[5 V] This is an inexpensive, single-universe converter. It's basic and does what it claims to do just fine. This is the box you need for simple USB to DMX conversion. It's small and lightweight and could easily be thrown in a gig bag if you're on the road. This unit has a 5-pin DMX connector.

[5 V] Bought it to use with my adj UB 9h's. These are brighter. They are made from metal. They are quiet cause no fan. For the price, you can't go wrong with these!!

[5 V] Despite the confusion in the Q&A above, this does have a fan on the bottom, see picture. It's *much* quieter than either of the two ADJ Dekker models which are the closest comparison I'm aware of. RGBW light quality is identical to those, although with a different dimming curve and strobe timing. The CMYO beams are projected opposing RGBW not mixed with them, which is a neat effect (see other picture of blue and orange channels from a single fixture). Be warned that if you're using SoundSwitch for DMX control, controlling CMYO requires attribute cues not simple color/intensity automation.

There are a couple issues with the manual, if I could take off half a star for them I would. The cyan and magenta channels are swapped, and the description of the movement channel could be better. The manual says 001-255, motor speed slow to fast. More accurate would be 0-127 indexed positions, 128-255 fast to slow then slow to fast direction and rotation.

The constant rotation gives you a much wider range of movement options vs the ADJ Dekkers, although there's no automated back and forth thus more programming required if you want a basic derby effect (requires attribute cues in SoundSwitch which is kind of a pain).

[16.4' / 5 m] I bought two of these. They have a lot of nice features and are easily set up. I got one hung and it worked perfectly, although for our stage it was a pretty wide wash. We may put barn doors on it. We have about a 24’ throw from that position.

For the other light, we accidentally put it through an abuse test. It got dropped from a 12’ height onto a concrete floor. The lens broke into several pieces and a two inch chunk of the metal case broke off. Amazingly enough, we put in the second lens and it worked fine. No LED or circuitry failure. Very tough little light. We are going to use it until it chooses to fail.

[16.4' / 5 m] As a DJ, I have purchased lot's of different lighting over the past 15 years and I gotta tell ya, this one hit home. I put it on a rack with some LED par cans and it seemed to know what to do and when to do it. red/green Lasers, turning red globe FX, awesome! Buy this light, you will not regret it!

[16.4' / 5 m] Red...Green...Blue...White...Cyan...Magenta...Amber...Orange...you pick and choose.


Fire up DMX and not only do you have a nice color palette, but unlike nearly every derby effect light out there you can actually dim the intensity of each color! Really works well when combined with static lighting to get just enough movement blended into your look.


Loving it so far!

[5 V] If you are a musician and you are tired of playing on dark stages where the women can't even see you, then I would suggest buying some of these mini-pars. They are individually dimmable (you do not need a lightboard controller) they give you a wide variety of colors and you won't have to take out a bank loan to own them. Programming is a snap. Just plug 'em in, and you are lit up ready to go. And the women will be throwing themselves at you !!

[16.4' / 5 m] This is very good for the price. It's actually a bit bright so I have it turned all the way down. It would be nice to be able to dim it further, but its a steal at the price regardless

[5 V] I tried the cheap ones and had too many Windows driver issues. This unit is plug and play and is still actively supported by the manufacturer. I use it with open source FreeStyler DMX Light Controller software.
If you have a 3 pin DMX system, be sure to get the Kopul DMX53PA-S 5-Pin Male to 3-Pin Female DMX Adapter Cable (6) too.

[5 V] Our church has been using off brand low quality led lights for our backline stage lighting the last 7 years. We were using traditional halogen based par 56's and 64's for our FOH facial lighting. We are not a very technical church and we don't do follow spots, color, or scene changes during our services. At the beginning of the year we set out to remove all of our off brand lights and traditional fixtures and replace them with a lower quantity, higher quality fixtures. When it came time to purchase the FOH replacements, the Blizzard Lb-Par RGBW met all the requirements we were looking for. We staggered 2 on each side of our sanctuary over the congregation roughly 20-30' away from the stage and they give just the right wash for our FOH facial lighting. The lights are so much brighter than what we were using that it made our naturally bright sanctuary feel slightly darker. I would highly recommend these lights for anyone needing basic stage washing of light. I know they would look great coming from the backline as well with a color wash.
