Can i do this with the American DJ Mega Flash DMX?

How much electricity do these consume in a day?

Hey Brian...nice video...questions...when setting up for m/s do you need to address the fixtures differently? Also, can you m/s out of sequence? Meaning if I have the master fixture on a truss say on the right side and then link some cans next then have the slave fixture on the left side of the truss would it work?

Yeah it's a shame that the Junior High I do them for require the back lights to be on makes almost all of my current effects not show up on the back wall and very little on the ceilling do to"PDA" which is strange to me as the High School that I am going to and am trying to get them to let me do the lighting for the homecoming dance and others because between you and me the lights the DJ's showed up with at the dance were very inadequate and unprofessional had the lights off.

@gc53dfgc As with most lights, it's best to do them in the dark. The Hot Water/Wherehouse video I did with the VIZI's had some house lights on and you could still see everything pretty good

@djpumpinpaul Usually, you have to buy your own DMX cables. Sometimes you get them free with your lights, but most of the time, yeah you gotta pick up your own DMX cables. Accu Cable is decent stuff and recomended to use with ADJ lights, but will work with virtually any brand
Can i do this also with my Showtec LED Par56 Short DMX got 4 off them

@MrBuzzel7 You should be able to do them with just about any DMX fixture. Just check your manual for master/slave settings

@pjverzalik Yeah I like them! Very nice for the Mobile DJ or even a club install. They do a lot for the price.

@ljmike1204 I don't know why there is a limit. It probably has something to do with the signal streingth. Keep in mind that most of the time, you can master/slave 50+ lights together so the limits don't really matter for Mobile guys.
