719matt3796 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 So I added 20 strobes to my show this year and have had 4 quit working so far.....most part they run about 3 or 4 seconds. One song I have them on for 20 Seconds. Any thoughts if this is why? Haven't had any wet weather yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffF Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 If they are xenon strobes DO NOT APPLY LESS THAN 100% POWER! There is no quicker way to kill them then to fade them or not use full power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
719matt3796 Posted November 30, 2014 Author Share Posted November 30, 2014 No I only run them full power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 That's a pretty high failure rate on the strobes. Your usage surely isn't excessive. You might want to contact the vendor. If they're even remotely reliable they should take care of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Polenchar Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Did you take the time to put weep holes in them? Even without having rain condensation inside them can happen.The weep holes lets that evaporate. I have my strobes for 5 years now and no failures.
