230W 7R Moving Head Light,16 Prisms 13 Colors 14 Patterns, Stage Lights 16/20 CH DMX512 Sound Activated DJ Lights for Parties Wedding Church Stage Lighting 0-100° Liner Dimming

I was more than just a little surprise and pleased when I received this moving head light. It's a beast! Very bright with powerful motors to move the lighting head around. I first set it up to be sound activated and I was not disappointed. it worked great!Then I plugged it into my DMX board. WOW.... lots of great lighting effects, easy to control and did I mention that this thing is BRIGHT?I've used moving head lights that cost twice this much and this one will hold its own with any of them. It has built in fans that are about the same noise level as other lighting instruments of this type so if you've used moving head lights in the past you know what you're getting into there.I'm not going to list all the options you have with this plugged into a light board. Suffice it to say there are a number of them and they all look great. The colors are bright and crisp and the entire light seems very well built.Setting up this light is easy and the menu's are simple to move through. All in all it's just a really great quality light and it's priced well below other lights that are of a similar size with similar features.I should mention that this thing is pretty heavy. You'll need a pretty strong truss system if you intend to hang it.Just a great light and a really nice addition to my light show.

This thing is extraordinary. It’s also really heavy, so be careful when taking it out of the box. I really wish they included a hard case for this thing because one it is very heavy and it would be helpful being able to roll it out Anne 2. It needs protection because it is an optical instrument, I am working on the exact dimensions. I need for the hard case enough area for phone protection and you will need at least 3 inches around either side because this thing is so heavy.The build quality is extraordinary. This thing is professional equipment through and through with a premium fit and finish there is absolutely nothing cheap or janky about this thing. It looks like it was stolen from a Taylor Swift show.It has a powerful motor and intuitive controls and is DMX capable. Comes with the mounting bracket set and the DMX cable and a power.The dimensions are roughly 18 inches on the side in a cube shape so you’re gonna need a big boy of a hard case. You can go a little bit smaller on the depth except that’s the area that’s going to take most of the weight so I would look for a, 2 foot hard case that’s 2 feet wide and 2 feet deep in the interior dimensions.

I do a number of events as a DJ and some clients also ask me to provide lighting. Most of it is pretty basic and I can get by with some random effects on a light bar or small truss, and some PAR cans spread around. However, having a spot or gobo are really nice for more demanding clients. The construction of this light is very good and it is definitely pro-sumer to professional level, at least by my standards. I don’t have an expensive light controller, I just use a ADJ myDMX Buddy which is entry level at best. Even so, I was able to acquire this light and run it through a few simple scenes. It’s powerful enough to use in a mid-size to large event room and a little fog will really make an impact with this. It’s heavy so make sure you have it on an adequate stand and that it is high enough. Be careful about the balance the higher up you mount it and always use safety straps. I had it on an 8’ truss and it worked well, but I feel like if it was even higher, it would have been more dramatic. Since it is large and a bit heavy, it’s won’t be the most portable fixture in your gear and may be best suited for a static location at a single venue. That being said, it’s easy to set up and get working so as long as you protect it, you shouldn’t have any issues carting it around for mobile work. The build quality is good but I don’t know how the gears and more sensitive parts will stand up to a lot of abuse. It didn’t run any more hot than similar lights I have and heat dissipation seemed to be adequate.For the best effect, I think these lights work best in pairs, which means you have to make the choice between one expensive light or two more affordable lights. For the quality and function of this light, I would say this is a good value in the $300 to $350 range. It was $499 when I received it and I couldn’t afford a second light if they stayed at that price level.

The media could not be loaded. I ordered this light to what advances have been made with LED technology in moving head lights. I have had a chance to test this fixture and will present my results.Features I liked:• The LED is a very bright white.• All color changes are on a color wheel. There are 13 colors plus open; adjacent colors can be split. The colors are saturated.• The gobo wheel has 14 patterns plus open.• There is a 16 part prism that can be static, or rotate forward/reverse.• Colors, gobos, and prism controls are independent of one another, offering a wide selection of customized effects.• There is a strobe function.• The fixture is very lightweight. The two side handles make it easy to lift and move.• The on screen display makes it easy to set up.• The power cord has a Powercon connector.My biggest complaint is with inaccuracies in the description of the instrument:• This light does NOT dim smoothly. There is NO linear dimming -- there is no dimming at all. There is a DOUSER; this cuts the light in a VERY noticeable crescent shape as it moves across the light beam. This is very annoying and makes the light unacceptable if dimming is needed. I see this as a MAJOR design mistake. There is no reason for lack of electronic dimming in the design.• The gobos do NOT rotate; although they can shake.• In order to get any gobo rotation, you must insert the prisms. The image the prisms create -- from the gobo pattern -- is the end result.I liked the small footprint and lightweight design. Not having to worry about a lamp burnout is a good feature too. But the lack of electronic dimming makes this light a poor choice for my needs.
