  • Lighting a Gusher?

    Posted by Richard Johnson on November 10, 2008 at 8:17 am

    Just got a project to light a water gusher at night. This is a full size replica of the first commerical oil well in Oklahoma called the Nellie Johnstone located in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.
    I need a very bright waterproof light source to light a water gusher that is about 3″ round at the nozzel but shoots upward of 60 feet.
    Fixture must be waterproof and withstand freezing temps.

    thank you,

    Contact Vari*Lite about their exterior weatherproof luminaires.
    They will have a few excellent options.
    Martin Lighting will also.

    Is this a permanent installation? or are you just lighting it to shoot it. Back light is your friend with water and you will want a low ring of (medium PAR 64) Sea PARs aimed vertically up at the water.

    Good Luck
