LED Screen Solutions / Mobile LED screens vs Modular LED Screens

Mobile Screens vs Modular Screens

Mobile LED screens have revolutionised the LED screen rental market in recent years, offering a far more convenient and cost effective solution for most applications, and giving event organisers a simpler and far more flexible service.	Mobile	Modular
Setup Time	< 30mins	6 hours +
Setup Procedure	Arrival on-site, driver/operator remotely controls hydraulics to erect screen, switches processor on.	Scaffold company erects framework, LED screen company builds modular screen, then wires and winches into place from framework, before testing and setting up feed.
Manpower required for Setup	1	Minimum 5 (including structure build)
Power	On-board generator (included in cost)	Needs separate power supply.
Size	10m², 12m², 15m², 25m², 40m², 60m², 100m².	Multiple sizes, but very difficult, dangerous, time consuming and costly to go above 60m².
Production Suite	All iCONICS come with on-board playout facilities. Many with full outside broadcast, multi-camera broadcast facilities.	No. Separate outside broadcast suite required.
Wind Loading	All iCONICs carry European TUV certification to wind load speeds of between Beaufort 8-9. Onboard sensors warn when levels are close, enabling quick and safe breakdown of screen Dependent on structure and conditions. Difficult to judge accurately and slow to breakdown screen should levels be.	Dependent on structure and conditions. Difficult to judge accurately and slow to breakdown screen should levels be reached.
Reliability	Very reliable due to panels remaining in fixed position on structure and no disconnecting of power and video wires etc.	Regular moving and dismantling of equipment can lead to more problems and failures on equipment.
Security Requirements	Screen can quickly be dismantled and locked within trailer in minutes each evening, so no overnight security required.	Additional security may be required in public areas overnight.
Cost	Although a far more convenient, better quality solution, Mobile screens usually work out cheaper due to: No additional power requirements Lower manpower requirements On-Board production No additional structure required Shorter rental period required	Usually more expensive than mobile solutions.
