LENEXA, Kan.  June 12, 2024 — LynTec, a wholly owned subsidiary of Chauvet and a leading manufacturer of innovative electrical power control solutions for professional audio, video, and lighting (AVL) systems, today announced the acquisition of Juice Goose, an innovative, customer-driven company that manufactures and distributes electric power distribution, conditioning, and control equipment.

“LynTec couldn’t be more excited about the reputation and deep customer relationships Juice Goose brings, with solid products that perfectly complement our existing lineup,” said Mark Bishop, president of LynTec. “Now, regardless of how big or small the installation, we have the power solution for the job, whether that’s four circuits for a conference room or 500 circuits for an arena.”

Since then, the company has developed and maintained a reputation as a reliable supplier of electric power management products, including power sequencing, power conditioning, power distribution and control, surge protection, UPS, and more, for the commercial AV market in the United States. The chosen solutions provider for houses of worship, theme parks, and a broad range of venues and facilities, the company’s products are easy to install, convenient to use, and reliable.

Chauvet Expands US Operations With New Las Vegas Facility

SUNRISE, FL – Chauvet has doubled its capacity to serve customers in the west region of the US by opening a 35,000 square foot satellite facility in Las Vegas. The new office-warehouse-service center complex is twice the size of the company’s West Coast Burbank, CA satellite facility that it will be replacing on Aug 10th .

“Our investment in a new, larger and more technologically advanced facility reflects our commitment to this industry – and our belief in its future,” said Albert Chauvet, CEO of Chauvet. “Being in Vegas will enhance the level of service we’re able to offer our customers.”

Combined with the company’s Global Headquarters in Florida, the new Vegas operation gives Chauvet the capacity to ship to any point in the 48 contiguous United States within three days, maximum.

The Las Vegas facility will stock CHAUVET Professional, Iluminarc, CHAUVET DJ and ChamSys products. Modeled closely after the company’s East Coast operations, the satellite facility is actively recruiting and will host technical support, sales, demo/training programs, quality control and shipping operations.

Although the Chauvet Las Vegas facility is new, it will be staffed by many familiar faces. General Site Manager Todd Bearden has made the move from California to Nevada, as have Warehouse Lead

Mark Guzman, Sales Support Specialist Elizabeth-Aye-Darko, and Repair Specialist Brandon Cooks. They will be joined by a professional local service, support and warehouse staff.


“The strength of any company begins with its people, so I am proud and gratified that there are key team members that are joining us in Las Vegas,” said Chauvet. “We’re looking forward to building a great future together there and will be ready to serve our US customers as the pandemic passes and business grows.”
