0:00 Another video on this light from Beatopper
Alright ladies and gentlemen, another video on this light from Beatopper. It's basically a PAR can that can be used in many ways. You could put this say on your light trussing rig, you can have them on the ground, facing the wall, facing just anywhere really. So a bit noisy because all fans are working. Now cost-wise... These are relatively inexpensive. You know, you can pick up four lights for quite a decent price. In fact, these four lights are probably less than one of the more expensive lights that do practically the same thing. So if you're not interested in buying, you know, really top market names, then you can't go wrong. All colours and what I've done is I've set these two to run through random colours but what I've done on the two on the right is I've got these now set same colour and I've got a DMX cable so I've gone from the out of the DMX cable on one to the in on the other. Now
2:17 Great for uplighting in your venue
If you're anything like me, I'm going to turn this off for a second. If you're anything like me and you don't really want to go through the motions of DMX and so on, you can use these. The best way is to go master-slave. So say you've got four units. You would start on one unit. You'd go out of that into the next, out of the second one into the third, out of the third. And then you'd use your first unit to set the chase, the colour or whatever you wanted. And that then would be the master and all of the other lights would do exactly the same. Let's just turn it back on again. So there we go. All right. So applications for a light like this. Great for uplighting in your venue. In a bit, there'll be a small clip from an event I did over the weekend where I use these. Great just for uplighting on trussing rigs. Again, let's say you're a mobile DJ. You'll see in my events that I had one of these behind the DJ booth. I had the others across the wall. So, behind the DJ booth, in front of the DJ booth,
You could even put them, let's say, next to your tripods, underneath your tripod. So let's say, for example, you're using a white scrim. You've got your speaker, tripod, white scrim. You could have this, one of these behind the white scrim, giving a nice kind of effect. Now, I wouldn't start having it flashing red, green, blue and orange all through the night. I'd more likely just leave it one colour. Now again, maybe the client has said that they like maybe a turquoise or they like green or they like a nice sort of mellow blue colour. Well of course, using uplighting you can set a mood in the room to fix in and to go with the whole evening. You know, maybe you're doing a wedding and the bride likes yellow. Well of course, uplighting in yellow.
4:13 Have it bright, have it dim
And you've set the entire mood for the whole world, for the whole room. Alright, so let me just unplug this one and we'll have a look at the back. Now again, they're very simple, very straightforward, okay? You can see there the LPC008S. There will be information in the description. So we have our power in. Cable isn't exactly very long, but then of course, you know, it's all about price. We have our screen here and these functions, if you're familiar with these, if you're not familiar it is really really simple. On the left hand side that goes through the shows, the middle then, the middle two, you go up and down. So let's say for example you've got red, well then you can use the two middle ones to maybe have the red flashing quite fast, quite slow.
Have it bright, have it dim. Once you've set the acquired show you want, you then press the right button and that will lock it in place so it's going to stay in that show. It's made of plastic but it seems pretty sturdy to me. Now also I like this scissor design here. So what I like about this is if you pull them together you can see You've got a hole there and that is great for connecting to your light trussing rig. Alternatively, as I've done here, you can open them out and then you can have those sitting on the floor quite nicely and of course you can angle any direction you want. So it's really difficult to see the sort of effect in a kitchen like this but what we'll do now quickly We'll cut over to a video I did last weekend where I had these and I'll say practice, enjoy now. Don't forget there is information in the description. Go and check them out. You can't go wrong. Practice and enjoy. Thanks a lot. Minimal setup tonight. Got a couple of EVs, got the Opus Quad, but mainly tonight it's just like a bit of background music and then finishing off the evening. There you go.
Looking good.
