Kremesa CR 8 / 8 Contra Helicopter Units





Huge and spectacular units from Kremesa! These are the CR 8/8 Contra helicopter units.  Each unit has 2 separate 8 head helicopter units mounted one on top of the other.  Total of 16 - 6 volt, 30 watt 4515 Par 36 bulbs are on each unit.  For a bit more power and longer life lamps the AR111 Halostar bulbs can be used.  A smaller ring of lamps is located on top and a larger ring of bulbs are located on the bottom.  Both of the rings rotate in opposite directions making a really cool effect!  The base unit contains 2 large 48 volt transformers that power each ring of bulbs.  The base also contains the motor that rotates both rings.  The motor is a high quality Kelvin motor that is mounted on it's side.  As the motor spins it moves a larger shaft one direction and another smaller internal shaft opposite direction.  It is a pretty neat design.  Unit has 3 separate circuits.  1 for the motor and 1 for each lamp circuit 2 total).  Units are very heavy due to the transformers and high quality steel constructions.  They also feature a removable tray that the main unit slides into.  This makes mounting the unit much easier.  Fixtures made in Spain.
