Matt Schleicher Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hey All, Quick rigging question. I'm shooting something that specifically requires (for reasons pertaining to the location) us to use Barger 6 lights as a spacelight system, rather than standard mole 6k socapex spacelight. Anyone have experience rigging a 6 light toppy from a lighting grid? What do I need to do this? The yoke looks like it is going to make it challenging... Thanks in advance for any wisdom!

Peter Daffarn Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Ed Barger is not on this forum so I sent the question to him. Here is his reply... The BL are not designed to be used as a space lite the heat in that position will eat the reflectors and switches one can use them as SLs in an emergency if they are not run full power for more than 15 min at a time then dimmed between takes to cool I have done this on Mattel toy commercials in the past but leaving them full power for even 30 minuets can damage the switches etc as the electrical box is right over the bulbs thanks again ed Edward V Barger BARGER LITE ed@barger-lite.com BARGER-LITE.COM 310 401 0633 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
