Heya all,
I need to replace 2 ETA dimmer packs that have died in the last 6 months or so. These are packs from the mid 1990s with both DMX and their protocal for control. The packs themselves have SSRI control and adequate chokes.
I am looking at replacing these with 6 channel packs from either Lightronics or Leprauchan. I'm looking at 6 channel packs because I am not looking at using anything beyond a 750 watt load and I have lots of 20 amp single phase power available.
The Leprachaun packs are the most expensive but boast SCR technology.
The Lightronics packs are more reasonably priced but use triacs.
All state a choked rise time of 350 ms (which is industry standard)
Thoughts?
