15W White LED Pin Spot Light, Manual Focus, 4 Adjustable Apertures, for Stage DJ Disco Mirror Ball

I rarely leave reviews, but this one merits it. I produce comedy shows and needed an affordable, reliable spotlight that would do the job—this has not let me down. I’ve been using it for the last 2.5 months and it’s consistently impressed. This IS a pinpoint spotlight, but for reference, I have it placed high in the back of the room about 35 feet from the stage. The largest aperture setting gives about a 7’ circumference lighting on center stage. I’ve also had it up to 75 ft from center stage where it still had about a 6’ circumference. I’ve had the light on for up to 3-4 hours, it does heat up a bit, but it’s still held up fantastically and it’s nothing a small fan wouldn’t solve. The removable bottom plate is super convenient as well, I normally use it to mount the spotlight onto a 8’ tripod. Overall, no complaints. For the price, you can’t beat this light

this product is great if you are looking for a lightweight and bright light at a great price. this is not a $500 spotlight, but better than american djs 3 or 9 watt light. the best feature is the ability to change the amount of light being thrown at the object. this helps with changing the distance from the light fixture to the object being lit.

I was recently given a new dartboard and needed a good way to illuminate the board as the lights in my garage are not that bright. As a result, I went searching for various solutions to accomplish that goal. For my previous dartboard, I used a light mounted just above the board that pointed down on the board. It worked, but not tremendously well. So, I looked at ways of making a better cabinet to use the old light and mount it farther out from the wall to get a better angle to shine on the board. That option proved to not really make sense to me over time. I also looked at lights meant for illuminating big pictures and paintings. However, those seemed to just be more of the same as the other light I already had. Then I discovered this spotlight. However, just one problem . . . I had thought about a spotlight before but shied away from it because of the power constraints and the ability to turn it off and on easily. Either the spotlights needed to be hardwired, needed batteries, or did not come with a remote. Then it occurred to me that I might be able to find something to plug a spotlight into - an upgraded outlet or something - and have a remote for turning it off and on that way. NOTE: Since the spotlight was going to be mounted to the ceiling and use an outlet in the ceiling (what the garage door opener is plugged into, also), I had no way of being able to turn the light on or off when I needed it/didn't need it, unless I climbed up a ladder each time I wanted to use it to plug it in/unplug it. Then I found something at a local Orange & Black hardware store (you know the one) that changed everything. It plugs into an outlet and then you plug a device into it and then the problem is solved. The plug comes with a remote that allows you to turn power on or off and no need for climbing a ladder. Once that problem was solved, I could purchase this spotlight . . . and I did, very happily. As for the light itself, it was very easy to mount to the ceiling. But before I mounted it, I plugged it in and then played with the four-hole disk that makes the spotlight bigger or smaller. I found the size that was just about perfect and then found the right spot on the ceiling and made a mark there for mounting. Then I just used the included hardware for mounting (4 screws and 4 wall anchors) and then put it up on the ceiling. Once in place, I plugged it into the plug I had purchased and then plugged that plug into the outlet. Then I turned it on with the remote and it has worked flawlessly ever since. My dartboard is now illuminated very nicely, and my wife was even impressed at how professional the dartboard looks with the spotlight on it. Regarding the two pictures of the dartboard - One is with all the lights on in the garage, including the spotlight. The other picture is with all the lights off EXCEPT the spotlight and the garage door closed. I was very impressed with how bright this spotlight was and very happy with it. The distance from where the spotlight is mounted to the dartboard is about 12 feet, by the way, for frame of reference. What I like about this Spotlight: 1. Price 2. Brightness 3. Ease of mounting to the ceiling What I didn’t like about this Spotlight: 1. Price (it went down $8 since I bought it) 2. No Remote to turn it off/on Overall, I give this spotlight 4.5/5 stars. I deducted .5 star for the lack of a remote for turning it off and on because it would seem that most people, like myself, are going to mount this to the ceiling and may not have a good way to turn it off/on once it is plugged in without a remote. I do really like how bright this light is and how easy it was to adjust the light to make it the perfect size.

I do professional lighting for bands. I bought this because I thought it would be nice to have a lightweight small follow spot. Unfortunately it is only as bright as an average flashlight and had no effect when trying to light up a singer from about 20 feet. It would not cut through even when there was very little front lighting to make any difference.

We use this to center on the hitting mat for our golf simulator and it is absolutely perfect, bright and focused.

They work great!

Update number one: I pulled out the COB LED and it had a bunch of brown stuff on it. I initially thought that was just the LED burning, now I suspect that the brown stuff is what is burning. Perhaps the manufacturer caused the brown stuff to be on the LED, and the LED is burning the brown stuff which is causing the smoke. Only a guess. Now the LED won't stay on, it flickers on and off. I suspect that is because of heating issues. I think it needs to be touching the heat sink in order to function. I think it is overheating which is causing the flicker. I put it back together and it is flickering at a different pace than when it was taken apart. So I suspect that is because I removed much of the thermal paste when I disassembled it. Now I will purchase some thermal paste to see if it will stay on. If it does, then I can assess whether my removal of the brown stuff will remedy the smoke issue. Initial review: I bought two of these lights, one recently and one a few months ago. They both look the same from the outside, however my recent purchase smokes. I tore it apart and realized that it has different components than the initial purchase. Specifically, the LED resisters are completely different. In order to isolate the problem, I started swapping parts and the resisters were not the issue. Everything pointed to the LED. The LED smokes regardless of which resister employed. As such, I don't know what I am going to do yet. I may just attempt to rebuild it using the original housing. Not that dumb plastic mount. That thing is trash. In any event, I think I purchased this latest one as an open-box. I am not sure what will happen if I leave it plugged in. Typically smoke leads to fire. Although my fire alarm is good, I don't want to risk it. Basically, the light is incomplete and dangerous but there are some redeeming qualities. Let's trash this design and start from scratch.
