Does elation have any basic fixed color changers that use LED's and has the ablility to be hard edge or wash?

I'm looking for something to replace the old American DJ Rainbow 250's

you really can't get a good hard edge spot with LEDs due to the rgb shadows. Without using some sort of reflector that is. I don't believe we have anything like this. But never say never. I'll take a look around and post any findings. Sincerely,

LEDs due to their nature aren't hard edged and can't become such without exotic means. And with these exotic means comes a massive drop in intensity.

Even spot fixtures with frost filters in them still don't make very good wash lights compared to wash lights. The frost also causes a drop in intensity.

I would look into LED lights anyway due do their advantages, no power draw and high output per watt. Makes them very useful in tight power situations even if you can't get them to project gobos.

Ya I understand that they are not good for spots, and I don't need to project gobos. I just want to get a beam affect and also be able to somehow change them to a wash effect if needed even if these means to get a ladder and install a lens...

If it helps does anybody know of a cheap 250 or 575 fixed light that has CMY or RGB and is also very compact?
