Lampo Titanus Unit


Awesome unit from Lampo!  This is the Titanus unit which features a super bright 575 HMI discharge lamp.  Ballast, transformer and igniter are housed in the rear of the unit.  The lamp is mounted in front of a unique dish with holes punched into it with an additional dichoric dish mounted behind it.  The effect is showering beams of light that seem to flicker.  The unit is sound active with an onboard microphone.  There are adjustments for sensitivity and speed.  There is a large metal door that moves 90 degrees and acts as a douser / blackout in the front of the unit.  The douser is controlled by a Micro Motor and triggered from external controller via the 1/4" connection on the rear of the unit.  All of the controls are mounted in a box located on the rear of the fixture.  A super high velocity fan keeps the unit cool.  Fixture made in Italy.

t.a.s. Mini-Contact Units



Interesting set of units from t.a.s.  These are the Mini-Contact scanner / color changer units from t.a.s.  These units use the same housings as the Coemar Baby Color units but use a different color changing system and add a scanner mirror on the end of the light aperture.  Each unit operates independently with it's own control system.  The light source is a common 120 volt, 250 watt ENH lamp.  Inside of the base of each unit the step down transformer for the motors and lamp is housed.  Mounted to the external part of the base is a 3-way selector switch, microphone and adjustment potentiometer.  The selector switch has constant motors on, motors off and sound active motor rotation.  Located inside of the main head assembly is the bulb, dichoric color wheel, color wheel motor, cooling fan and control PCB.  There are 5 colors plus white produced from the unit.  The output is scanning beams of light with sound response or constantly moving.  Great units made in Italy.

SGM Ray Scanner 400


Great one from SGM.  This is the Ray Scanner 400 unit.  It features  36 volt, 400 watt EVD lamp with a multi-color dish mounted behind it.  The dish rotates to the beat of the music producing a brilliant cluster of light.  The light produced shoots out of a large convex lens then onto a large mirror that also moves to the beat of the music.  This moves the cluster of light around the room.  I believe this unit was modified from its original operating condition as it appears there was an additional motor that would add an additional movement on the scan mirror for an 'X and Y' axis movement.  It looks to be removed and a motor bracket attached where the mirror is currently.  Both motors are attached to the same sound circuit so the move at the same time.  Music triggers from a microphone on the rear of the unit and is adjustable with a potentiometer.  Unit is fan cooled and made in Italy.
