Thanks for reminding people that not every set is perfect in the sense that power outages on generators can happen at any time. I’m glad your crowd was forgiving and appreciated the battery speaker even at a lower volume. Definitely has me wanting to invest in a bigger jackery though.

I used a 3000w Goal Zero generator last year for a similar gig and it was amazing. I'm sure the Jackery Equivalent would also be awesome

Clients don't realize how much juice gets sucked up by other items at outdoor events. You said it was a 6K generator so likely only 5,000 running watts or so. 5,000watts / 120volts = 41 amps of power and that's probably split between two different circuits on the board. Between the chandeliers and the string lights, that consumes a chunk. Your typical coffee urn uses about 12 amps. Most weddings have three of them. One for regular coffee, one for decaf and another for hot water. Add that to the lights and another 15 amps for your system every time the bass hits and you were killing that generator. You clearly did the best you could in that situation. Great Gig log and... great job making lemonade out of lemons!

Nice one man! Glad you were able to recover after stopping and starting so many times! Did you ever think about turning off the moving heads at one point? Or did you need them?
@DJDarylBennett Жыл бұрын
I did have them off for a while, but I turned them on again after turning off the incandescent chandaliers. They're small and LED and I figured that they weren't what was tripping the power
@pablomiami Жыл бұрын
@@DJDarylBennett I was thinking the same as djdrizzy. I agree that the LED light part of the lights are not of too much concern however the electric motors for the moving heads probably pull enough power to be relevant to this issue. I'm also curious if it could've made a difference. However from what you say in the video, their generator might not have been a true 6600W. btw thanks for sharing the video.

That crowd looked like chill people, radar detects no drama queens on first sight ;) Do these Both 360 only run on battery? How long do they last if only running on batteries? Will be hard to keep up with them for 6-8 hours running only on batteries or am I mistaking? I got a pair of GVM tubes they run on batteries OR current. I like the flexibility when it comes to lighting.

What’s up man great video that sucks with all those power outage but shit happens. The question I have for you is I’m trying to purchase those lights. How is the company that you purchased them form because I reached out to both lighting USA and they’re like four or $500 more, how was your experience with this company?
@DJDarylBennett6 ай бұрын
My personal experience has been good. The products ship quickly, and they arrive in working order, communication is a little slower than with an American company, but usually within a day. Overall I like working with both lighting direct and enjoy saving some money.

I’m curious on the titan tubes, I see they can go up to 160 channel mode. For 4 of these which channel mode do you put them in soundswitch? Are they all on the same channel or do you give them their own channel for chasing effects and things like that?
@DJDarylBennett5 ай бұрын
I put 4 of them on 80-channel mode, so that I can have 16-zones of control in my pixel chases, and they're unique so that I can do offsets, etc... When first getting started, you can do 12-channel mode so you can just leverage the built-in macros
