Showtec Stage Blinder 2 DMX

Great device!

Lightweight, compact and reliable! No need to use an external dimmer - all already built in the device. I recommend it!

If overheats - stays turned on

I use them as front blinders, once I used them instead of front par cans, and it realy wasn't great idea, if you let them shine for too long, it will overheat and it will cause them to stay turned on even if you dimm them. So after this I decided to modify them with thermal fuse so i dont run into same problems ever again.

Overall good product, just dont let them full on for longer periods...

Gawd I love these

Everything is as expected. Nice thick bracket for both horizontal and vertical fitting/hanging. 3-pin DMX in/out. Could have fitted powercon in/out but i'll just do it myself. Comes with all you need, and it's all fitted as well. Not tinkering. Just plug and play!

Small powerfull blinder

Perfect from the small stages, to the big outdoor.

Much power from this little fixture.

Negative: The dmx DIP is not the best..

Solid Versatile Unit.

I initially bought a couple of these units just for the warm aesthetic that they bring to some live recording sessions I was filming. Used just to add warmth to my shots, never actually to blind, which they did quite well.

Though I also have 2 of these units mounted at the back of the stage in my venue and they will absolutely blind you when necessary.

For small freelance shows I've started using these as a front-wash as well. Which they do very well due to the warm tones that these lamps produce.

Get yourself a good little DMX controller and these Blinders are great and, as I've laid out, very versatile.

Bright as hell

Nice light but i have a bug. Sometimes the light gets stuck on, and the only way to turn it of is to kill the power for a while.

Pro:

Very bright for size

cons:

Not much other than what mentioned above.

great

Easy , do the job, just fine :-)

Great Product

Built in dimmer makes this a simple and effective addition to any lighting rig

OMG: As bright as the sun!

I have two of these on top of my truss and they illuminate the entire crowd really well! Very good at the end of the night to signify that 'THE GIG IS OVER- GO HOME!' and offer an ambient light for people to make there way out of the gig.

Pro's: really bright, dimmable, DMX controlled (1 channel dimmer 0 - 255). Up to midway the lights give a nice amber spread of light that can be used for effect.

Cons: I have extended the power cord as it was a bit short. Do not place anything that may catch fire as they get really hot. Bulbs are expensive but you can find cheaper ones.

Overall: Absolutely love these blinders!

Bright as the sun

Top Quality

The Light Output is amazing very bright unit and the advantage is that you don have to have a dimmer pack cause it has its on dimmer via dmx which it work great

becarefull if they are lit for a while the unit and bulbs become hot

overall massive product
