American DJ GoboTec



One of the classic effects from American DJ. This is the GoboTec unit that is very similar to the LyteQuest Prism as it has the same internal rotating gobos, just a different head. I was lucky to find this unit since it was still brand new in the box!! The unit has 3 gobos that change every 8 - 10 seconds and rotate constantly. The light projects from the rear of the unit, goes through a convex lens, through the gobo wheels, through another adjustable focus convex lens then onto a rotating multi-color wheel at the top of the unit. The multi-color wheel spins to the beat of the music. The effect is really stunning!! Bulb source is a 82 volt, 250 watt EXY lamp. Unit uses 4 motors for operation. 1 for the gobo rotation, 1 for the gobo changer, 1 for the rotation head and 1 for the cooling fan. Unit made in Taiwan.

American DJ CM-3010-M Cosmos Ball




Look at this beauty! This is a classic American DJ CM-3010-M cosmos ball. Unit is in great condition and has the optional mirrored surface on the exterior. Unit moves VERY fast. The tumble motor clocks in at 60 RPM and the rotation motor is 15 RPM. The exterior has 10 PAR 36, 12 Volt, 30 Watt 4405 bulbs with neon indicators to determine which bulb is out when it occurs. Unit has 3 separate circuits so the motors and lamps can be controlled separately.

Satel FG-360 Rotating Spotlights




Very nice units from Satel. These are FG-360 units that rotate a full 360 degrees causing a cool moving beam of light in the air. The light moves at 30 RPM and looks great in fog. The bulb is a common 6 volt, 30 watt 4515 spot lamp. Units made in Spain.

Coemar Duo 700 MSR




Check out this rare beauty! This is a Coemar Duo 700 MSR dual head scanner light. This unit is SUPER bright as it contains a 700 watt MSR arc lamp in the center that produces perfect light. The unit also uses a separate ballast unit for the lamp. The 2 units are connected by a long umbilical wire cord so it reduces weight and size on the head as well as makes the unit more compact for smaller spaces. Currently the fixture has only 1 power cord attached, but a second can be added for separate control of the fan. Inside the head the lamp sits in the center with a dual set of large convex lenses that focus the beams of light. The beams then go through a dichro/gobo wheel then out another adjustable (focus) lens and onto the rotating mirrors. It is a very cool light show when operating. This unit is fully automatic and is triggers from a microphone found on the base. The effect is a intelligent scanner type effect, but without the need for an external controller. The bulb was damaged during transit so videos will be up as soon as I get the replacement in. Unit made in Italy.
