Forum Lighting provides their standard products with a 4-6 week lead time, and 8-10 weeks for custom fixtures. For 85% of their products they use Fortimo boards, but for the smaller profiles they have another manufacturer providing boards for them. For the sake of continuity on a project, they are able to provide the smaller boards on all of their fixtures. Dimming is standard on all LED fixtures with 0-10V. We took a look at the Alumina Series and their direct/indirect fixture fixture with fluorescent or LED on the indirect portion and track on the direct. They can incorporate most track from other manufacturers.
They also showed us their Ring LED fixture which is edge-lit. The Ring comes in sizes of 18", 24", 36" and 48". The mounting options are pendant, surface, recessed and surface standoff. The pendant version can be specified as direct, indirect and bi-directional. The power is integrated to the cable for the pendant so no extra cables are required.
A big highlight from the fixtures we saw was their Klean Edge fixture which is a cove fixture that provides the housing for the cove rather than having the contractor build it. With a clear lens for protection from dust, we could not see any pixelation from the LEDs on the wall. They can price the fixture separately with the extrusion and the light engine individually. This is a great aspect when it comes to VE stages. They can also accommodate both inside and outside corners.
