yes it barely adds anything to current load which makes my back happy and my Rock n roller a one trip ticket.
Yep...
We don't even bother offloading them between jobs that we aren't using them. They just aren't in the way. And we use them so much, anyways. Only once this week... but 3 times last week and 2 the week before. a lot of people are booking them.
These are so much easier than the Martin Robocolor II system we used to use as a basic lightshow (and more versatile.) No more bulb changes, cool down or numerous repairs by Martin to that don't hold up.

Kirby took a quick video of it without DMX sound active. Quite impressive.
I think there is a view of it on the Chauvet site also. Im pretty sure either NLFX or Steve Fernino has posted it on here as well.

Yep... the video is here in this thread:
Chauvet 4Bars: Please get on the list! - Our DJ Talk - DJ Help and Resources Chat!
There is also a blog post on it (with the video) at http://www.nlfxpro.com/blog/4b
I haven't gotten the video footage back from our video guys from the events we did with the 4Bars yet.
The video I had posted was of Ben playing LJ (no pimp coat though) at our B'Nai Mitzvah with a much larger lightshow... and architectual lights LOL

Only issue I have with the 4 Bar is the actual bar is Square and you cannot attach any other lights using O clamps. Now it forces you to use another stand for other lights.
Not really... It was never designed for that. It is designed to be an all-in-one basic lightshow to go, that sets up in a minute. And it excels at that!
If you want to hang lights from the same bar, it's not made for you. Instead, you should get a t-bar and 4 Chauvet Rain LEDs or equivalent and mount them and the other lights you want to it. :sqconfused:
For the 4bar to accommodate this, not only would the bar need to be round, but be bigger, thicker, and be able to support a lot more weight. The stand would have to also. The transport bags, would then be a lot bigger... And of course it would cost a lot more. Then it would not be a 4Bar nor an all-in-one basic lightshow to go, that sets up in a minute. And it certainly wouldn't cost under $400! :sqerr:
Personally, I never fault gear because it doesn't do something it was never intended to do. That's like buying a 2 way 8 inch and complaining that it doesn't put out the same bass as an 18" subwoofer.
I think about 9'. I'd love to tell you for sure, but we had to ship all of the ones that we got in. Kirb, Steve... anybody?

Dunno, I didn't raise 'em up all the way....Steve? ? ?
I did raise them up, but I didn't get out my tape measure...
I'm guessing about 9' sounds right. Can't confirm right now.
