    Philips PLCYC-1 Color Issue

    I think the PL series has calibration in the fixture to match different LED batches.

    Commercial Driver's License

    I won't hurt to have it. You don't need to tell the person who schedules trucking that you can drive. To expand on what other have mentioned. -Without a CDL you can usually drive some form of truck, typically 26,000 GVW. There is usually not any size restriction, but this varies state-to-state...

    DMX Festoon Lighting

    TMB for sure has the heavy duty version. They are a little cumbersome to address, but they hold up to a SlipKnot tour.

I see no reason why you could make an RGB fixture like in MNicolais cyc applications and just put patch breaks into a generic RGB fixture to patch your dimmers. It would be more difficult to create amber drift compensation...

    Swage v Cable clamps v verlock/griplock

    With Verlocks and griplocks, de-rating the actual cable as you would with a crimp or Crosby termination is usually irrelevant because the griplocks have a MUCH lower WLL than the cable. You should consider your limit based off the weakest part of the system; usually the griplock...
