MIDDLETON, WI – ETC announced that its Source 4WRD PAR and Source 4WRD PARNel Fixture Bodies are now shipping. The company notes advantages in terms of both energy efficiency and brightness over ETC’s original Source Fours with conventional lamp sources. A company-produced video highlights the differences and notes that while a modular design lets customers use these components with ETC’s newer fixtures, these units are not designed to work with the company’s older legacy products.

Go LED without sacrifice – Source 4WRD PAR and Source 4WRD PARNel Fixture Bodies are now shipping! These two new fixture bodies keep everything you love about our incandescent Source Four PAR and PARNel fixtures and add the innovation of ETC’s Source 4WRD LED. You can learn about the fixture bodies in a 90-second video https://youtu.be/DaZQQYOm8Kg or keep reading for all the details.
The great wash light you’ve come to rely on with the incandescent versions of the PAR and PARNel are now even brighter. The S4WRD PAR has 126% of the output of a 750W Source Four PAR while only using 21% of the power. With wattage at a low 155w, heat is at a minimum. Add in that you no longer need to keep lamps in inventory, and it’s hard to deny the benefits of these incredibly efficient and useful fixtures.
The new Source 4WRD PAR and PARNel Fixture Bodies enable you to use the Source 4WRD LED in a whole new way, making them a great addition to any venue that already has Source 4WRDs in inventory. They also provide a great alternative for installations that previously utilized HID fixtures, providing a significantly higher lumen output with intensity control.
Both the Source 4WRD PAR and PARNel fixtures can be dimmed using a standard line dimmer or using DMX. Both fixtures are compatible with all existing Source Four PAR lenses and accessories, and did we mention they’re brighter?
