and ILite 10 LED screen in the world.

The new kit will be going into immediate action upon its arrival as XL UK’s schedule continues to be busy with current and upcoming tours including S Club 7, Gorillaz, The Chemical Brothers, Travis, Jamiroquai, Westlife and Roger Waters.
