I'm looking for a pinspot suitable for illuminating a 30" disco ball...

I've got two chrome ones, virtually new. Used once I think.

Not sure how much they are though?

About £6 from Thomann I think, although a 30" ball is pretty big- you might want to go a little bigger with the lighting to get the most from your ball.

Darren, how much are you looking for for the chrome ones? Do they include lamps?

Cheers,
Chris.

They have got lamps, yes.

I have no idea how much they were or are now - have a look round and let me know how much new ones are.

P&P from Thomann is £7 I believe, so I'm not sure about that!

Nope, not when I've bought from them. It might have changed as I haven't bought anything from there for a while.

I know what you're saying, I only need them for a one off gig though...

the black ones are cheaper than the chrome ones from thomann, although i still think you might need something bigger.

Having visited the venue, the mirrorball they're planning on putting up won't be too far away from my set up, probably 5m away and 3m up, take into account the stage is probably 1m high pythagora tells me that the pinspot(s) will be about 5m away. I reckon If I put one at either corner of the stage then that would do the trick...
