[QUOTE="Marlow Wilson, post: 34511, member: 47"] Re: Power Drops I've yet to make the powercon transition - mostly because none of the companies and venues I work with have either, but also because I don't really have the need. All my now-outdated SOS is IEC input with a few exceptions, and all the venues I deal with have edisons, range plugs or Cam Locks. Sexy powercon stage stringers are...., well...... , sexy - but I've yet to see how they'll make me more money unfortunately. It also means more redundant cabling for me(powercon-powercon and edison-powercon for wall power crap, plus powercon-iec for the SOS or more drops -YUCK!!!). My stage boxes are based on some surplus military tent power boxes which have a perpendicular split to the quad box and a female edison on a short lead (I've swapped most the quad boxes and female outputs compared to the one in the photo, as well as removed the cover - not perfect but it works). The rest are all regular Killark quads. For the code police, no the stage boxes are not SOOW - they are milspec. Never been an issue and I always have plenty of quads with SOOW if it ever were an issue. [ATTACH=CONFIG]149906.vB5-legacyid=1972[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
