    Hey just wondering if anyone is using stairville mv250h moving heads?
    I bought a set and need to get my hands on a user guide or owners manual.

    Any help would be great.

    I know they're rebranded, but from what I couldn't tell you...

    ACME Spotknight! Was on the tip of me tongue.

    You'll rarely find manuals for stairville/harley benton/rebranded thomann gear.

    Beware though...

    DO NOT PLUG INTO AN AC POWER SOURCE.
    DO NOT PLUG INTO A DIMMER SYSTEM.

    This runs off 'hot' 13 amp consumer power. There is a DC motor in it so AC power will make **** of it. @ 250w (:D) a single PAR Can will completely wash it off the stage, even a short-throw birdie (par16) would make the gobos etc... illegible. The only concievable use you'll get out of this would be if you had a hazer on constantly and were in a dark club without a VJ - but for the money you've payed I'm sure you're aware of this.

    Thanks jimi,
    I emailed thomann and they sent me the one i needed.
    as for the tips thanks a lot, could have been a costly mistake!!

    I wil be using these for mobile dj work, and its just a new toy to be honest, i think the 250w is plenty for what im doing its not for a stage or light show .

    Again thanks for your help!
