I've never come across an MR16 with integrated lens, but you can get basic skeletal architectural fixtures that have an adjustable lens on them. IKEA does...

Looks like its made for trouble shooting. Looks great!. I thought I would put the phone number below the web address but then after a few mins thought...
Don't put the phone number on it! You'll end up with International calls at 4am in the morning. A website address lets people go and look for the technical...
I don't have my copy of the new DMX spec handy, but if you haven't, you should check it out as there are some specific markings now suggested/required for...
... I have the DMX spec and the RDM spec and checked both of them. The funny <>_ marking over on the right is one of those special markings we're all supposed...

Just make sure they are surface mount chips (which I'm sure they would be these days). Any competant service shop should have a hot air rework station these...
Hi, ... Actually we replaced more chips due to bad sockets as due to malfunction chips. Today I would prefer an smt driver which is mounted to the PCB. Any...
... Many moons ago, before SMT even existed, I used to repair circuit boards. We had far more failures of the expensive gold plated sockets than we had of the ...

Oh OK Jerry, you win. The general onus seems to be that soldering to the PCB is best. It might be worth adding a small protection arrangement like Pulsar did...
... This is a can of worms and I'm not going to pursue it any further after this. I will simply say that in OUR experience it has been extremely valuable for...
... Didn't mean it as a contest. I've just fought sockets all my career and so am somewhat biased. Probably the "best" one was a switching board I designed...
... Just a question, where do the customers get the replacement chips? It's not like Radio Shack (in USA) carries chips anymore (not that they ever had a lot...

... I try to do what the market wants, not what I want. "The customer is always right." and all that rot. Anyway, I think I'll use the chips with built-in...
Most big lighting hire companies keep good stocks of all common chips and on the big shows the spares kit might have some spare driver chips. After that they...
