SGM Unveils Q-8 Spotlight: A Versatile Solution for Professional Lighting

After a challenging year and a half, the event industry is showing signs of revival, and one company is ready to embrace this new phase with open arms. SGM, a leading provider of professional lighting solutions, is optimistic about the future and is gearing up for a busy and active trade show scene once it is safe to do so.

One of the most anticipated events on SGM's calendar is Prolight + Sound 2022, where the company plans to showcase its new innovations. The launch of the Q-8 spotlight, which took place in the second quarter of 2021, is just one example of the exciting developments that SGM has been working on during the pandemic.

Despite initial reservations, the timing of the Q-8 spotlight's launch felt right. The Q-8 spotlight is not a sign that the company is expecting a sudden surge in demand for event lighting, nor is it an indication that the event industry is recovering fully. Instead, it is a testament to SGM's commitment to innovation and its belief in the continued development of the event industry in the coming weeks and months.

The Q-8 spotlight is a high-performance LED luminaire designed for versatile professional lighting use. Its key uses include architectural and entertainment lighting, outdoor and indoor events requiring powerful wash and spotlight effects, and applications demanding dynamic beam shaping and color calibration.

The Q-8 spotlight's unique features make it a standout in the industry. It utilizes eight high-power 12.5W RGBW LEDs, enabling rich, full-spectrum color mixing and intense brightness. Incorporating magnetic holographic filters, users can easily modify the beam angle on-site, creating different spreads such as 10°, 19°, 45°, or elliptical beams (horizontal or vertical shapes) without losing light intensity.

SGM's proprietary color calibration ensures accurate and consistent color rendering across units, while the Q-8 spotlight offers high flexibility with two individually controllable LED segments, enabling complex pixel effects and strobing up to ultra-high speeds. The Q-8 spotlight also provides smooth, DMX-controllable dimming curves with gamma correction for professional-grade fading and effects.

Robust overload protection and a high-efficiency power supply ensure reliable operation in demanding environments, and the Q-8 spotlight's mechanical tilt range from 0° to 190° enhances positioning versatility. The Q-8 spotlight is suitable for both mobile and fixed installations due to its IP66 rating, making it a versatile and robust combination of flood, pixel, blinder, and strobe.

SGM is not only looking forward to showcasing the Q-8 spotlight at Prolight + Sound 2022 but also to seeing its competitors and talking with them. The company feels a stronger sense of cohesion with its competitors due to the shared challenges of the past 1 1⁄2 years, and it is excited to see what new innovations its competitors have been working on.

In addition to the Q-8 spotlight, SGM is looking forward to presenting other interesting innovations it has been working on during the pandemic at Prolight + Sound 2022. The company is expanding its team to better support the new start of the event industry after the pandemic and is eager to get in touch with already known faces and new contacts at the event.

As the event industry continues to evolve, SGM remains committed to pushing the boundaries of professional lighting solutions. With the launch of the Q-8 spotlight and its upcoming innovations, SGM is poised to lead the way in providing high-quality, versatile, and adaptable lighting solutions for the event industry.
