Technobeam Gobo/Litho

[highschooltech]

I was asked the other day about changing the gobos inside of a technobeam which i know is possible however, i can't find if they are a custom size or they are some of the smaller standard sizes like V size. I have the dimensions for the technobeam lithos they call for a gobo that is 25mm while a V size is 25.5mm but the inside diameters for the pattern are the same. If anyone has any insite please let me know.

V size should work, half a millimeter is almost nothing. Really it's only 1/4 of a millimeter on each side. It should work fine, and worse case you just trim it a tad so it fits.

This site indicates Technobeams use V-size gobos. Here's another site that confirms: http://www.rosco.com/us/gobocatalog/support/fixture_sizes.html/. Of course, it's still a good idea to verify with your dealer when ordering. While some would call it V-sized, other would refer to it as a Technobeam gobo.

Thank you both. I saw that they used V size some where but the manual said different so i thought it would be a good way to check. Anyways thanks again for confirmation.
