Lite-Puter A410 Chase Controller



Small & cool little unit. This is a Lite-Puter A410 Chase Controller. Also sold under the American DJ brand as the CC-4000 Controller. Unit has 16 programmable chase programs which are selected from the DIP switches on the front of the unit. Unit can chase in 2 different directions via the 5th DIP switch on the front. Also if you put all of the DIP switches to the center position they chase in random sequences. There is also a speed rate control adjustment knob and a ALL-ON button for using the unit for "Punch" control. Rated for 600 watts per channel or up to 1000 watts per channel if used on a 30 amp breaker. Unit is also sound active via an internal microphone and also features an adjustment knob as well. Made in Taiwan.




VEI Triple Header



This is a Triple Header made by VEI. VEI produced most of the main stream knock offlights, but they have a couple unique lights that are pretty cool (similar to Superstar Lighting). This unit rotates at about 50 RPM and each of the 3 heads rotates 360 degrees shooting out a static multi-color moonflower effect that moves at a super high speed. Unit uses 3 - 150 watt, 24 volt FCS bulbs and 1 motor for rotation. 1 circuit operation. Unit made in Taiwan.

Lampo Derby


This is a Lampo Derby. This is a effect that has been copied and reproduced by many companies (Avenger, Etc.). This is the original that everyone copied. Unit spins 2 bulbs on the inside of the unit to the beat of the music via an internal microphone. The output is an opening, closing and criss-crossing of multi-color light beams. Unit has 2 circuits for operation. 1 for the lamps and fan and a separate circuit for the rotation motor. Bulbs used in this unit are 2 - 36 volt, 400 watt lamps. Unit is a bit heavy since it has a large internal transformer for the step-down of the voltage for the lamps. Thanks George for additional info on this light! Fixture made in Italy.

The bracket moves via a single motor inside the fixture to the beat of the music. Sound is triggered via an internal microphone. Unit has 2 motors. 1 for the rotation motor and 1 for the cooling fan.

Gemini Laser Launcher



Classic laser effect that has been copied by many. Manufactured by Gemini (whose lighting division later became LyteQuest), features a 4.95 mW red laser diode that shoots on to a sound active spinning rod that has 8 small mirrors on it. The mirrors are a bit off center from each other so it will not hit more that one mirror at a time.  The microphone has a sensitivity adjustment knob where the power goes into the unit. The output is laser beams that shoot out 1 at a time and scan a high rate of speed.  Very cool unit!
