Nights Of The Jack Halloween Experience Brought To Life By ADJ IP65 Fixtures

Over 200 of ADJ’s 12P HEX IP IP65-rated wash fixtures, as well as a host of ADJ atmospheric effect units, are currently being used to bring to life the Nights Of The Jack Halloween experience. This family-friendly event, hosted at the King Gillette Ranch in the Santa Monica mountains of Los Angeles, features a vast number of intricately hand-carved and illuminated jack-o’-lanterns spread across a half-mile trail.

The substantial task of illuminating this vast temporary display has been entrusted to CBC Technical. Using both the site’s historic buildings and large trees as backdrops for the pumpkin displays, the CBC Technical team needed a powerful and flexible wash fixture to illuminate large areas with a variety of vibrant colors. After extensive research they selected ADJ’s 12P HEX IP, which is a heavy duty IP65-rated LED par fixture that is popular with lighting professionals working on outdoor events and installations. With a 30-degree beam angle, it features 12 potent 12-Watt 6-in-1 HEX LEDs to allow a far-reaching throw and unrivalled color mixing potential.

“We were looking for an IP-rated fixture that could survive the outside elements for the full six week run, without having to deal with constantly replacing fixtures,” explains CBC Technical’s president and CEO, Chris Batchelor. “We chose the ADJ 12P HEX IP because of its bright, colorful output as well as its impressive throw. And we definitely made the right choice! We’ve been very impressed by it; we like the dimming curve, the even beam spread, the output… basically it ticks off every box we would want our fixtures to check off. It’s also proven reliable, we used 100+ last year and they worked so well we added another 100 for this year’s production. Moisture from the ocean, occasional rain showers and the sprinklers used to water the grass and trees, not to mention dirt and dust on the ground, all put the IP rating of the fixtures to the test on this project, but they have performed flawlessly.”

In addition to the use of 200+ 12P HEX IP fixtures to provide colorful wash lighting throughout the site, CBC Technical also provided 10 of ADJ’s H2O DMX IR water effect projectors for the Spongebob Squarepants and underwater areas. Powered by an 80W LED source, this distinctive effect projector uses a pair of textured glass wheels to simulate the appearance of flowing water. It is ideal for theatrical applications, as well as for creating an exciting atmosphere projected onto the walls, ceiling or floor of an entertainment venue.

As well as supplying lighting fixtures, the CBC Technical team have also deployed a variety of atmospheric effect generators around the Nights Of The Jack site to enhance the interactive nature of the display. Bubbles are a perennial kid’s favorite and, thanks to 12 of ADJ’s Bubbletron XL machines, thousands of them can be found filling the air throughout the King Gillette Ranch. Featuring an extra-large, durable plastic casing with EZ-access front fluid tank, the machine features dual high-velocity fans that cause the bubbles to rise quickly into the air as soon as they are created. Strategically-positioned around the jack-‘o-lantern trail – so they appear to pour from a turtle’s mouth, for example – each of these high-output units is capable of generating 100s of  bubbles every minute.

Smoke effects are also used to add to the spooky atmosphere, provided by 8 of ADJ’s VF1600 fog machines. Each of these portable, yet powerful, atmospheric generators feature a 1500W heating element which allows them to output up to 20,000 cubic ft. of fog per minute. The machine boasts an Electronic Thermo Sensing (ETS) system for optimum heating levels as well as a low fluid shut off circuit to protect the pump. It has a large 2.3 Liter fluid tank, a high-efficiency heater block that reduces residue and is supplied with both a wired timer control and wireless remote for convenient triggering in a wide variety of applications.
