Frequently asked questions
What is the main optical difference between these two diffusers?
The Flat Smoked Diffuser has a 160-degree viewing angle optimized for focused area coverage, while the Square Diffuser features a 300-degree viewing angle for wider, more uniform light distribution. The 140-degree difference makes the Square Diffuser significantly better for large-venue applications requiring seamless coverage.
Which diffuser is better for touring versus fixed installations?
The Square Diffuser is marketed specifically for touring and large fixed installations where broad coverage matters. The Flat Smoked Diffuser is positioned for theater, broadcast studios, and performance venues with defined stage lighting needs, typically smaller or more controlled spaces.
Are both diffusers made from the same material?
Yes, both use polycarbonate construction that provides optical clarity, impact resistance, and heat tolerance. The key difference is the smoked finish on the Flat model versus the unspecified finish on the Square model, which affects light distribution characteristics rather than durability.
Will either diffuser reduce light output from my VDO Sceptron fixtures?
The Flat Smoked Diffuser is described as maintaining fixture light output and color temperature while controlling spread. The Square Diffuser softens and disperses light for uniform output but does not explicitly address total output preservation.
