    Hi,

    I am new member Alex Milne. I have been involved in amateur theatre for close to 60 years. Recently I was chosen to volunteer as the lighting designer for a small group here in Ottawa, Canada Last week we acquired some Colortran ellipsoids model no. 213-075. I came upon your site when looking for information on these units and found a very interesting thread right on my subject. I am going to follow up on the various suggestions made as I am also interested in how to change the beam angle on these units. When received they were equipped with 1K bulbs. In order to meet the output of our dimmer packs I would like to rebulb them with 575W bulbs. Any experience or comments on that?

    Thanks,
    Alex

    Welcome, Alex. We're very pleased you found information here helpful.

    We try to keep "shop talk" out of the new member area, so I've added a post to this thread: http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/l...tml#post142299.
    Good authors too who once knew better words, Now only use four letter words, Writing prose.
