Newbie here, great video by the way.

Also, cleaning the front lenses. You should atleast clean your lights lenses here and there to keep them clear and clean so no smudges or dirtyness will go in the lighting while it's shooting out that light stuff. ( i might be wrong on this but i think cleaning the light's lenses is a good idea thing to do with these moving head lights. You don't wanna see any smudges or dirtyness showing through the beam or light icons in the haze or fog or even on walls or ceilings etc )

[@idjnow-gear-up]

Hello DJ Bekker the Kangaroo, you are right cleaning the lenses in Moving heads is a must at times but please use Gauze pads or fine microfiber cleaning cloth and use lens cleaner for best results. also get a can of compressed air and dust off any residue around the light itself and the lens. then use the microfiber cloth with the lens cleaner to wipe down the lens (keep in mind DO NOT DO A BACK AND FORTH MOTION) just start from one end to the other. hope this helps.

@@idjnow-gear-up Alrighty and thank you sooo much for this helpful cleaning moving heads. I like to keep my gear/equipment nice and clean and good care so they/these can last along time. Replacing the bulbs/lamps is also a good idea too i think? ( if they go bad or get damaged or warn/worn'out from sooo much usage. ) - i might be wrong on this?

[@idjnow-gear-up]

if its LED then its the LED chip/board that has to be changed but keep in mind when they discontinue them you will have about certain amount of time before they stop making parts for them.

[@bekkerthesokuangeldragon68]

@@idjnow-gear-up Yeah i understand. Do you think it's best to buy some for spare or backup just incase if they discontinue the parts? Like buy a handful of the LED's or lamps bulbs while they're still out on sales? before they discontinue somepoint on?

[@idjnow-gear-up]

yes if you decide to keep them. id check with the manufacture. if its gas discharged lamps they usually retail between 199-299 all depending the led chips that all depends and less likely to be available after its been discontinued
