Right on Rick and thanks for watching sir. I probably really meant to say corrosion because aluminum does corrode but I was on a roll. L O L . Either way I love Chauvet products. I own Freedom pars, strips, sticks, H1's, MiniKintas, intimidators, mini lasers, scorpion, Vue 1.1s (I know right?), D-Fi XLR PACK, FlareCon, D-Fi Hubs and a partridge in a pear tree. One of my goals is to have Chauvet send me a product for review. That would be so awesome!!!
