Chauvet 4BAR LED Lighting System

Chauvet 4BAR LED Lighting System

"Best portability - great build quality."

Feature:
The footpedal is built very well but has some trouble fitting in the included bag. The built in patterns are great and it does wash lighting without straining your back at gigs. Footpedal cord is nice and long and all of the connections have been solid. No reliability issues so far. Not meant to be treated roughly however. The 4PLAY addition would be spectacular and I would love to go into a gig with that kind of flexibility.

Quality:
I really have to say the 4BAR suprised me with the build quality. I compared it to the ADJ alternative and thought the 4BAR was much more solid on the physical connections. Definately dont abuse this rig but if you treat it right you should be able to get some great use out of it.

Value:
For the price you wont find another wash system that is this portable. Period end of story. The ADJ alternative had a much weaker brightness and the par cans looked flimsy.

Desirability:
Very very sleek looking. It takes the old school look of the big and hot par cans and updates it. Add a 4PLAY to this and youve got a full featured rig that can go anywhere.

Sound:
Built like a tank - great reliability - portability like no other - better than the ADJ alternative.

Ease of Use:
Ease of use is really the whole purpose for getting this system. With two small and light bags you have have an entire wash lighting system that used to take me 5 times the weight and setup before. Set it for the color you want and be done with it. Setup time is virtually none.

Support:
Havent had to deal with Chauvet yet - but given their track record with all the large-scale club installs they do - I think they will be reputable.

Overall:
No problems thus far and my setup and teardown time has been cut in half. Not to mention the overall weight of my gear.

Usual Price: $400

Chauvet TFXUVLED LED Shadow UV Blacklight

Chauvet TFXUVLED LED Shadow UV Blacklight

"Excellent product, reliable performance, low energy consumption, ease of use!"

Feature:
The Chauvet LED Shadow is an amazing product!! I spoke with a chauvet rep, and according to them each of the 192 LED's is only a 1/4 watt of power, so that's about 48Watts, the unit was able to be run off of a 90 Watt Inverter in my car off of the 12V Cigarette lighter adaptor. The dimming functions and the strobe rates are really clean and pack a hell of a punch. AMAZING JOB FROM CHAUVET!!

Quality:
The plastic cover is alittle thin, and I also have witnessed where some of the LED's in the panel lose "blocks" but a slight tap on the fixture fixes that. Could just be a ground or something.

Value:
For the price and functions, Chauvet Delivered using the TFXUVLED fixture! Where else can you find a UV LED strobe ?

Desirability:
I liked the first one so much, I scouted 5 different locations and plenty of phone calls until I found one!

Ease of Use:
Extremely easy to use, the dip switch settings on the back of the unit allow for you to set the strobe rates varying to about 9 different settings, the 10th setting allows for sound activated mode and has a few pre programed LED chase sequences. THe draw back to the chase sequences, it's only in the pre program, you cannot set it to automatically do the LED chases even in DMX mode. ( If there is, it's not listed in the manual and I haven't found it yet.

Support:
Chauvets support is pretty good, but I sometimes feel I'm not getting the correct information. I've sent countless emails to see if I'd get the same info over the phone as I would over the internet with no response.

Overall:
Hopefully a year or two at LEAST! I need about 2-4 more fixtures to really have some fun with them!

Usual Price: $150
