Bonfire Barrel¶
Overview¶
The Bonfire Barrel is a cluster of three wooden barrels mainly used as dressing for SR bay 4. The barrels are on air lift casters to enable them to move. they have a trailing Trueone and 5-pin DMX connection. The barrels have a collection of 2 Slimpars?, 8 Gantum Led spots and a Look Solutions Power Tiny.
Build¶
The fixtures are afixed in to the frame of the barrels with wood screws (this includes the two gantoms on the outside of the barrels). The powertiny has a wodden shelf it is sat on, it is blacktacked on the front to piping to distribute the smoke to the frount to barrels where the smoke can exit through the holes on the top of the front barrels. Power is supplied via a True One cable (there is a break in the loom as no power is required for Act 2), the True one is split to an IEC multi block that powers the Gantum PSU's and the other way of the True One powers the two Slimpars. The Power Tiny is Powered by its own internal battery, the charger is permantly connected to the inputs as the piping makes it difficult to access it.
