The PTB-1 pan tilt base from Larson Electronics is constructed of die-cast aluminum and powder coated for added corrosion resistance. This pan tilt base enables remote controlling for lights, cameras, and other equipment when mounted to the eight by 10 inch mounting plate, which is capable of supporting up to 100 pounds. The wireless and hard-wired remotes allow operators to rotate the mounted equipment from zero degrees to 355 degrees, while providing a tilting range of -60 degrees to +30 degrees. When securely positioned, the base remains in place until remotely moved. It is durable enough to withstand strong winds, storms, and vibrations.
Hard-wired and wireless remotes are included with this pan tilt base (the hard-wired remote acts as the receiver for the wireless remote). The battery-operated wireless remote supports a wireless key fob, which initiates the following controls: up, down, left, right, and on/off. The wired remote extends 15 feet from the base of the light, while an extra 10 feet of cord runs from the remote to the power source. This unit allows low voltage equipment to be powered in-line with the remote controlled pan tilt base, allowing both units to be powered from a single source. Four pre-drilled holes in each corner of the base of the unit allow operators to mount the base to any flat surface.
“This pan tilt base adds remote operation to units that are normally fixed mount and can provide versatility to lights, cameras, and other electrical equipment weighing less than 100 pounds,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics.
