A great, versatile light for only $50
This was so good I bought a bunch more for a theater.Let's be straight, a fully professional LED light? No. A great multi-purpose light to get you up and going? Absolutely. The Coidak gives a lot of function for not much cash. The colors are very saturated, and the beam in the small blackbox theater is not super wide, but in a medium-size it's working really really great. All of the program functions are easy enough to navigate through but you really want to use it via DMX. One of the only downsides to this light is that you're stuck with 8 CHNL DMX mode, you can't make it 3, or 5, but really you can just program around the chnls you don't need.It's very very light, and it runs very quiet, the chnl display on the back runs dark so as to not be distracting, it's very easy to install and get going. The power cord is not very long and the bracket holes are pretty small so a normal stage light clamp will not fit through but these are only small details. The best feature is that it gives you a lot to play with for a very small price. I've run these in for improv, stand-up, sketch, they work great for burlesque because they're so saturated. The 'pop' on really quick but that means they snap off really fast if you need quick blackouts or light changes. Highly recommended-Review is my own opinion, no solicitation for this review took place-

Besides the power cable issue the unit however is very bright and does a good job. I just feel like it's a waste ...
Power cord got damaged so quickly. The ends that connect to the back of the unit ripped and the 3 wires were exposed. It is a fire and shock hazard. Beware.Besides the power cable issue the unit however is very bright and does a good job.I just feel like it's a waste of money because it didn't last at all.

Great light for the money, poor construction.
This is the 6th LED Par I've purchased in my quest to find the proper lights for my application. This 54x1W light was about the same as the other cheap LEDs I've purchased. It gives off great light for the price...But the metal brackets were so thin and flexible that after testing, I immediately packaged it back up and scheduled a return. I've seen cardboard that had less flexibility than these brackets. I'll pay $6 more and get a better bracket. These are probably fine if you need uplights, but if you need uplights, you need more than one, and there a other suppliers of this exact light that sell bundles at a lower per unit price.

These work good for our simple lighting needs.(Update 7-28-2018)
We have these setup on our church stage. So far haven't used it in a live setting (we just put them up, but I am able to control them and setup scenes using our dmx controller. setup was easy and haven't had any issues with these yet but again We just put them up. I will update in a month or two on their performance once we have regular use of these, but I think they output good lighting, it's bright. the only minor complaint is when it fades it seems a bit choppy. but for our simple needs this will work.UPDATE 7-28-2018So not even a year after buying these one has died on us. It will no longer power on. We use these lights once a week on sundays for worship. The others are still working just fine a little disappointing because it didn't even last a year. I hope the others continue to work well I will keep updating every 6 months or so. Deducting 1 star

Brilliant to dreamy quiet to boot.
Love these lights. I was going to order some different lights but they were going to take over a month to arrive.We put on a production of Esther. These worked great. They are not super bright, but they work great for lighting a stage for a play. For the price of most lights you could buy three or even six. So it is a moot point.The colors are grand. Hard and brilliant to soft and dreamy. I purchased an inexpensive light before and was worried about the loudness of the fan.The fans were so quiet. All four fixtures together we quieter than my one old fixture. I have had very limited experience with DMX. They programmed easy. It is odd that there is no standard for the lights. My other fixture has a difference sequence of sliders on the controller to turn them on and off. This is not a problem if you are using a program. It is however if you want to run them manually. On my controller these lights use 4 5 6 7 and 8.
