One two three FOUR duff lights!
A friend of mine had a tip off (me) that four Chauvet 305 Barrels were going for a song & he snapped em up. Problem was they're all deaded. The issue.. dead power supplies among other things.
Anyway here's the rub: Scoping around for a suitable replacement PSU (once fault finding time goes over a set amount it's uneconomical to repair) I found the manufacturer on AliExpress, selling exactly the model Chauvet use.
FOR SIX DOLLARS apiece.
$6 USA... in singles, nevermind what volume discounts the OEM gets.
In a light fixture retailing at very nearly 400 quid! Where's the profit?!
Yours sincerely, disgusted of Co. Durham.
