Brighter bulbs for my DJ Spot 250

r u talkin about using a bulb that isn't the same type as adj prefers u use? well the difference in brightness is cause ur accu spots have a brighter bulb than that of the dj spot 250's. cause one is halogen and one is MSD. try looking at some phillips light bulbs for ur dj spot. also do u have the newer djspots that have the upgraded reflector system to increse lamp out put by like 40% if i remember correctly. how old are the 14 dj spots u got? jingles!

My 14 DJ Spots have been purchased at different times over the last year from Guitar Center. I've never heard of an upgrade reflector so I'll assume mine already has it. I understand that I cannot put an MSD bulb inside (although that would be nice since I have 4 extra MSD bulbs sitting next to me) but I was wanting to know if there was maybe a bulb with more watts or just a different manuf. that anyone has experimented with. Thanks

Most fixtures are designed around the lamp/bulb that they already use. Anything more powerful (more wattage) can negatively impact a fixture (ie: blow fuses, melt components, overheat the unit, etc). The increased power draw will exceed the limits engineered into the fixture.

I could only recommend trying different manufacturers of the 250 watt lamps the fixtures use. I would not try a lamp with an increased wattage over 250 watts for the reasons listed above.

yeah what lightech said not a good ideas at all to boost bulb wattage more than reccommended. try different companies. i like phillips! jingles!

Thanks guys. I think I'll buy more Accu Spots. I just perfer the color selection of the DJ spot 250 over the colors in the Accu Spot. I like the basic colors.

Maybe support can tell you if the color wheel from the DJ Spots can fit into the Accu Spots ??? . I have no idea if it's even possible possible, but it seems like something I'd at least investigate if I were in your position.

also using fog and/or haze will increase the visibility of your lights by id say at least double the intensity if you arent already using some kind of smoke type effect.
