Hi all

I have a 4ft winch and wheel frame and would like to mount two moving heads that I have to either end of the bar?
But my question is can they be mounted safely to the TrussLite straights or would I need to purchase the triangular truss to do this, if so would this work with the winch and wheel frame???

This is gonna sound silly but there is no name on them?? I purchased them from a chap (Eddie) who has given up the disco buisness but unfortunatley they didnt come with any manuals or branding, although they do look very simular to the Thomann ones here:

I must stick a picture up on the forum to see if anyone knows what make they are.

Went on absolutely fine on my 3m Ultimax bar, but I did bolt them directly on by the flat bracket on the base, didn't use a hook type hanging bracket.

I have 2 Stairville MV250H mounted on the 3 m Trusslite above the winch and wheel stand and have expereinced no problems. I used the bracket which comes with the lights and screws to the base and then mounted on trusslite with a G Clamp. The only downside is the the moving heads to have a tendancy to hang slightly to one side, but when the lights are down this is not noticable.
