rossmck Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Don't suppose anyone knows where I could obtain a couple of NJD DPX 12/4 dimmers ? They are out of stock at the manufacturers and everywhere else I've seen, probably because the National Theatre bought the entire UK stock [ http://www.whitelight.ltd.uk/news/?n=1276 ] I'm looking for two for an installation project, and yes there's a particular reason for choosing these dimmers... unless anyone else can suggest a low cost way of getting 18 channels DMX of low power dimming ( 4A is more than enough ) ...

Tow Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 has anyone had any use out of these and wouldn't mind giving a quick opinion? I have 2 (and a spare) installed in a church, supplying 500w par64s and Source 4Jrs. They are a couple of years old now and have never given a problem. The CPC description is very old, the current version is black, does not use DIP switches (has LED display/menu), does not have a built in DMX terminator, but does have a RJ11 DMX socket! BTW the manual says not to exceed 600W per channel for halogen lamps. Here is a better link. The ones I have do not have brass mounting brushes fitted which makes the truss mounting kit useless. I contacted NJD asking how they were supposed to be attached and got told the factory in China forgot to fit them! I found a standard clamp through one of the 5 20mm cable holes in the end with a couple of big washers works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonW Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Just to prove the blueroom can find anything .. I believe I've now got a source for these as soon as another member comes back from holiday - Thanks :-) I'm also looking for a pair of these for a job in September. I don't suppose your source has access to more than one? Cheers, Simon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
