Blackwire Designs, a distributor in the custom installation and pro AV markets, has announced its participation as an exhibitor at the upcoming CEDIA Tech Summits in Florida and Texas.
With a spotlight on the Blacklight Design Tool — the recent winner of the CEDIA Best New Software Product Award and Residential Systems Best of Show Award — these premier industry events will serve as a crucial platform for dealers to connect with Blackwire and discover seamless, comprehensive solutions that keep installers and end users satisfied.
“Our first CEDIA Expo as an exhibitor was a huge success and we are excited to continue conversations with our valued dealers and start new ones,” says Kevin Luther, owner of Blackwire Designs.
“The CEDIA Tech Summits provide the perfect opportunity to deepen our relationships within the industry and showcase our commitment to innovation. And with our award-winning Blacklight Design Tool leading the charge, home technology professionals will soon discover that the old way of designing, pricing, and installing a linear lighting system is now officially over.”
The Blacklight Design Tool is a comprehensive design software for linear LED lighting. Available exclusively to all Blackwire customers at no additional cost, Blacklight boasts that its software simplifies each step of the linear lighting design process. Users can seamlessly import their installation site’s floorplan and effortlessly sketch out each fixture. The tool then arranges, configures, prices, and generates a purchase order for the customized lighting system design, including all necessary equipment and electrical calculations. With built-in error correction, Blacklight says that it is minimizing the risk of errors, ensuring quick pricing and installation documentation. Additionally, Blacklight generates comprehensive installation reports for each fixture; the software supports one-click PDF exports that combine these reports with manufacturer spec sheets for all project components, and the software offers direct links to Blackwire’s store for straightforward pricing, real-time stock availability, and purchasing.
