They don't tell you about the 15 mins on/15 mins off! Oct 23, 2007
By Little Bird
"Tweet"
I was pretty excited to get this for my disco party at home. However I couldn't believe it when I opened the box and there was a red tag on the frame saying that you should use it for 15 minutes, turn it off and back on again after 15 minutes! It is also written inside the booket that comes with it. DIDN'T THEY THINK THIS WAS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO BE INCLUDED IN THE INFORMATION ONLINE????? It was not mentioned once in all the product information that I read on multiple sites!! I'm really annoyed because I wanted a product that would produce lights for several hours of dancing....not 15 minutes on, 15 minutes off! I plan to be too busy dancing to worry about timing my party lights.
We set it up this evening and the lights look cool. We haven't tried it with music yet.
But this product does NOT meet my expectations. I am very dissapointed and fully regret buying it! Of course it's not worth me sending it back due to the cost of shipping etc....

I wished it worked more consistently! Jan 08, 2008
By Nanciejeanne

I agree that I wasn't aware of the "duty cycle" where you have to turn it off to cool down. I do not use these lights professionally, I just wanted it for family parties. This appliance requires 15 minutes off after 15 minutes on. It does indeed get super hot. I don't have a T-bar or anything to hang it from, so I was concerned with placing such a hot, metal item on wooden furniture. My solution was to set it on top of a saucepan...I used an empty coffee can last year! (I am sure you could use silicone oven mitts or something too, if you didn't want to hang it or use a saucepan!)
Another minus for me, it didn't "move" to the music unless the music was really, really loud. Now I like it a little loud, and placed this right next to the stereo, but still nothing. When I tapped my finger on the casing, it did move. There is a knob that is supposed to adjust "sensitivity" but turning it completely either way didn't work for me.
Once in a while a song (played at the same volume) would make it work. My nephew joked that it only worked with singers who have an English accent...as David Bowie and the Eurythmics would usually make it work for some reason! It could be due to your bass/treble, we never did figure it out! Or maybe in a larger banquet-hall type room, the music can be played louder next to this light, but still not deafen the people (like in my room about 20x20).
When it worked though, it was really fun. The different colored lights looked like slash marks all over the ceiling walls and floor and indeed changed direction and color with the beat.
I don't regret buying it, but have to remember to turn it off (I just count 5 songs on, 5 songs off...that was close) and we liked it even when it wasn't moving..or we just tapped it. Careful with the heat, though.

great disco light Jul 16, 2008
By Niranjan Upadhayay It was just a blast for the money I paid especially in combination with fog machine I can see all the different color rays passing through the fog which keeps changing the color based on voice activation. My cousins Arun Pandey who visited us they had blast during this 4th of July

Music needs to be very loud Apr 07, 2011
By Sander Bought this so my kids can have their own disco party. However, the music needs to be rather loud for this to work. If you are going to use it with loud music, it works surprisingly well.
