BCX Ultra Deluxe VS Spooky 2

Comments from an engineer when Spooky 2 was assessed.

This unit WILL NOT RUN ON APPLE COMPUTER OPERATING SYSTEMS- PC only

What you can do with Spooky

You can select programs, start, and stop them.

You cannot change program parameters.

What you can't do:

You cannot create programs

You cannot change the intensity..

You cannot select a different program- you must turn the machine off & back on again to do that.

They don't appear to offer Raytubes, which have the unique characteristic of differential high voltage light and electricity sources.

Conclusion at this time:

This is an un-acceptable standalone unit, unless someone knowledgeable creates programs that don't need to change and loads them on the machine. It requires computer connection to do anything with it, and it can't be an Apple computer. This makes it complicated, and definitely outside the capability of many people. The software is thorough, but programming is very complicated, even for technical people. Check out Page 29 in their manuals to see how to create a program.

   Several things they (spooky 2) do well: Their equipment is high quality

and is packaged very professionally..

 The website is thorough and documentation is clear and consistent.
