We have a lot of experience selling X3200s and Zeus systems and we know from this experience the sales of a 1300WS Einstein would be only about 5-7% of the sales of the 640WS version. I follow the Laffer Curve in the design and marketing of products and an Einstein 1300 just doesn't fit well on the curve from a cost VS income basis.
Paul, I don't know what Laffer Curve is; I have a simple question:
Based on what you said above, do you regret having offered the X3200s and Zeus options in your lineup?
I use a key light and up to 4 other lights in my shoots; the key light delivers the higher output, naturally. Given I'd want to buy 5 lights with only one of them being higher output than the rest, it would be a mistake for the manufacturer to assume that I like their more powerful key light only 20% as good as their mid-power lights and that's why I only bought one. Without that one key light I would not be buying ANY of the mid-power ones, since I want them all to match in control interface as well as color temp, accessories, support, etc.
Sincerely,
Michelle
