Blonde light
Also known as blonde, blondie, 2K blonde.
Traditional name for a 2,000-watt open-face tungsten fixture, especially an Italian-made design used for broad, hard output.
In practice
Crews may say “blonde” generically, but fixture construction and ratings differ. Confirm the model, voltage, lamp, stand, heat clearance, and circuit capacity before use.
