Chauvet Vue III LED Moonflower Light

Feature:
Excellent automatic sound to coversion, nearly 500 LED lights are unbelievably low power consuming (24 watts!), but very powerful. Under $300, and still DMX compatible. Power passthrough ports, saving on cable creep. Only thing saving me from giving it a ten is that I now know I have to better wash lights (this is SO bright, my current small pars are completely overwhelmed :-) First use was a school dance, in a gym. Light easily ran to back walls with clear effects.

Quality:
Looked fantastic out the box, carefully packed. Bracket accessories packaged separately, all parts easily identified. Ten minutes from opening the box, to hanging and running.

Value:
I have bought so many bulbs and extra parts over the years just to keep "simple" lights running, only to burn them up again and again. This light has virtually no replacement needs, longterm COG is unbelievably low. HUGE light from a small low power device.

Desirability:
Even turned off this light looks unbelievably sexy. The brushed aluminum case, sturdy bracket all look expensive. The front "lens" looks like something out of Star Wars. People WILL stop and stare at this, even when it is off.

Sound:
No sound :-), LED light

Ease of Use:
Plug it in. Turn it on. Push the sound activator plug (protects internals during shipping) in. Set sound sensor to lowest it will respond to. No brainer. Have not set up DMX yet.

Support:
no experiences yet.

Overall:
I figure I will be satisfied with this light for a LONG time, as it completely blew away my expectations for the price. I can see myself adding another and some new LED wash effects. This was my first experience with an LED device, and I intend to replace ALL of my lights (except lasers and strobes) with LED now.
