Strand Coda 500 Spares

Recommended Posts

My poor Codas are now 25 years old, and the terminals in the back are crumblier than a chocolate hobnob. They are the half screw terminal/half spades to accept crimps.

 

Any ideas on where to get some replacement bits??

 

I need enough to replace 10x coda 500/3 (40 blocks in total).

I just had a look at this brochure and interestingly, on page 2, there is a warning and a diagram regarding mounting instructions. The text is quite specific about using an asymmetric cyc lantern the right way up, which is good, however it then shows one used incorrectly in the diagram!!!!

This diagram is actually correct for the original codas. Confusingly it is the opposite to most other asymmetric floods on the market.

Ah, in which case I stand corrected. It would interesting to know what design tricks they have used to make the reflector work in a different way from other asymmetric floods.

I guess the only way to tell would be to set two units on the floor pointing at a wall. Have one with its reflector the almost universally accepted 'correct' way round, and the other with its reflector set according to the Strand manual. Fire them up and see what happens! And when you find out, let the rest of us know...
