Chauvet Intimidator Spot LED 350 How to Replace a Gobo

0:00 How you can change the gobos

Alright guys, you've got in front of you the Intimidator Spot LED 350 and inside there is the area where you have the colour wheel and the gobo wheels. And in this video I'm going to show you how you can change the gobos there. We're going to change one of them, OK?

1:16 Don't worry, it's a tough little sucker so it's not going to fall apar

Right, there they are. And yes, I'm losing my voice. And if you hear any little noises in the background, that's my little boy Blaze. There's the gobo wheels, there you go. And there's one I took out earlier and that there fits first into the 350, so how do we actually remove the gobo? What I want to show you is just in there you can see a small little piece of metal. Now, the gobo itself is shaped like that. And this sort of triangular piece with the top cut off sits neatly underneath there. So what you actually have to do is lift this part of the gobo wheel up and then gently pull. Now, you may need to give it a bit of a tug. Don't worry, it's a tough little sucker so it's not going to fall apart.

But what you can do is you can choose which gobo you want to take out. So you can swap it around. You can actually change all of them. So this is the great thing about the 350, is that it's up to you what gobos you want and actually what gobos you want where as well. OK, so I'm going to change that one for something a little bit different. Let's have a look.

1:59 There is the gobo wheel

Right, so there you go guys. There is the gobo wheel. And if you hear any noises in the background, that's my little boy. What I've had to do is take a small circlip that holds the gobo in place out. And I've now replaced it with my own personal gobo which I will now put back into there. OK, so I'll put the camera on the tripod. OK, so you should be able to see it sitting under there. Now the only other thing to do now is to lift very slightly and push there. That is about it. Now what should happen is that the gobo wheel you've replaced should move freely. And while you move the gobo wheel itself around, the gobo you put in should move around as well. So I'll demonstrate that. There you go. So that's what should happen.

Now we will, just a minute mister, now we'll give it a blast. Are you trying to catch it? Alright, it's a little bit blurry and difficult to see because... There you go. Oh there you go. Well you got a glimpse of it. Alright, I will be using this in gigs so I'm sure you'll get the better view. Is that fun Blaze? Yeah. Nice one, practice and enjoy.
