Was just looking through fixtures and thought I would updates some stats here.
An opinion: As I agree that there is more than just number of diodes and wattage's. Seems like the big advance came with the G2 pro. I do feel this is the next big improvement since the G2 pro. One area I would like to point out is that the light still comes from a center point and though refraction does play a role, 2 G2 pro lights will give better coverage than 1 with the new HEI lenses, in regards to shadows which kill par (obviously).
I have not been able to find the wattages of LEDs and make for G4, just how many...please let me know and I will revise.
