    Conventional Fixtures LED House Lighting

    Hello,I posted this thread (http://www.controlbooth.com/threads/led-house-lighting.37271/#post-322841) a little while back and haven't entirely decided how to fix my issue. LED bulbs that are not dimmable were used to replace the incandescents.Other than dimmers or other devices fixing this...

    Conventional Fixtures LED House Lighting

    Ok I have a couple more questions then:Lets say I can't rewire and split circuits. Is there a step up from the DMX8DIM, that handled more power?Also for general knowledge's sake, why do LEDs behave like this? Each output on my dimmer pack is rated for 2000W. Let's say i plug in an S4 that...

    Thank you for the reply! You actually cleared things up quite well. Our dimmer packs are in fact rackmounts, which in turn does mean self-contain and not user-serviceable.Let's say I have 40 LED fixtures that each needs 10 W. They're all on the same circuit giving me a grand total of 400W. I...

    For the sake of learning, what is a retrofit module?What do you mean by adding up the LED loads? Is that literally finding out how much power they take up together? What would be an adequate substitution if my dimmers turn out to need more than 250 W?

    Thank you for the reply!! A couple questions: What is a reverse phase ELV? Also which manufacture would recommend the dimming (dimmer packs or LEDs)?Also idk if it's worth mentioning, but we've currently got NSI DDS 9800s as our dimmer packs and a GrandMA1 as our main console

    Conventional Fixtures LED House Lighting

    Hi,Recently my church maintenance team decide to go forth with an LED house lighting project. Unfortunately they didn't consult me and now we have issues.They converted all house bulbs to LED. Our 60 watt incandescents were replaced with their LED counterparts (i dont have a specific model)...

    Control/Dimming GrandMA1 Full-size or GrandMA2 Ultra light

    Hi,So as stated in the title, I have the choice between the MA1 full size console or the MA2 ultra light console. The MA1 is less expensive than the MA2.Which one would be more worth it?? I've never programmed on an MA2, only the MA1. Is the learning curve large?? I know the MA2 is an...

    Control/Dimming Dimmer Packs

    There are no issues with them as of right now and they are permanently mounted, but I actually need to expand. I'm renting lights for a show and I'll definitely need more packs.Over the next few months/year I'll be permanently expanding my fixture inventory. When this happen's, I'll need more...

    Control/Dimming Dimmer Packs

    So I currently have 6 NSI DDS 9800 dimmer packs.I've had them for quite a while and I have a couple questions: - When is a good time to look for replacements? - What would be a good replacement? (I'm looking for similar wattage and 8+ outlets)I did some research and came across: -ETC...

    SILENT Haze machine

    One thing i dont like about the HZ-350 is that it only has 1 output amount. I cant say "put out haze at 25%". It only puts out 100% or 0%.Ive seen videos of the radiance. It looks powerful. That haze is thick, which means my video guys wont like it too much unless i can control its output...

    SILENT Haze machine

    Oh i see. if thats the case, how much carbon dioxide and haze does a hazer like that use up? How long does it last? How expensive is it to maintain
