i bought two of the $30 pars to light up my facade worked great for bout a year.... then one caught on FIRE!!!! at my gig.
luckily it was during set up before anyone showed up. great video.
That's wild
Got 4 of the cheap o's and they have a knob for sensitivity works well for about 12-15 bucks off Ebay
As long as I have some colourful lights bouncing around at a party while the music's playing, I'm not particularly bothered about better quality. I want cheap gear that will make me some profit quicker. If I have to pay 3 times the price for my gear, I'll default to cheaper items every time. And seeing as my DJ gear has been robbed so many times I can't even count, the cheaper items are a MUST option for me.
Sounds like it's time for you to buy a gun lol
Unfortunately, Firearms are illegal in the UK or I would, believe me.
I feel your pain brother that hurts . I have good insurance now so I get to upgrade any time somebody steals
I wish I lived in the UK so I could steal your gear Nazi fuck
@@snagglepussrex8108 I duno if you noticed but I was speaking in English not German and Nazi's were German, you uneducated fuck!
good video i have 10 pcs of the $30 i got it 3 yrs ago and still working good im using on walls
Good Video Rick!! I have both ADJ Mega Tri and the cheap.. for most weddings the cheap works great (par 36), even as uplights if using DMX mixer. To solve the cord issue.. Get a small tube of clear silicone and squirt a drop where it goes into fixture. You can always get it out if needed. Don't use super glue. I use my Mega Tri's when we're doing more corporate events where image is everything!!
I've been researching to buy my first lights and struggling to decide on what to get. Your video comparison was awesome and for just a little more investment, I'll get the ADJ pars so it's nicer to work with. Thank you.
aha, however if you want a good shopping parlight experience and I suggest that you guys are better to add your budgets, so that own a good effect.🤗🤗
good breakdown on these lights,just getting into this lark,but your opinion and demo made sense,so ill be looking for lights/fixtures with this info in mind now,thanks a heap!!!
I have 4 ultra pack lights and I really like the in/out power because I can chain link up to 30 with just one power cord.
Also, easier to control with a light controler.
Been looking into lights lately, and realised they now have PARS or moving heads that have Red Green Blue White Amber + UV leds on them. Each diode can do multicolors rather than being a fixed single colour.
For a disco/chill room at home, USB RGB strip lights may suffice so if you are not a gigging DJ check them out as well.
"30$ PAR" is even an overstatement. There are sellers on Amazon offering 10-packs of these for 120€, so "13$ PAR" is more accurate. And for that they are incredible value.
physixger I haven’t been able to properly use them with DMX controller. Have you?
@@DJiMike1 DMX on mine works as intended and instantly. I use a cheap Tomshine 192 channel DMX controller. Connect them either directly by XLR cable or using a wireless receiver, set them to "d001" or any other DMX channel you like the control to start at. Then activate the respective "fixture" button on your controller and you should be able to control the channels. The channel definitions on mine are: 1 total brightness, 2 red, 3 green, 4 blue, 5 strobe/transition, 6 speed. (I know there are other versions with slightly different channel setups out there)
Keep in mind that to have them light in a certain colour, you have to set both the brightness channel and the respective colour channels to something non-zero.
Thanks a lot for such a great review!
Hey bro, I'm using since 7 year always the same 30 dollars par led, they make a beautiful nice light for parties and weddings, but i'm agreed with you about the cables and the duration of the quality the broke so easy if you use them a lot as mobile DJ as me..that's why i found you nice video to make comparation
Lixada 7x10 RGBW LED par. Has the same in/out as the ADJ, it's brighter, and is only $40 each. I've had mine for over four years without any failures. I also only use DMX, so I don't care about the built in programs.
Sound mode for the 30 dollar ones i dont think is that bad, its very responsive and if you link more im sure itll be good
I have the 30 dollar par. I use them for up light and they work fine. If you have the money then sure get the adj but if you are just starting out get 30 par.
