Before there was Sunbeam, there was Lamp Electronics. In May 2002, Sidewinder
Computers introduced Lamp Electronics to the U.S. market in the form of the
first available, pre-packaged cold cathode light kits. Lamp Electronics has been
busy creating a line of new fan controllers and high-power capable rheobus
panels.
The Lamptron Fan-Atic is a military style switch baybus, capable of switching
devices up to 30 watts from Off to 7 volts or to 12 volts DC. For 12v DC selection, a Red LED is displayed,
Blue LED is shown for 7v DC selections, and devices turned off do not display an
LED light. The retail package includes five (5) long 3-pin Extension cables of
the highest quality, with thick gauge wire suitable for up to 60 watt devices. Note:
during our testing, we noted that high power devices may require a 2-3 second
power-up prep time to begin operation.
Features
- 5 Independent Control Channels
- Illuminated Dual Color LED (Blue/Red) on each channel
- Control over 60 watts per channel: Laboratory tested for a total power
consumption of 300 watts across the baybus
- Easy Access - 5 3-pin Control Connectors, 1 4-pin Molex connector at the
rear panel
- CNC milled heavy metal faceplate and drilled mesh grill
