    I use these scans from 4months

    I did try that before PAT100 but not really bright enough.

    The specifics:
    In addition:
    Its price-quality ratio (280 € both)
    -Everything else. See other reviews.

    Key under:
    -The very jerky movement
    The noise of the fan-
    With experience, I would tend towards Electroconcept club scan 250 (250MSD), history of progress.

    For how long have you been using it?

    8 months

    What thing do you like most/least about it?

    the +: weight! a real pen, dedicated flight for 2 machines, the function Stobe

    the -: wheel gobos / colors non-separated (at this price, we will not be choosy) and ice movements jerky using DMX with a "FADE TIME" slow.

    What is your opinion about the value for the price?

    EXCELLENT

    Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?

    yes, without hesitation (by ordering replacement lamps at the same time as those delivered with: grilled after 12h of use)

    A perfect machine for the mobile disco

    I use 2 for 2 years.

    I bought the handy flight which contains 2 flight in a very compact.
    I love his power (250 W ELC, simplicity, compactness.

    Like everyone, the default is the gobo wheel single color.
    Freestyler used with or independently, these scans are ideal for Discomobile.

    Wait to see the version in 20 watt LED!

    Introduction

    I've been owning two Dynamo 250 scans for one month.

    I used them for two events.

    I controlled them via a DMX software. (no music mode!)

    I had previously used other models but it's difficult to compare them because they were rented high-quality products (Martin).

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Summarized review:

    Pro: price!!!

    Pro: weight

    Pro: flightcase price

    Pro: nice gobos

    Pro: flood power and quality

    Pro: sweeping speed

    Pro: compact fixation system

    Con: only one wheel (gobos and colors not independent)

    Introduction

    Summarized review:

    Pro: weight

    Pro: flightcase price

    Pro: nice gobos

    Pro: flood power and quality

    Pro: sweeping speed

    Pro: compact fixation system

    Con: only one wheel (gobos and colors not independent)

    Con: AC power socket on the bottom side (there's no way to place them upright...)

    Con: noise (but not louder than other models and it's inaudible once the music starts!) (I recommend you to use multiple socket outlets with power switches to avoid unnecessary noises before powering them up)

    Con: resolution!!! It's the major turnoff, in my opinion. I tell you why below.

    Con: strobe effect (more below)

    Con: impossible to switch between DMX and music mode via DMX programming

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Regarding resolution:

    It isn't really a problem in strobe mode or with fast movements!

    Every scanner has a "resolution".

    It's the number of steps per movement.

    The Dynamo 250 has 167 horizontal steps and 40 vertical steps.

    So when you do a sweep from left to right you can see the image "jumping" from one step to another. The further the image the more it jumps, and the more the effect quality decreases... ok?

    So what I mean is that this scan has not enough steps.

    But you'll be the only one to notice it during an event!

    Regarding the strobe mode:

    The problem is the strobe function:

    It alternates the chosen gobo and the previous gobo on the wheel.

    As a consequence, if you are on gobo 5 and you turn on the strobe you'll see the flood changing from gobo 5 to gobo 4 instead of turning on an off.

    The real strobe only works with gobo 1. (alternate gobo 1 / gobo 0 = no flood)

    Could it be that every scan has this problem? I don't know...

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Summary

    Good scans! Excellent for mobile applications.

    Light, easy to use, easy to transport in a flightcase, and affordable. I strongly recommend them!

    They'll bee a success at events!!!