Great video once again... take care of you gear and it will take care of you ..cheap or expensive.
I have 2 mega hex pars and they work like a charm.
Hmm we made terrible experiences with cheap lighting (short lifetime and occasionally they will just not work...). Then again as general Stage-Tech engineers we tend to have more light-uptime than DJs. Nowadays we only go for name-brand lighting and spend the extra money. Our recommendation for RGB Pars: The Stairville Outdoor Tri LEDs (100$ for RGB and 130$ for RGBA Variants).
Useful Sound Mode, very Bright, Great Build Quality, Outdoor capable, what more could you want?
Great content, good sir.
Sup rick, here since the beginning and I really enjoy your videos keep em up but when is the prx712 review coming ? Btw congrats on 1000 subscribers
+Mike Proios ill answer this now since that video is filmed and will be out within the next 2 weeks!
DJ Rick Web Happy to see that you replied so quickly. Thanks for the answer , Also another quick question that I thought. Did you see the new prx 800 series and if yes do you think that they are more worth than the prx700 series?
+Mike Proios yes I am aware and covered in some what in the review. But basically its the exact same speaker as the the 700. All the 800 series speakers using the exact same amps, woofers, and tweeters as the 700 series. The only thing that is new is they added a eq app via wifi for the speakers. Which is pretty sweet, but not worth the difference in price personally. Especially since the 700 series went way down in price!
DJ Rick Web Thnaks for your reply once again you seem to know a lot and believe me I learned a lot from you. I own some powered speakers myself and since the day I got em I started looking and learning things about audio in general. Keep it up once again, I am proud to be here since 54 subscribers
These any good to light a set for a play?
You can get RGBW pars with better color mixing for a lower price. I got 4 for $65.
Great video !!
Have you or anybody here have any experience with the Chuavet GigBar IRC? Thoughts? Is it cheap looiking?
Hi Rick, love your vidoes, you honestly are one of them people on youtube who are entertaining to watch, (i'm not just saying that btw) i'm starting out in the live sound buisness and I was intrested in entering the giveaway comp, I dont care about the quality, all I care about is that its a place to start out, thanks a million!
- Ev
Hey Rick, good stuff. A suggestion, before you do a review, you might try writing out your comparison points. Not a whole script, mind you, but at least a general outline. I think it would make your video appear more polished and professional. Keep up the good work!
+John Wood agree I go off top of my head for every video
DJ Rick ,we have that light before and what i did is i cover the mic or the sensor of that 30 dollar light and it lessen the sensitivity :-)
this is great! Thank you
I really like this video. Helped me out a lot since I bought these lights 7 years ago and for some reason never used them.
I have the ADJ Pros and the remote but never used any setup like this before.
When I first used the remote I was a bit frustrated because I figured all I had to do was pick a color. I didn't buy these for DJing I bought them for color backlights for photo and video shoots.
This is literally the only video about these lights.
Do you still use them to this day?
I do not. We used battery lights now
Generic fixtures are good if you have clients that won't pony up the dough. also, if the light is too sound active, cover the mic with tape. If the manufacturers of the cheap lights would make them power linkable, they would sell more.
You can modify them to be power linking. It's pretty easy to do
Hi Rick, this is a very nice review. I'm a mobile dj and I just purchased this $30 par 36 rgbw cheap lights. I got this as an addition for my chauvet washlights because I'm on a budget and I need these for uplighting. Do you have the giveaway or is gone by now?
Tip: remove the sticker on the $30 par, the mic works a lot better.
question to the ADJ mega tripar plus with the 5 leds, can I adjust the sound sensitivity on it?
No
i asos have the RGB light with scaterd leds alover it...and a profile!
Btw someone who is starting on with scene lighting and buying Led lamps. Don't make same mistake as I did. I bought Led lamps RGBW that had 24 leds each on 12W. 12W is really strong and it hurts in eyes when having those pointed from close distance to the singer in scene. Instead you should buy something like 50 leds each on 3W or similar.
