Pocketful of Miracles! American DJs Revolutionary Pocket Scan Combines Scanner & Laser In One Effect

Its a scanner. . .no, its a laser. . .no, its two effects in one! The revolutionary Pocket Scan, a new intelligent light from American DJ, is as versatile as it is lightweight and compact. Weighing just 10 lbs., this "almost-pocket-sized" effect can be operated as either a color/gobo scanner or a sharp-beam laser -- or both at the same time. A DMX-compatible fixture, the Pocket Scan can "double up" and produce dual effects, because it features simultaneous halogen and laser operation. Whether run as a scanner or laser -- or both -- this little dynamo fixture will put on the big-time light show of a unit many times its size. Loaded with on-board visual effects, the Pocket Scan is equipped with 15 colors plus white including split colors, along with 14 eye-popping gobo patterns. Designed to cover a lot of ground and produce sharp, vivid gobos, the Pocket Scan features a full-focusing lens and X/Y mirror movement, with 170-degree pan and 110-degree tilt. To create its laser effects, the Pocket Scan includes a 5mw Laser Diode with X/Y mirror movement. The Pocket Scan can be operated with a DMX controller, allowing users to create their own programs. Or, it can be run as a sound-activated effect to the beat of the music, or in stand-alone mode to its own internal programs. Another convenient feature is remote control. Users can change programs or black out the lighting effects from up to 100 feet. "At just 10 lbs., the Pocket Scan is the most compact full-featured scanner that American DJ has ever made," said Scott Davies, general manager of American DJ. "It is similar to our popular Mighty Scan, but has been scaled down to about one-third the weight, so its extremely portable and great for places where space is at a premium."Plus, the Pocket Scan offers a new twist -- the ability to operate as both a scanner and laser," Davies pointed out. "This revolutionary feature allows the Pocket Scan to put on a really unique and spectacular light show. Being two effects in one, it gives users greater value for the dollar." Another feature that users will appreciate is the Pocket Scans digital DMX LED display. This eliminates the need for dipswitches to set the DMX setting, making the Pocket Scan easier to use. Priced at just $499.95 suggested retail, the Pocket Scan comes with a ZB-JCR 12-volt, 100-watt, 1000-hour lamp.
