Hot on the heels of the successful 2RU version of the Redback dimmer, LSC recently released a 4RU UK dual 15Amp outlet version of its popular dimmer. Pete Floyd who works in International Sales at LSC commented "It's a ripper mate! The UK market is unique due to their power requirements and useless connectors. Every other country in the world can do this in a 2RU unit but the UK in holding on to its history believes that unless the connector has 10 oz of copper in it (280 gm for the rest of us) then it isn't a proper connector".Pete who recently migrated to Australia can now say these things living 24,000 km away (or is that 15,000 miles).

After the successful release of the innovative 2RU Redback™ dimmer late last year, Australian control systems manufacturer LSC Lighting Systems is proud to announce the recent release of a 4RU version of the Redback™ specifically targeted at markets that use UK outlets. The new 6-channel dimmer provides 12 x 15A UK outlets on the front panel and the rotatable side panels allow the dimmer to be wall mounted, rack mounted or to free stand. The new package inherits all the features of the Redback™ family including a full 512 channel DMX softpatch; Min & Max levels and a choice of individual fade curves per channel. With the built in memories, individual fade times and Chases, Redback™ can even run in stand-alone mode making it ideal for Museums, Presentation and Retail environments. There’s even a MIDI option, allowing the user to connect a MIDI sequencer or Keyboard to the Redback™ to trigger the dimmer outputs. Connector options on the 2RU versions of the family are varied and include Australian, 15A UK, all Shuko versions, 16A CEE, Socapex, Harting and Hardwire options. Designed and manufactured by LSC Lighting entirely in Australia, the Redback™ comes with a 2 year warranty as standard. The Redback™ family of dimmers is available in the UK usually ex-stock from Whitelight Ltd in London.
