This unit is a four channel dimmer pack, able to run a maximum of eight 300 watt lights from a 13amp plug! With this small unit comes the ability to set your truss lighting at any brightness required, dim off the appropriate areas. Using a dimmer pack increases bulb life as the bulb does not go from cold to hot instantly, a recommendation with rigs using 300 watt lighting units. This item is supplied with ten metres of cable. Why not look at the remote as well you can then secure the minipack up in the gantry, and use the remote on the ground.
