| Hi, I'm supposed to play a halloween party tomorrow in my friend's backyard and it's supposed to dip to around freezing maybe 1 or 2 degrees higher at night..... is it safe to have my two 800's out there for 4-5 hours? |

If you're using them i see no reason why the heat they generate on their own wont keep them warm enough..
Though having said that. Look for an online manual and search within for the recommended operating temperatures..
I'd do it for you but i'm off to bed.. :) |

A while back my CDJ's ed up because of the weather. I took them to a club. It was freaking hot inside, but outside was really cold. When the club was over, I immediately got my CDJ's and put them in my car, which was cold.
I took them from hot weather to cold weather, condensation happened, and BAM! I had to get them fixed. :( |

actually we are planning on having a few heaters scattered around and it's a pretty cool concept... a few of my friends are trying to start up this snowboarding team so we're having a railjam in the backyard for halloween and I get to supply the beats:)
It's pretty cool though, 16 foot rail plus the kicker and they're gonna film it all so i might post a video perhaps if it goes down nicely hahahaha... thx boys |

Nice!
About a year and a half ago I did a wakeboarding railjam down here that was a lot of fun. Get ready to bring the energy! |

| Hahahaah got over 100 people confirmed in this guy's backyard... and it's my first gig lol. Oh well, people will definitely be way too ed up to care and it isn't exactly an elitist TA critic type group lol, they don't know what a good mix is hahahaha so I can get away with lots. Should be looooots of fun I went yesterday to check out the spot and it looks awesome, I'll try and get some pics up. The guy even set up a camera on the roof to film the wholething, got spotlights lighting the place up, couple speakers and a sub, and he's got a video feed hooked up from the camera to the basement so if people get too cold, head on down to the basement and you can see the comp. on a projection screen.... raelly dope. plus the beats will be fed to the basement as well :) |

josh wink spins vinyl and the rest used laptops.
condensation will up a cdj very fast. Keep them dry.
they were also rotating gear so that they would not mess up ;) |
