need vertical light mover plz help
hey guy so here is my problem(after much looking i can't find a vertical Light mover). i have 4 lights that need to go up and down automaticly, just like a light mover that would go from side to side( just up and down instead). so im thinking that a dc motor with a pulley for lights would work fine, but i need some sensor to lower them to a point and bring them back up to were they started. any idea's of what this looks like........"a PWM circuit controlled by a 555 would be a good candidate.."said this guy i know..so what does one of those look like, and were can i get one that i can connect with a dc motor. anyone have any idea's for me...as much help would be great thank you

The problem is you are going to need a way to gear down the motor. The motors in the light movers spin much faster and are geared down.
Your easiest option may be to take a horizontal light mover and convert it to a vertical mover. |

No problems, pm me if you ever have any questions. This site is dumb and doesn't allow pm's until 50 posts... but when you get there
