Thanks to @Sierra Bravo for the idea and on top of that, offering to help install it when he came to pick up frags. I say I helped but I just stood there, handed him tools, and viola, 20 mins later it was installed. I accidentally ordered two but I'm liking it so much that I'm going to install the extra one over my frag tank. What...no demo video?????? Very cool! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jolt Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 So this rig manages to keep the light level and you only manipulate one cable to raise or lower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted February 4, 2018 Author Share Posted February 4, 2018 So this rig manages to keep the light level and you only manipulate one cable to raise or lower?Yes, same concept as mini-blinds but for light fixtures. It has two cords that are pulled in unison with the handle so it always stays level when pulling up and down. A 2nd rope is added to disengage and release the light to lower when desired. That allows me to engage when needed but never accidentally drop the light. Pretty cool feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
