Heck, you don't even need to touch the sliders... just punch the data into the automation software and watch 'em slide on their own!

No problem after hours and hours with the Omnis and the FTK 500 WATTS .
how ever in this part of the planet FTK are very difficult to find.
Have you tryed the DYS 600 watts ? How well do the perform ?

Yes Fillipe, I use the USHIO DYS 600 watt bulbs in my omnis - no problems, work great.

If anyone's still watching this, here's one, and a link to one vendor's page. I have checked a couple of vendors, and the price is about the same--much higher than the FTK, but if it solves the problem...

JCD120V-500WC

There is also a 300-watt version, JCD120V-300WC.
