Whitney,
Thank you for the recommendation. How did you mount them? I see that
Altman offers track adapters for Halo, Juno and Lightolier track
configurations. If you used one of those options, how did it work?
(This baby is quite a bit burlier than most track fixtures, so I was
wondering if the adapter is up to the task.) As the architect is
currently favoring LSI equipment, I am also curious about that option.
(I have heard that LSI will put their wand on the fixtures of other
manufacturers if asked.) Any feedback?
Ken
