RaiderMochie Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Is there a MAXIMUM extension cable length the 10w Flood Light can have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilMassey Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 My longest is 45 feet. You can probably go longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 a 10W flood draws only .84 Amps FULL WHITE. Most of the time, you will be drawing less (not full or not white) I have a couple of doubled up floods (Using the LOR 'Y' cable into the floods) to light a really tall wall, the Y is on a 10' extension (1.6A all white) (The second flood is mounted above the window. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tl4f4VFxZNh83TQw9XV6n3B6sI2zw9xb/view?usp=sharing Last year, LOR was out of 20' extensions (I had to jump a double garage door and could not have a connector midway). No problems. (I now have another CMB24, so I no longer need the jump) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using HC's 10W RGB Floods and last year {2021}, my longest run was 80' to first #1 flood, and the other 6 daisy-chained 5 feet apart from #1 to #2 and a 5 foot from #2 to #3, then another 10 foot between #3 and #4, and another 5 feet between #4 and #5 and finally another 5 feet between #5 and #6. So counting all that, from controller to Flood #6 I had 110 feet of extensions consisting of 4-20 foot,4-5 foot and 1-10 foot extender cable. No issues running them at any color at all. They were also controlled by an N4-G4 Director, CCCII Controller {1,000K/Enhanced/Aux B}. Ran flawlessly. Edited August 6, 2022 by Orville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really surprised a Pixie2 ran 6 of these due to the small internal power. Was the 2nd port unloaded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
