Check out now- light mans worst night mare!

Repair my A$$. No one is going to repair those. those things look like they made a daily trip to hell and back. they would prolly make good donors for spare parts though.

Make no mistake that this item is defiantly broken

LOL at least they are really up front

Those poor, poor lights. What the hell did the people do to them to make them "broken"???!?

Looks like they fell off a cliff!!

that is a classic example of rental company equiptment, and the non love for the industry

They are in moving head heaven.... R.I.P. Maxx1 & Maxx 2

Goes to show, metal case, bad, composite plastics, good

I don't know, with that abuse composite plastic may have cracked...can comopsite crack?

of course it can, just today i got a call from a client sayin one of his mx4's fell and from what i understand, they had the bar backs cleaning the lights and they somehow dropped one 15 feet to the floor....i havnt seen it yet...but they said its in pieces

Is those where composite plastic they be the all new See through Maxxs's

composites can take more of a beating than metal can. Metal bends and can intrude on the internal components and can also impede the movement of the fixture. composites will maintain shape even if cracked. This is why bumper covers on cars are made out of urethane now rather than metal. It cost more for the urethane plastic but its cheaper in the long run for the consumer because it can take a beating more than metal.

A MX-4 falling from 15feet will prolly survive in one piece but something is prolly broken inside. i have 2 and they are tuff but the shock of hitting the ground from 15feet is prolly a little too mcuh.

Tell your client that he/she needs to use safety cables. A 20bls fixture falling from that high is not a good thing to have hit some one.

Thats why you buy safety cables!

i told him 2 but he insisted the o clampswould work...now they just didnt fall by themselves...they shouldnt have had the bar backs cleanin them anyways:S

the client just didnt want to pay me what i want to clean tresses

(have u ever seen how much dust is up there)

lol

those lights DID GO THROUGH HELL!

i think this is the worst picture out of the five...

here an idea have the owners send those lights in for repair boy i bet ADJ Service & Support would like that

Bill
$5000 - Parts
$200 - new motors and shield

LOL!

that is so sad

Yea well i was working on show, i was standing on a 50 foot lader, trying to install a "high end" Trackspot for the ucsd break dance concert when all the suden i felt the light slip out of my hands, and it was on its way down, at the last second i jumped down below it and caught it, it should have broken my arm, yep thats my DJ SWAT ACTION at work! Dang, those lights are 30 pounds at least. Why cant ucsd get a motor to just lower the whole "dang" Truss?????

Raise your hand if you would carry a moving head by the head!

those things arent THAT heavy. Only when they are falling
