  1. Crikey! No domestic plug. Dimmer is outputting, yes. Socket and plug are good. £40 for a wiring set. Eesh. Thanks for the suggestion. I have a couple of dozen second hand fittings of which most are GY9.5 and finding I quite often need to replace lampholders, particularly after a bulb failure. Most are cheap, basic and not very effective [Microspot 308/Minim23 calibre] this is rapidly becoming a cost effective decision as a new lampholder costs more than a cheap LED flood which is in many ways just as acceptable for a back street AmDram and certainly easier to rig/focus for many of them. I'm not trying to put a source4 into this category, just commenting on the lampholder failures. Hahaha! 'I'm nor saying they're a problem... but I'm directly associating them with other heads which are a problem!" - something like that? :-) No love lost, you could well be on to something. Solid advice. Will try this first.
  2. I have an ETC Source 4 Zoom 25'-50'. The HPL 750w lamp blew for no nefarious reason - I understand it's been a bit of a workhorse and it was pretty much due for a new lamp. I have replaced with an HPL 575w but now the light isn't working at all. I have tried plugging it in directly and also through the dimmer. The dimmer is receiving power. This is a new light to me - is there anything obvious I can check? Any advice appreciated.