Use a dimmer.
Bro I have 8 the $30 I buy 2 years ago and still working
I play in a Rock and Roll cover band with mostly Small - Medium bar stages. I would be using these on the sound setting for the most part to start. (Our guitarist who owned our lights before just left the band so I'm looking to begin to invest in lights) Would you recommend the 30$ par for this application (I'd be able to buy 4) or invest more into the Mega ParPlus (and get 2 for now) I do own 8 OLD stationary par cans with individual non changing lights, and a stage riser that was given to me from my fathers old band... lookin for advice to build on. Thanks Man!
Like I said in my review they're like a strobe light on sound active mode.
Ok I thought so. Would you recommend the Mega Tripar profile plus over the Chauvet DJ SLimpar T6? Similar price and specs... THoughts?
***Mega Tripar Plus, not the Profile
Yes I would get the adj versions over it
What do u use to transport your lights from gig to gig my orginal boxes are so beat up I have changed to a tote with bubble wrap inside
Accu case bags
I have a bunch of the $30 pars you do know you can change the sensitivity right? its in the menu, they are built very thin but work well on a tight budget. mine were by eyourlife
+Paul Gariepy mine dont have sensitivity adjustments
well I necessarily don't believe that because I have a lot of my lights that are not brand names and I've had them for about 5 years and they're still working pretty good had not had any problems with them and still have in my shows going
Obscenities shine. I use involight led par189 diodes 18 to 9 watts is very bright.
i personally prefer the stairville flood panel 150
those pars are like the mega par profile bit all the plugs are on 1 side and its only £30 and they are amazing quality for what you get, i would suggest getting some
I have a stairville mover and I love it.
which ones do you have, i have 2 mh-x50's and i love them
What kind of lights would you use to outline a square/rectangular dance floor area?
+Kyle Batson depends on the venue
Hello, do you have the $30 dollars par DMX setings? i have few of those but i can't control them with my ShowXpress software cause i don't have the DMX addresses or configurations. thanks
The dmx settings are different for each brand of the $30 pars. Check your manual
I understand the thing is that i loss mine since i bought like 3 years ago, now i want touse it with the software to control them... but thanks for the answer
if loss that's nanual, all of no problem, just you can take this video for your par can display, maybe , I can teaching you how to control them with your showxpress software.
Jose Antonio Tabares I have the same issue using a DMX controller
DJ Rick Webb. Great vid bro. I know this is an old vid but I'm looking for some great cheap wireless pars. Any ideas?
Cheap. Go Chinese. There is no such thing as a cheap name brand wireless par.
Nice bro!!!
hi i just wanted to know is there any way you can make a tutorial video on how you have your lights hooked up to the wireless dmx and what i would have to buy in order to get that working that way thank you
+Julio Galindo sure a lets talk dmx video will go on the long list of videos to make lol.
I got 8 generic Par cans for 101$ on eBay and the colors are awesome
Hi Rick, I have a lixada moving head spider (not the triangle one), am I able to controll it with the adj rgb3c ir? Or its just for par lights? If not so which one you recommend me to use
+Francisco Garces that won't even come close to controlling it. You need something that can do x y controls
DJ Rick Web , I had tested and some how the controller just spin right and left each led line but don't control lights at all (led don't turn on) so I need a different controller a think. But don't know wich one
+Francisco Garces probably cus. The x and y channels are the first ones listed
nice video!!! I have a bunch of knock off lights the only things I hate are the cheap plastic build quality, and the blue and green LED colors are a shade different than my chauvet lights. not sure what a true green or blue led color is though.. but they perform very well + stay very cool. I can't complain for how cheap they are!! I have some videos of them if anyone wants to see..
i know about those lights , those do the job right and you are able to make ur money back fast.
I'd like to see them in action
Nice vid, I use $30 pars but just to light up my facade and scrim wrapped speakers when the need arises for them. They're great for that purpose but as you implied, I wouldn't recommend them to be used for dancefloor or decorative up lighting.
can you control multiple par profiles with one remote?
