Clay Paky Astrospider Unit
For post number 250 we made it BIG!! Big is what this unit is!! This is a Clay Paky Astrospider unit. This thing is HUGE!! Unit has 4 X 24 Volt, 150 Watt Lamps. Each lamp is located in one of the 4 large domes with 13 lenses on the exterior (Total 52). The 4 domes are connected in the center of the unit with a single motor that revolves all 4 at the same speed at the same time. The 4 heads connect through a set of plastic gears. At the base of the unit is another high torque motor to spin the entire unit. When it is all running, insanity is what you get. Both of the motors and the lamps are on separate circuits for complete control of the unit. Unit made in Italy. Thanks to my buddy Chris for this unit!

Hello!
ReplyDeleteFirstly, I'dd like to thank you for all this awesome stuff and brochures.
Secondly, I have the same astrospider which it is broken unfortunately...
One cord of the 4 lamps has been blocked as it was running, and suddenly stopped working. The last time i remember to working was back to 1991.
Since then my unit is dead...
What should I do?
By the way, I live in Greece!
Thank you again for your time. :)
Yours sincerely,
Greg
