    DMX Cable

    Freight forwarding at that price would still be cheap as chips @techieman33 @Chris15That's a tempting proposition, or do I make my own Eurocable/Neutrik, or as somebody in the industry said to me the other day 'I've used audio cable all my career and never had one issue' - but that's a whole...

    DMX Cable

    That sounds pretty reasonable considering I've been paying $2 / metre for no name horrid stuff.Thanks @Chris15!

    DMX Cable

    Thanks @venuetech and @JDI've found a distributor for Gepco Down Under, so I'll have a look and see the price difference between it and the eurocable (Thanks @Chris15).I don't know if it's within forum rules or if you know of the top your head, but roughly how much is a 200m roll of...

    DMX Cable

    What make and model DMX cable do you use for DMX leads?All the reasearch I've currently done leads to Belden 8102, but it's grey. Canare also list another one I've seen, but it's blue. I'm trying to find a black model, something that's also not horrendously expensive :)Thanks in advance!

    110V Pars

    It's only 10 minutes across the border to NSW, I'm sure I can take my tool box and par cans and come back with some new plugs attached ;)

    110V Pars

    Right, so I think I've arrived at the conclusion that I have 6 64's that are in working order. These are 110V, so I'll make some Y-splits (hoping nobody looks too closely) and use them until the globes start to go. The other two, I'll put new ceramic bases on and make them 240V. As the 110V...

    Control/Dimming Thoughts on the Chromebook

    Chromebooks won't run .exe files, which are your windows applications. Only applications available on the Google Chrome store are able to be run on a Chromebook. I do also highly doubt (but don't quote me) that there is a magicQ version in the Chrome Store.FYI If you're looking for a really...

    110V Pars

    Thanks @theatricalmatt - I'll see how bad the other lamp bases are as to weather to replace them or not.I'm in Southern Queensland, and they've got 110V plugs on them, so round active and neutral pins. So if 110V globes are avaliable, then they'd be the way to go?

    Control/Dimming EOS 2.2 & Nomad Puck

    Has anyone else noticed that the actual Puck hardware is an Intel NUC? It's fully fledged computing hardware made by Intel, they're often used in office's as thin clients. So ETC buy a few thousand and re-lable them as there own? Considering a NUC sells for about $400 and a Nomad is $480 why is...

    110V Pars

    I've just bought 8 (second hand) 110V par 64's (I'm in Australia, source is 240V). I have one 240V series adaptor so far, but I'm yet to check out what else needs doing. I've got a few questions if anyone has answers or advice that'd be greatly appreciated!- Is it easier/more...

    QLab and Presonus Studiolive AI

    Which version of Qlab are you running? If it happens that you're running the free version, you're out of luck as they don't allow you to route to more than two outputs (Left & Right).

    Automated Fixtures Intellabeam 700HX IR Glass

    Yes, and after more research you can't buy rewire-able piggy back plugs without an electricians license any more. So normal connector it is.Thanks for all your help guys!

    Automated Fixtures Intellabeam 700HX IR Glass

    Right, so once I get them back together and working I'll run them through some tests and see what happens with the gobo and colour wheels and I'll stick to the old adage 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it'.As for the connector, I'm more after whether this or this is the correct plug type for...

    Automated Fixtures Intellabeam 700HX IR Glass

    So, I've finally got around to having a good look inside the pair of Intellabeam 700HX's that I bought last month. A couple of (hopefully) quick questions to clarify some of my findings;- From what I understand, the IR blocking glass is supposed to be split down the middle. Have a look at the...
