Superstar Lighting ME9800-1 Diablo Lighting Effect Units




Great units from Superstar Lighting.  These are the ME9800-1 Diablo UFO / saucer units.  Both units feature a common 120 volt, 300 watt 64514 halogen lamp located in the center of the saucer head.  The whole saucer rotates from the base unit.  The output is 8 large round multi-color beams rotating in a circle formation.  Very cool looking in fog.  I plan to add an additional motor to the top of each unit for additional rotation.  The motor source is 12 volts DC so that is why there is a small transformer and rectifier circuit in the compartment where the motor is located.  Great units made in Taiwan. 



















Lightcraft 412 Mini Control Center



Great compact controller from Lightcraft,.  This is the 412 Mini Control Center that is used for effect lighting units and also units that would be chased such as pin spots and par cans.  This unit has 8 different outputs that connect to Lightcraft relay packs. 4 of the outputs have standard on / off toggle switches and 4 have 'Bump' buttons.  These outputs would be for effect light units. There is also another output to a dimmer or relay pack that would be used for chasing. That output is from the knobs / switches on the top of the unit.  You can adjust speed and how the chase responds to the sound with the adjustments.  Total of 12 output channels from this unit.  Cool unit made in the US.

Superstar Lighting SL-P5W-1




Great unit from Superstar Lighting.  This is the SL-P5W-1 unit that is similar to the PSL Randomscan unit.  This is a bit more primitive and lower power.  The fixture has 4 X 12 volt, 50 watt MR16 units that can be used with or without gobos to produce the beam effect. The light shoots through the gobo, then through a color filter and lens assembly then finally onto a rotating mirror assembly.  Each of the 4 mirrors are sound active so when the beat of the music is heard by the unit the mirror motors respond with rotation.  Great unit made in Taiwan.
