Perfect Storm Category 5
THREE THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY WATTS CONTROLLER!
model #PSC5:
"The Perfect Storm" is a tempest that may happen only once in a century! It is a meteorologist’s colloquialism for a hurricane or typhoon created by a rare combination of factors. These storms are some of the strongest and most terrifying manifestations of nature's strength.
This Spooky F/X Lightning Show Controller comes with a special sound effects CD.
This Special CD has a selection of 9 different types of lighting storms:
Track 1… One Occasional Thunder
Clap
Track 2… Distant slow Thunder *
Track 3… Rolling Thunder
Track 4… Thunder with long pauses
Track 5… Rain with Thunder
Track 6… Wind with Thunder
Track 7… Wind and Distant slow Thunder *
Track 8… Wind with One Occasional Thunder clap
Track 9…Rain with Wind and Thunder
* The light flashes and then after a few seconds the thunder booms. However this duration varies to make it sound like the lighting is moving in closer and then farther away.
Each track is about 5 minutes long. The duration between the claps of thunder is NOT repeated. Put another way, you would have to listen to the track for at least 10 minutes before you could hear a pattern in the duration between thunder strikes. Most of your audience will never detect a pattern because 5 minutes is too long to even try.
These custom-made sound effects are played using your CD player (not included) which is connected to the controller box by your CD player's HEAD PHONE output. You then connect the controller to your amplifier, or your amplified speaker system (not included) with the provided patch cable.
You can also connect it to your boom box or stereo system using a cassette player adapter (not included but easy to buy locally). Note: You must use our CD with this equipment, it will not work with a third party sound effects source. The CD is included in the purchase price.
This exclusive system is another great Spooky F/X innovated design. We have been selling the original Perfect Storm for many years on the internet.
This controller is designed to handle power well beyond all other lighting controllers in this price range.
CONTROLS 26 AMPS OF AC ELECTRICITY!
THAT IS 3120 WATTS!
AND unlike many other lightning controller units, the Perfect Storm
Category 5 works with BOTH incandescent flood lights and /or strobe lights!
No other lighting controller at this price can handle this high number of amps at the same time!
And that means no other lighting controller at this price can handle the number of light bulbs or strobe lights that the Perfect Storm Category 5 from Spooky F/X can!
Our product, unlike other lightning controller units is NOT just a "color organ". It is designed to flash both incandescent and strobe lights in synchronization with the thunder but it is not effected at all by the wind and rain sounds!
You may use any standard screw-in base flood lamp available from your local hardware store. Both tungsten and halogen bulbs work, but halogen bulbs produce a more intense white light.
In most cases even normal household 60 or 100 watt light bulbs will work great because your spectators are normally in very low light levels. Thus, any sudden flash of a bright light will look like lightning. Using 100 watt bulbs will allow you to connect 31 bulbs (for 31 different locations in your Haunt) to the same controller. Or use FIVE photographers bulbs at 600 watts each! Or even a couple of 1500 watt bulbs!
One very good application is to mix different light sources to get a full and realistic lighting effect by mixing incandescent blue flood lights with flashing strobe lights.
This way you get the visual POP from the strobe yet the visual DECAY of the incandescent light. This Idea was sent to us by a customer. Using our Perfect Storm to work a combination of different types of lights is very cool and a clever use of our high power capacity lighting controller.
NO OTHER LIGHTNING CONTROLLER EVEN CLOSE TO THIS PRICE CAN DO WHAT THIS ONE CAN!
Cost is only $185 plus S&H
Normally The Perfect Storm can be delivered 2 weeks after payment is received.

Hey! Got the system up & running. Borrowing 2 - 650 wt strobes from a
photographer friend, and running 3 legs of rope lights, looks awesome!
Thanks again, for your timely service, and will recommend you to others.

I have the Perfect Storm by Spooky F/X and it is great. This will be
the 4th season running it and it hasn't given me any problems.
... you'll find this to be one of the
things people talk about every year.

Hello,
... we received the Perfect Storm and set it up that night to
test it. It was awesome! Way more than we expected. It's been awfully
difficult not to show it to anyone until our Halloween party. Thank you
so much.

We hooked up my Perfect Storm Thunder/Lightning
machine that I bought from www.SpookyFX.com
and man is that thing cool. Those of you that don't have one have to get
one. The CD of sound effects that it comes with is awesome. We've barely
just begun to experiment with it and are blown away. Permanent grins on all
our faces as folks on the sidewalk jumped when the thunder struck. Didn't
hurt that we ran it through a 400 watt amplifier and hooked up a set of 200
watt speakers. My father's bringing huge powered subwoofers to hook to it
tomorrow so the neighbors on the other side of the cemetery can experience
the Perfect Storm as well.

Got the controller today and have been testing
it all night. It works wonderfully.
Very nice job. I'm glad I went with yours as the microphone connection on those
knock-offs would have been a disaster in my application (and most others I would
imagine).
Lt Col Brandon
Note from Spooky F/X: The microphone connection Brandon is referring to is many other company's lighting controllers connect to the sound effects. They use a microphone to listen to the sounds in the room. This is also sometimes called an AIR LINK.

Works like a charm, no Halloween pun
intended. Great
product. Can't wait for the 31st!

I'm very impressed with the SpookF/X's Perfect Storm.
I keep adding to it and haven't max'ed it
out yet. I mix three types of light for my effect (strobes, blue,
and incandescent with the clamp-on silver reflectors from Big Lots)
When you look at it in person it really looks great! Of
course a lot of loud bass with the thunder just brings it all together. By
hitting multiple senses more or less at once the crowd loves it.
You're really looking for the overall combined effect, which is so good in
person.

Hi Bob
We like your idea of mixing different light sources to get the full and realistic lighting effect. The idea of mixing incandescent blue flood lights with flashing strobe lights.
This way you get the visual POP of the strobe yet the visual DECAY of the incandescent light. Using our Perfect Storm to work a combination of different types of lights is very cool and clever use of our high power capacity lighting controller.
Thanks
