4500 Rota-Beam

[gtpts27]

Another entry in my quest to establish LED lights as collectibles...
A 4500 Rota-Beam I built from parts I purchased mostly used (ie at a significant discount to new) over a couple years.

Scott, That bar is awesome !!!!!
Just when I said that I don't like LEDs............. You come up with that.
All amber would really ROCK.

Thanks Pete (though credit is to Whelen not me). I don't know if the simulated LED rotator is necessarily more effective than a bar with just flashing LEDs, but it's certainly prettier. That's particularly the case with the patterns that roll the light back and forth like the geared AeroDynics do so beautifully.

Very cool

Looks great! I’m inclined to agree less effective but prettier. I’m finishing a 4500 myself with 12 6over6’s and 2 400 series strobes on a opticom PS. It’s one bright sucker!

Nicely done!

If you have a line on any more rota beam reds for the 4500 let me know.

Thanks!
Seth

Just when I saw a favorite flash pattern, another one comes along. Very nice setup.

That is a beautiful product. Especially with the incorporation of mirrors. The best patterns are at 0:56 and at 2:50. I don't like the seizure-inducing hyper-speed patterns.
