Griven Cyclope 1200 Centerpiece Unit

Awesome centerpiece unit from Griven!!  This is the Cyclope unit which features a super bright 1200 watt discharge lamp in the center of the chassis producing a huge amount of power.  The beam projects out of 8 apertures mounted around the exterior of the unit.  Each arm has a large mirror attached to a dedicated micro motor for movement. These create a expanding and contracting type effects.  Also mounted to the center are 4 mirrored dishes and 4 large round mirrors.  The 4 large mirrors are mounted on springs creating an awesome effect when the beam hits them.  The unit also features a dichoric color wheel with 4 colors that rotates around the lamp.  The unit has a total of 19 motors for operation.  8 micro motors for the arm mirrors, 8 micro motors for the mirror effects, 1 micro motor for the color wheel and 2 for the cooling fans.  The unit has a super high velocity fan for the lamp on the base and a smaller fan on the rear for the cooling of the ballast & electronics.  Unit can be controlled by 0 - 10 volt analogue or stand alone with music trigger from an onboard microphone.  There is a sensitivity knob for microphone adjustment.  This is the larger of the 2 models produced from Griven.  The smaller unit has a 575 discharge lamp instead of the 1200 watt bulb that is on this fixture.  Unit is super heavy and built like a tank!  Manufactured in Italy.
