Its taken two weeks to fix but its done! I bought this from eBay for £10 knowing that it was faulty, the seller apparently never looked inside so he didnt know if it was just a fuse or not. After going through 4 fuses and almost being electrocuted I found it was the transformer which after breaking open the copper coil was actually melted.

So, new transformer, new fuse and new bulb in there and its working perfectly :D. Bought for £10, repaired for £20 and worth about £50.

Edit: Sorry, huge pic.

Not showing off quite how much it looks in person, the 100W bulb actually gives out beams in a lit room with no smoke :O. Its focused so much that you can actually see the coil on the bulb which I need to refocus. Its meant to be squares.

Its sound reactive in two ways, simple rotating to the sound in different directions or flashing and rotating in different directions.

Cant wait to try in a smoky room with lasers and strobes :D

Anyone know of smoke coming out of these?

I think, and hope, its coming from the light bulb area seeing as that's where the smoke appears to originate from and there is a slight smoky look on top of the unit above the bulb.

Are they meant to me like that? Its rather unnerving seeing smoke coming out of the unit like that.
