I've used BMI in a couple other places I work, unfortunately the vendor needs to have a NJ business license for me to order though the school. I hate this law.

Thank you Nick, I will give them a shot.

Hey Everyone,Our main act curtain has seen better days and we are looking to replace it. Traditionally I order from Rose Brand and there isn't a problem but this is a public school based theatre and the cost crosses a threshold where multiple quotes from business that are based in our state...

The Element 2 we ordered in December finally came in last week! Our shipment date was changed 3 times.

I am in the same exact boat. I ordered an Element 2 the first week of December though B&H and was expecting it the first week of April. It has now been pushed to some time in July. You are not the only one...

Solution! I'm posting this here for anyone in the future that searches this topic.The Eartec hub interface will only work on portacoms Channel B. To stop the system with interfering with Channel A I took the interface apart and cut wire "2" that carries 22V power and Channel A. I added an...

Thank you Les, I'll contact Steve and see if he can help.Much appreciated, Joe

And you sir are the winner! I missed that completely - They are in fact E-Series and I was looking at a different model... I'm an idiot. Looks like I may actually have to have someone come out for this.Thank you! Joe

Thanks for the advise and story Ron. Currently it only sends one of the 2 dimmer racks to full, with that in mind it doesn't always light the areas you want to be illuminated... Speaking with our buildings and grounds supervisor (who also as luck has it is on the FD in town) there is not a town...

Hey everyone,I have a pair of Colortran i96 Dimmers for a high school theatre, when the fire alarm goes off one of them is triggered into "Panic" mode and the entire rack goes to full. After tripping several times with a faulty smoke head across the building I'm getting tired of changing lamps...
