Using ELDT 50° LED (wide aperture 7.5") barrels on Halogen fixtures

Was hoping to hear a thought from ETC on the forum; no response.
I called ETC Tech-support; This practice is compeltely acceptable and approved by ETC. The barrels are interchangeable.

Sorry for the delay on the forums. I'm glad you got an answer from Tech Support.

In short - it's totally fine, but you may notice gels burn out quicker with the EDLT 50 LED because of optical differences.
