A truly amazing fixture from Griven! This is the Cruiser 1200. These were available in 575 and 1200 watt versions so this is the larger of the 2. The unit features a central large 1200 HMI double ended lamp that produced a super bright output! The beam shoots from the center of the unit then through a dual gobo wheel system that is linked together and connected with a common shaft and single stepper. From the gobo wheel the light goes through a shutter system used for strobing and blackout functions. After the shutter it bounces off a 45 degree mirror making both beams now point towards a set of convex lenses then out of the projection chassis / housing. Once the beam exits the housing it encounters arms with 2 X dichoric glass reflectors and a mirror. Each dichoric reflector and mirror has its own independent stepper and each are mounted on a large arm. Each arm has its own stepper and moves independently. The output is spectacular! It works like having 6 scanners running off one unit. The unit can run its own programs via an onboard microphone or DMX 512 from an external controller. There was also a dedicated rack mount controller made for these units but unfortunately I do not have one. A great one made in Italy!
