Why does pricing vary so much with intelligent lighting?
As in many aspects of this business, the technology ranges from basic to complex. An entry level light may cost as little as $150 versus a high-end light which may start around $1500 and up to $5000+. In addition, some companies do not use intelligent lighting to its full potential as they use the internal programs that come with the light. In this case they are charging you for computer controlled lighting and they are just running preset programs similar to conventional lighting. When these lights are managed via a computer or controller and programmed by an experienced designer, they can truly complement your affair and give the operator the ability to enhance aspects of your venue, a first dance, etc.
