  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

GROUP BUY *FEELER* -Re-Lamp By VisionSmith

ill take (1) 300 and (1) 650..

do you know if they will ever make 150 replacements ?
 
Jamon, it appears you put me on the list as interested in one 2K Daylight Relamp. That should be two 2K Daylight Relamps. I realize that we are still well short of 50 of that specific lamp, but one more is one more ;-).

FWIW, part of the VisionSmith value proposition is for studios that run their lighting hundreds of hours each year so they can recover the lamp cost via power savings. I have no idea how many RedUsers are are managing stages as part of their duties, but if we want to get to 50 units we may need a few larger orders in the mix. I urge any RedUser reading this post to consider if any studio they have any kind of relationship with, might be open to such a pitch. It's pretty compelling to get both more lumens per watt consumed, and, depending on the venue, substantial reductions in cooling costs - not to mention fewer delays required to blot sweat on talent...

Cheers - #19
 
With All Due Respect fella,
There's one thing I don't understand, we all jumping in just because there is a discount. I'm just curious, has anyone from our forum use/test these lamps?

Last time I saw the generic test on youtube and there was complain (1K output is equal to around 750), it may be the first generation.

Please confirm, If answer is not can we test these lamps before we buy it please

Added & I'll ask about the 150 replacements.


Kwan I've never heard about false, lower outputs.

Hey Jamon,
Can you please arrange a new test.

When I was planning to pick up 2K lamp (back in November), this review made me wait for their second generation lamp.

My thoughts too. People talking about the 2K relamp having the power of a 575HMI: That is big talk and quite a stretch to take on trust without seeing anything of it.

Thanks for posting this Quan. THIS IS SIGNIFICANT. That said, this is a GB feeler for V2 of the light. I will ask Pete if the version 2 will meet the actual output advertised & get a sample to test if so.

Reply from Pete in regard to the light output:

The Desisti has less ventilation than the Mole, so it may be more like a 750.

The ReLamp 1K in the Mole Baby with our lens is brighter than the Mole Baby with a 1000W halogen lamp.
Wooden Nickel in Burbank has these and the Mole LED next to each other for comparison.

We guarantee satisfaction with a full refund and so far everyone is happy with the output.

Hey Jamon, could you adjust my 2x 2k's to 2x 1k's ?

Although I feel confident in their return policy, an example video would be great as it seems these are fairly new products with not to many reviews out in the world yet.

Thanks again!
 
Sure Brody. FYI Pete is sending me out a unit tomorrow to do my own test. A 1K ReLamp that I will test with 2 Mole Baby 1ks... A tungsten ReLamp 1k that I will test side by side with a traditional Halogen 1K.
 
I'm on the east coast, is there anybody on the west coast who's seen the comparison set up at Wooden Nickel in Burbank that could weigh in?
 
I am interested in the "2.5K" extended pin version of the 2K for 5K lamphouses. Do you know if the group buy price will extend to this product?