+John McDermitt yes
Hey rick love channel dj from uk here. I got the cheap pars and I got 4 adj mega tripar profile plus. Am struggling to get the cheap pars to master slave with the profile pluses. Any ideas?
+cheesey0789 if the dmx channels dont match up between the 2 types of lights they wont work.
Dmx blows my mind feel really dumb
awesome video..
I have opened Similar 30 dollar lights and soldered wireless PCB board into them and made the wireless Dmx.
what is your favourite music
I have two Mega hex pars, two SlimPar 56 lights, and two 5p hexes
Aye man, I own my own DJ business, I’m sussing about for cheap $30 lights but I found a bundle with an ICU plug, do you think it’ll be worth it still?
Personally no. Just cus they life span and reliability won't be there.
I would not buy the 30 dollar pars. I would buy some more expensive hex pars from HS lite (based in Guangzhou), Chauvet or Elation.
Hey Dj Rick Web. I am a new dj and I Have about 6 of these and You are correct in all aspects. But it will get you thru. I use them on a solid color mode of uplighting small / medium venues. People are just satisfied to have light. I got four for about $55 in a package. First two had cheap power cables second four has good three prong. I want to dmx them for control with maybe a simple obey 3. The better stuff comes after more gigs. Whats ur opinion. Dont see giveaway link tho.
+DJ JD the link is for the video it will pop up and the end of this video. Better stuff does come as you get more funds to work with to afford it.
I have two $40.00 dollar pars with remotes and I can change mic sensitivity for sound active mode with the remotes.
Where did you get the stand to set up the lights?
Amazon. Search dj light stand. Or see my link
hey man how do you put the lights on top of the speakers I've been a subscriber for 8 months
+Edgar Morales fly points on the speakers. They are bolted to the m10 suspension port on the speakers
do you know where i can get the original mega par profile?
in Australia
Do you have a link for how to make these power linkable?
You can buy them. There called iec jumper cables.
hey rick can you recommend ADJ flat par QA12X? and it is that expensive ?
+green river its basically a stupid bright par lol. They are least twice as bright as my mega pars. And the price is about right for that bright pf a light
DJ Rick Web so you don't recommend it ? that means you don't. need so brightness to be ok ?
+green river depends what your application is for the lights.
i have a set of $30 pars, but their sound sensitivity is much less than the ones in the video
you can adjust the sensitivity on the ones i had it has auto1-4 just adust till you find less sensitive setting
The SlimPar 56 is brighter and I think the plastic is thicker. It's more expensive though.
Can you set 4 and use fog to get a view with fog? Thanks
Yes?
What about the Chauvet pars? What is your take on them?
Not a fan. No reason really just like adj more
You said you are giving away your t bar too. Have you got the Odyssey ones yet?
+Ben D coming in this week. Also couple other goodies you will see them in the gig logs coming out in 2 weeks
Awesome! Make sure to keep an Allen wrench handy for them. I don't use the little one it come with. I have a dedicated screw driver just for them. Also the brace that comes on it can get in the way if you don't have it in the right spot. Just a little help for ya.
DJ rick web were do you get all your music
+JOE roblox and more company purchases 95 percent of all music I use. The company has 2 or 3 subscriptions / dj pools we are all licensed too. I do buy the other 5 percent off itunes.
Do you have a DMX tutorial video?
No
dmx connectors are in parallel. It does not matter what you call in and out.
How do you control the cheap pars ??
Dmx. Or if they come with a remote
DJ Rick Web how do you connect em via dmx??
how do we sign up for the giveaway?
+Tyler Traeger go watch the vidoe link is at end of this video
Hey Rick, what would you change when you can change one thing on your earth? For example solve the poverty problem.
+RickPlays change the mind set of world leaders to work toghether to solve major issues, such as clean energy, cancer, understanding the human brain, human life span improvements. Instead of spending butt loads on military bragging competitions.

