Project Overview
Opti-V® utilises the latest High Definition TV technology to create flames and sparks for a virtual fireplace experience like no other. The unique and patent protected design combines ultra realistic flickering flames with three dimensional LED logs that sporadically spark! With the addition on an audio element of crackling logs, the illusion of a real fire is complete.
The perfect blend of magic and realism - Opti-V is the most unbelievable flame effect yet.

Project Innovation/Need
Using a unique and patent protected1 combination of real fire footage displayed on a High Definition LCD screen and a clever illusory technique, the Opti-V renders scenes of flickering flames dancing on a vertical fuel bed with an almost three dimensional depth of field.
With the addition of an audio element of crackling logs, the illusion of a real fire – and all at the running cost of a light bulb!
Sustainability
Dimplex electric fires have many energy saving benefits which not only save money but will help reduce your carbon emissions as well.
All Dimplex electric fires are 100% efficient at point of use, so no heat is wasted.
With OptiV the ‘flames’ can also be used independently of the heating, so you can enjoy the cosiness of the flames on those dark but mild spring and autumn evenings, or when the central heating is on, without overheating and only costing the same as a few light bulbs.
