My studio uses White Lightning X1600's wired with LG4X remote. The lights all have 250 W modeling lamps.

Now I'm adding two Einsteins with Cyber Commander to use as the main and fill lights.

They now come with 150 W & 250 W modeling lights, but they recommend 150 W due to heat.

I'm firing all of them with CST's. The X1600's will not be controlled by the CC.

Is anyone sticking with the 250 W bulbs?

I see that I can wake the Einstein up via the CC. Is there a way to put them to sleep with the CC?

Thanks,
Scott

You can go to SETUP>LIGHTSETTINGS>(CH=ALL) POWER=STANDBY

You can also save a set up with the lights off, then just open that memory setting when you need the lights off. If you temporarily need them to not fire, you can change to a group setting where they are not selected from the main screen.
