16KW Stroboscope

High Power Stroboscope. Made of 8 2KW Siemens airfield flash lights. Each can flash at 4Hz with 60 Ws energy. The tubes are flashing on a brightness over 100 million candelas. The stroboscope is controlled by an Attiny2313 microcontroller.
Hard to film because the flashes are only 0.5 msec and so bright that the camera will stop down. So i had to film in sunshine.

@blickblocks If you search 16 kw stroboscope wikimedia, you'll find it, just in case his link doesn't work :P sounds like drums

nice but it is only 2kw at any given time, make them all flash at the same time :))
