After looking for a suitable addition to my rig for a while, decided upon the Lanta Quasar Sapphire Twinkle.

For those who are interested, It's a 300mW Blue cluster laser with 6-channel DMX.

Perfect service from Discoworld with free next day delivery (although they did get my company name wrong on the receipt - I'll let them off for that though...this time! :p )

The unit is very neat and compact measuring a mere 153mmm(W) x 201mm(D) x 86mm(H Excluding Bracket)and weighing in at 1.3Kg. Solid metal construction with an integrated, adjustable hanging bracket - Although you need an Allen Key to tighten.
The front of the unit houses the internal microphone, sensitivity adjustment and LED indicator as well as the aperture for the laser.

The rear of the unit features the power switch, IEC connector, LED Power indicator, DMX in & out, DMX Address Dip switch bank and cooling fan.

Included in the box is a 2m DMX lead of some un-branded flavour, not the best - but it's a nice touch.

Surprisingly there's no instruction manual included in the box! - You can however download it from the Lanta website.

Auto mode is as simple as flicking the DMX Address switches 1 and 10 to the 'on' position. The unit has a great spread and is very bright! - even in a well-lit room.

I'll get some decent photo's and a video tonight.

Overall a great little product!

My 7 year old nephew and 4 year old niece love it and the animation laser.

"Uncle John can you get the lasers out" a few nights ago and they have said the same again tonight.

:D

Had this light out on a school disco tonight (Yep a School Disco on a Sat Night)

What a great effect. It filled the Schools Main Hall. I also used my new Blue Lanta Sapphire Animation laser also which looked nice.

Here is a video of the cluster laser in action.

Please note this wasn't my gig but i shot the video of my blue cluster in action. I took it along on his request. Everything else you see in the video is courtesy of one of my dj friends. the rest of the equipment belongs to him and also he was DJing so all the dancing is down to him.
