Anne,
All the responses on this subject only point up the neccesity of utilizing
the services of a good museum lighting/technical consultant. The
combination of issues of supply (often based on location), specific design
requirements and maintenance/long term usage (to only touch on the tip of
the iceberg) makes it impossible to have a blanket answer to the question,
"What is the best track lighting?" Every project has its own set of
requirements that have to be considered.
Hiring a consultant is definitely an additional expense. But this is truly
a case of not being penny wise and pound foolish. Getting stuck with the
wrong lighting system for your particular needs can be at best frustrating
and at worst a huge expense to correct. Like the old auto maintenance
commercial put it: "You can pay me now, or you can pay me later." I assure
you that it is much cheaper to pay now.
As such a consultant, I obviously have a vested interest in the subject, but
I hope that this note will not be perceived as just a sales pitch.
