What people are saying about the Lexicon

Amazing! This reminds me of back in the day when a guy took it upon himself to catalog all of the moving lights... This is valuable information.

Richard Cadena, "Electricity for the Entertainment Electrician & Technician"

If you're a Gaffer, Key Grip, Best Boy Electric/Grip, or DP; you ostensibly won't find a more convenient catalog containing pertinent information on gear.

I used it to study for the (Local 52) test and if I ever Gaffed, planned to use it to balance electrical loads.
