Comments about American DJ DJ SPOT 250 250W Halogen Intelligent Moving Head:
I bought 2 of these for Live Theater Productions, I currently use 2 Mole Richardson 407 spots and wanted to eliminate the 2 lighting operators from having to operate very hot lights (407s) for the 1 1/2 hour shows we do.The DJ Spot 250 looked on paper to fit the bill.1- The Price is Great2- Easy to set up3- Light Weight (20# each)4- Super Light Show(s)5- Low cost lamp ($10 each)6- Plus many cool features for the PriceThe Deal Breaker for me is the "Operating Noise" They Are LOUD. By Loud I mean I can hear them 75-100 feet away in a quiet Auditorium. Within 10 feet of the fixture you can't hold a conversation, Or more importantly you can't Record Sound (other than Fixture noise with Dialog) if you are in the same Room with the fixtures on.I shoot Video (3 cameras) and record audio from all 3 cameras and 16 mic channels during the Shows for DVD Production later.If you are trying to record sound with these in the room you will NOT be successful, an alternative might be ADJ 250 VIZI Spot LED. P.S. This noise can't be removed in Post without removing most Dialog and Music.The lights would be very cool at a Frat Party or in a Club/Bar type setting or anywhere you are not recording Sound. Good Luck, If Sound might be an issue, Try to "Listen" to the Fixture prior to buying, As most Mfgs. do not list the Noise level of there products.John

I have been nothing but disappointed with these lights. They were used twice for a total of less than 10 hours and both are now broken. My company uses many brands, makes, and models of intel fixtures and these are by far the most unreliable. After 1 use, the 1st one makes a LOUD clicking noise in the motor. I took it back and luckily they gave me another one. So far that new one works...The 2nd in the pair just STOPPED working. The bulb will not light up and our repair has no idea what the issue is. Guitar Center won't take it back ...who knows why. We have put it in a box and sent it back to ADJ. Who knows when it will come back.

I own 2 of these moving lights, and they are easy to navigate and use. I wish they had more features such as dimming capabilities and 3 faced prism. But for the small price they are deffinatly worth it! For DJ light shows these fit very well!
