High End Systems Showgun

The SHOWGUN® and SHOWGUN® 2.5 fixtures from High End Systems are high powered automated lights that can project images, change and mix dichroic colors, and switch from hard-edge to soft-edge all within a compact system. SHOWGUN output is 100,000+ lumens and SHOWGUN 2.5 produces 130,000 lumens. Both models provide high-energy focused or soft edge washes and gobo projection with a 10 inch (250 mm) output beam, and an innovative LED Tracking System.
A new patent pending optical design incorporates a proprietary, optically accurate polymer microfresnel lens allowing both SHOWGUN models to produce a true focused hard-edge or a soft-edge combination, without the need for two separate fixture types. The true focused hard- edge allows SHOWGUN fixtures to project High End Systems Lithopattern images, while the soft-edge abilities exceed industry standards. Soft edge/hard edge “enabling” for SHOWGUN fixtures is easily accomplished from any lighting console.
The SHOWGUN LED Tracking System is a homogeneously mixed RGB LED circular array that you can match to the color of the main output beam, or use to project a complementary color by mixing RGB values. Producing over 5000 lumens of output, the LED Tracking System works in tandem with the SHOWGUN fixture’s other features.
All SHOWGUN models use short arc metal halide lamps with a FastFitTM socket design that allows for a more compact reflector combination. The SHOWGUN fixture’s main output uses a 2000 watt lamp. The SHOWGUN 2.5 model uses a 2800 watt lamp with a guaranteed lamp life of 1250 hours.
