Managing the Power of your Lights - Dimmers
LSC Redback 12 RU Dimmer
A dimmer is a device used to control the brightness level of a lighting fixture. By increasing or decreasing the power to the fixture, it controls intensity of the light's variance. Typical terminology for the change in this intensity includes "fade", "fade up" or "fade down".
The size of the dimmer is dependant upon the size of the lighting design. Small dimmers are usually used for residential purposes and include the popular wall mounted light switch, whereas larger dimmers are needed for larger lighting installations including stadiums, concerts and external architectural lighting.
The dimmers required for stage or entertainment purposes are controlled via DMX, which is connected to the lighting desk.
The new Australian made Redback 12 dimmer provides 12 channels at 10A with 100% Duty Cycle in only 2RU of height.
The concept behind the Redback project was to produce a feature rich, high quality reliable dimmer in a small compact footprint at a very affordable price."