Oh okay nice :) Actually I wanted to ask the question under the 1000 subscriber Giveaway video but CZcams did not want it apparently. Is there still an opportunity to participate?
+RickPlays accepting entrys til dec 10 th.
lol everyone in the comments rocks with the $30 pars... I just found 4 on eBay for $68 including shipping.. you get what you pay for with them
The $30 par is bright because the diodes are being overdriven and that is why they don't last
Same thing with cheap LED light bulbs for the house. 👍
$30 all the way, not like I want to be bending or mistreating my light anyways lol
by the way these $30 pars (18 leds x 1 watts) in Chile cost $10 USD CLP$7.500 and we have to thank this to the free trade agreement with China. and the 36 x1 watts wich are the double power of the 18x1 , cost some 13.000 Chilean Pesos, some 18 bucks or something.
Started off as a DJ FaceTime
How about AliExpress par?
Running a risk buying there be careful
I got 4 of them for about $70 bucks btw on amazon lol
can you give link please? All I could find were $80-$90+
Yes they're more around 15 bucks. I usually wait till I find a sale they're 10-12 bucks. I've got 7 of them that way and they work great. Now Sound mode is too sensitive and does turn into just a fast strobe. I'm still working on that. If I can get just one or 2 less sensitive I can use them as Masters and slave the others
I got 4 for 40$
Bro all you have to say is you get what you pay
thank you for making this video. I have done this as a hobby for many years, yes I am from the old school. It has been 5 years since my last gig. I just recently hooked up with an up and comin band that has a great sound and they get better every week. 'Ickarus Gin'. I hope to take them to the next level with my light show for them. The new tech now blows my mind and it is like I am starting all over. I have spent over 2k in the last 5 weeks to make their show a memorable moment for new years eve. TY again. My name is Chadwick Jason Millican on FB if any one would like to collaborate about lighting. I would like to know your knowledge.
I don't know what he sees but he's clearly biast. That 30 Dollar Par is Much Much brighter than the first light it was compared to and Much brighter than the second light it's brightness was compared to. He said they were close, then later said it "comes close" to being as bright as one of the brand name lights. He i's right that on camera lights don't look the same as in person, but that's not true about brightness when comparing side by side on same take. That 30 Dollar generic par is easily identifiably brighter than both brand names. Check it out at 7 minutes and 55 seconds. Which one would you rather have it the dark! For 30- 50 dollars more those Brand name lights better have some things better about them. Most flaws he's mentioning aren't that big a deal. I'm not paying an extra 30-50 bucks for one light for bigger buttons, or cause there's a little red in the white. Now being too sensitive in sound mode is really the only draw back to me but still for the money I'll order the cheap one and find a way to dampen that sound sensitivity. What do you guys think?
It's human nature to justify our decisions. He makes a couple good points, but taking a sticker off the microphone could make a much closer comparison. With that said, thanks for taking the time to show these off Rick
They all do the same
Sorry i meant rick Its a auto correct
+JOE roblox and more make sure you enter on the giveaway video
Hey Rick, I am a DJ you should send me some of those $30 Pars
+Dj Experience enter the giveaway and I just might. Lol
Hey Rick,when r u going to announce the giveaway
And I got a question for you
I know your a Dj and i was wondering if you could make a Dj intro for me
+Dj Experience Dec 10th is the drawing. And if I had anytime maybe. But sadly I dont have time. Way to busy
That 30 dollar pars housing looks like a Mega hex par.
Dear de Ricko web:i amo a dejar but i have no bass plus no lights lila be happy if i win i subcribed 9 months
Bro I think no logic in these ... Off course they will better than each other ..bcoz of Cost ... If there r different quality n function in same price.. than there r logic to compare all in these..
I think no logic to compare all this... what u paid that u get. Very funny..comparing video. 🤣
cheap vs expensive. thats not fair bro.
Bruh they were all cheap. Expensive is 200$+ 🙉
