What does the clamp consist of, is it just a standard clamp or did you make it yourself.

Which heads are they?

Good idea. I personally would prefer 2 g-clamps as opposed to the bolt and nut, but still fixes the problem :)

you could use 2 clamps steve, which was purposed orginal idea, But that drops the heads even lower, And it didnt look to good that low,

The heads are just some 250w party movers, Ideal for small jobs as nice and compact, Saying that they and incredibly bright

Which looking at them seem very much like the gvg ones, All i can say is for 300 quid a pair buy em, I had a demo next to an evl mover, And well it blew it away in terms of brightness these are still bright in daylight, And only use a 250w elc bulb

They are the GVG ones, but they are a generic moving head that get rebadged when coming back to the UK and quite a lot of places and companies sell them. They are also the ones I saw at PLASA a couple of years back and I think they are very good and excellent value at £300 for 2.

Yeah they look like them image for image, These are just branded under zoom party movers

The only niggle i have with them is the bracket, But thats been sorted know, Very tempted to get another pair, Next up manual dmx on them but that will come after the weekend
