"Horrible."

Overall: 0.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
CRAP! Don't buy it. The quality overall is bad. It's not like i bought just one and it was just a fluke that it sucked but I bought 16! and they all were crap. There was like 3 or 4 that would just do there own thing no matter what color the DMX was set on. They are just the worse possible light you could buy if you need washes. Go with a different brand of this one.
Features
The chain-able power is about the only nice thing on these.
Ease of Use
Dip switches suck. So it makes a bad situation (having to use dips for setting the dmx channel) even worse. Not to mention the fact they come set up to be sound activated and a few of them were just completely broke and didn't have the sounds activation feature.
Quality
Half of the 16 I bought didn't work. They are like cheap nasty metal housing that really suck. They looked like a 5 year old Ethiopian slave in a sweat shop mad then with a rusty screw driver. I got mine and they were each a little different. Some had different types of dip switches and some
Value
These are way to much money. There are other prodects for the same price that are HUNDREDS of times better.
Manufacturer Support
These lights sucked so bad I just took the loss and returned the one i could. Chauvet was no help on this one.
The Wow Factor
They were covered in a oil when I got them. Maybe from the milling processes and the nasty metal housings?
