If Panic went out with that light (perhaps) it didn't go out with spare lamps from me at least as I do remember pulling that show's spare lamps. Is that tour still out?
I have no info on that series of lamp yet but below is at least from
Martin, the specifications I gather about it. Largest of that type of lamp
base I have notes on is a P-46s and it's a automobile headlight I believe.
Lamp type:
1200w Phillips "Fast Fit"
Halogen lamp, 300hr, 3,200K w. internal
ceramic quick twist PGJX-50 lamp
base; 1.2Kw/80v, 13,600Lum; 1.2Kw/115v, 10,900Lum; 1.2Kw/230v, 8,900Lum; 1.2Kw/240v, 8,900Lum.
Overall impression of this lamp based upon the above specs: It's not very bright... Most 1.2Kw/120-240v lamps are up in the 27,600 to 36,000
lumen range. 1.2Kw/80v lamps get up to 37,500 Lumens. I think the above
Martin info on the lamp is output from the
fixture luminous output after efficiency of the
fixture/
reflector/
lens losses. The actual lamp output I suspect would be in the 38,000
Lumen range for the 80v and
drop down from there some for each
voltage range. My guess, it should be a decent lamp. One will note that there is a 240v long life lamp for the Euro
fixture but not persay a 120v lamp for the equivolent long life lamp.
Seems like (my guess) the 80v lamp could be also be in a
ETC "
Dimmer Duplexing"
system if not using the
fixture's internal
dimmer. Use of the 115v/230-240v lamps would also be used with the "External
dimmer input" or by way of the Multi-Voltage internal
IGBT dimmer. This if not using the 80v standard internal
dimmer. You have the option if I read right to either use the internal
dimmer or a external one but you need a second
line voltage non-dim power supply to do this option. I would recommend that if you are doing a seperate feed for
line verses
dimmer power you
mark the two cables well and use different types of
plug. Say twist or
stage for the
dimmer plug and
Edison for the
line voltage.
