Default What's wrong in this picture?


It's called an OmniSistem PROFILE CDM PAR (OmniSistem PROFILECDM), according to this site. PROFILE CDM PAR - 19º, 26º, & 36º LENS- No lamp included.

IIRC, Omnisistem makes (or is the importer of) entertainment lasers. http://www.omnisistem.com/ They're based on Washington state. It doesn't surprise me they would start making/importing other products.

Pardon my ignorance, but what's the box inside the hanging bracket for? Is it a ballast? It appears there are xlr ports on it?

Here's what it looks like when ETC makes it... oddly they don't call it a PAR on their site. LEN the box is a ballast for the HID lamp.

Why buy ETC when the generic, eastern-manufactured copy is $10 cheaper?

Yeah that would probably be the biggest thing wrong with the picture. It's a piece of crap knock off that is priced the same as the real thing.
