A narrow spot needed... in Lighting Posted June 24, 2004 Worth pointing out that Beamlights of all types are generally low voltage to keep the filament short and compact. This keeps most of the light emitting bit in the focus of the parabola. Bigger voltage/wattage PAR 36s lose the pinspot effect, you want a bigger reflector as well, and then a bigger mirrorball. Projecting a gobo on to a mirrorball will give you lots of seperate mini gobo images flying around, can be quite cute.
