Anyone know where I can find a CDRH compliant lumia projector?

I'm working on a disco-themed nightclub, and I'd really like to liven up some of the interior space with a couple lumias (while this would probably be more suitable for a 60's themed club, I just really like the effect). I've seen them in other clubs, just not sure if there are any 'legal' varieties in the USA.

Lumias are a tough animal. Normally with galvos, you have a projection zone. That projection zone is based on the angular deflection capablilties of the galvos. Everything can be predetermined and predicted (to a degree). With lumias, they are not as predictable. Even though they can diffuse and scatter laser light everywhere, thus lowering MPE, there can still be hot spots and danger zones. I have never applied for a CDRH varience but I imagine it would probably be pretty hard to get one for a lumia of any real power. I suppose zone masking could be done at the output.... Good luck!

Ok, I screwed up. I don't mean 'projector' in the usual laser sense, I mean projector as in projecting light. I know Chauvet makes one, just trying to figure out if I have other options.

Eric,

Take a look at the American DJ "Hypnotic RGB". I've seen this unit up close and it's a nice projector, DMX support and CDRH compliant. To the best of my knowledge, it's the only legal RGB lumia projector available.

I second that on the American DJ Hypnotic RGB, I have one and its a nice lumia effect with DMX control... Great price too

I spoke to this guy a week or two ago on this very subject http://www.laserspectacles.com/produ...mia-projector/ and he is a member of the forum, though I can't recall his forum name. His projector is certified. I'm sure he can give you some great info or maybe he'll see this and chime in.

That would be Tim, aka LaserWizard

I was also going to say the Chauvet or American DJ units.

(If I recall correctly....) There is also a member, clickamouse, that has been doing large installs of lumia projectors as an art piece in either a museum or mall or something like that who may be able to provide further info.
