lighten up! i was kidding jesus. and as for the 'girl' i was wondering who she was not to dig as you are imply, but was just remembering.
707 has a higher concentration of filter at around 400nm than 181 so thus would emit a larger amount of UV (still non comperable to that of a specially designed fitting.with regards to exposure i agree that the effect of UV can be damaging in the quantity of exposure, however if it was occationally used throughout the night i could not see a problem with exposure!
im sorry by implying that the square considered cannons would breach the HSE advisory regulations, as ive only worked with these cannons in large venues not the squiddly square, also in other countrys. now lets grow up and not try sound so big by saying all that you have done ay!
all my previous comments have been to not take offence no to be serious, however with your comments below im sorry but im not really liking your attitude, i gather you also will be thinking the same of me.
good day to you sir!
