Blame Jono Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Any ideas on the cheapest place near to Exeter to hire a Foxi from for 1 day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Give Bright* a call on (01823) 481011 or e-mail info@brightbluelight.com - list price is £75 ex vat for the week, but the daily rate is 25% off. They are based in Taunton so should be able to help! Come well recommended from myself, and a few other Blue Roomers have used them.

peter Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Was about to suggest Bright*, but Stu got there first. SLX also stock Foxies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blame Jono Posted July 12, 2004 Author Share Posted July 12, 2004 Cheers. Bright* were my first thought but turns out that Stage LX will do it cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blame Jono Posted July 13, 2004 Author Share Posted July 13, 2004 Anyone ever tryed lighting a whole show with a foxi? My only idea is to get a big fat frost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P. Funk Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 well that depends - if its a one man show then you might just about get away with it! just out of interest (and research - we may need one soon) how much did you pay in the end? I dont mind you not saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blame Jono Posted July 13, 2004 Author Share Posted July 13, 2004 £52.25 for 24 hours.But...thats ex vat because its for a schooland they don't normaly do 1 day hire on lighting but the nice lady said she'd do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P. Funk Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 thanks. probably a bit irrelevant seeing as we need it for a week but thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blame Jono Posted July 13, 2004 Author Share Posted July 13, 2004 I think it's £80 for a week ex vat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Have you tried telling Bright* that Stage Electrics will beat their prices? As far as I know, they'll try their hardest to beat any price SLX will do, although I normally hire for 10 days so maybe its different for a one day.

Blame Jono Posted July 18, 2004 Author Share Posted July 18, 2004 Only thing with Bright* for this particualar hire was that we're in Exeter about 1 mile from Stage LX warehouse and Bright are in Taunton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulears Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 never used one of these - 700w msr? what are they like? can anyone compare them with something I might know. RJ is pretty well an unknown brand to me here in sunny norfolk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 They are nice and pokey, I used 2 of them for a Musical I lit last year and was mighty impressed with 'em! Nice and small, but give plenty of light. Also as they are light (as in weight here!) they are a pleasure to op. As to output? Hmmm can't think what to compare it too.. Brighter than a Mac 500 mind :unsure: Stu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
