JonM Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Hi Has anyone ever seen a Vite Light Kit? (http://cpc.farnell.com/jsp/level5/module.j...=cpc/408907.xml) I am thinking of getting one but just not sure how impressive/bright they will be. Thanks, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lightnix Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 ...not sure how impressive/bright they will be.I haven't seen them, but for less than £100, I think they will be neither :D I also think the fact that this seller only offers a 30 day warranty on them says something, too: AVOID !!! :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prolightdesigner Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 The site says they use 300w lamps, and that's a standard wattage for effects lights like those. I'm not sure if the brightness varies between 230v and 120v lamps. The question is how good are the optics? It won't really mean anything if they don't work! I would avoid these. -Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sound In Gloucestershire Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 these type of lights always waste so much light its ridiculous its a capsule lamp, so alot of the light is wasted by illuminating all angles yet a 100w effect with a dish would be brighter! theres a couple of firms selling their B Grades (ex-demo) versions cheap, suggesting that they arent great and shops are trying to move them on as always, it depends what you intend to use them for, but I wouldnt expect miracles!
