New Years Party set-up
So this year my wife and I are having a New Years party and want it to be just like a club.
We started off with all American DJ products because they are reviewed as cost effective and legit club lighting/accessories. The LED Quest is self driven and there is a mic pick-up in the back so it works to the tune of the music, and if you get more than one you can link them together and have one a master and the others slaves so they all coincide together. I highly recommend this brands lighting accessories.
LED Quest flower light - $169
Fogger Array (greatly enhances the light system) - $60
Panel UV blacklight - $150
Here is a clip of the LED Quest working to Music with a little fog in the air so you can see all the light beams! They are awesome together, now I know why clubs always toss a little fog in the air or the lights.... looks 10x better

RE: New Years Party set-up
Good luck with your event! I've been a mobile/club DJ for the last 12 years. Mostly weddings, but Ihave a regular club gig each week as the resident DJ. Watch that "fog" machine. Iknow which one you are talking about as I have 4 of them. Be careful how much fog you use as they WILL set off smoke alarms! Most of the parties I do will not allow a fogger for that reaon. Ihave a hazer machine that does the same thing as a fogger. Only difference is there is NO wait time for heat up, it has NO odor and will not set off the alarms since it's a water or oil based mist that is created by them. American DJ makes some good stuff. Matter of fact, in my DJ tower I use their professional equipment line of products....dual CD players, 4 channel mixer....all the goodies, they're branded as American Audio. I'll post a few picts later. I'll also try to set up a "party" in the garage showing how the hazer in action with a few lasers and some more LED club lighting that Ihave.
Have fun with your party!
Have fun with your party!

RE: New Years Party set-up
Thanks, yea very small bust will fill the room!
I figured it would set off alarms so I will just pull them while the party is taking place and pop them back on, I saw the hazers but if I remember its a bit $$$ !
Do you know how the blacklights are?
if I wanted a good one, is their UV panel too much for a home application or the UV cannon?
Not sure if the UV is better or the same as the standard black lights

The UV panel is nice. I use them myself. The hazer I have is built by Chauvet and costs about $400'ish. Worth it considering how much it may cost the establishment and ultimately ME if I ever set one of their alarms off and the fire department arrived! You just need enough to have the light beams be seen.

Yeah the american DJ Hazer was about the same, just over $400 so I figured the $60 array was good for just personal house use, we disconnected the alarms and it works great with just a little in the air like you said!
Here are a few vids without the fog in the air, these are with a camera instead of a dumb cell phone!
Enjoy, I swear my wife and I are going to be party people all by ourselves every night now, feels like a club

Looks great in the corner of that room. Very similar to the Vertigo LED that I use in a pair form when doing weddings. If you're interested in a second, one of my favorite "budget" lights is the "Aggressor" also made by American DJ. Fills a very wide area and has a great strobe feature as well.

Yup it works awesome in the corner & in the adjacent corner I will install the 2nd... just haven't had the time.
Then I can link the LED Quest Master/slave set-up and they will work together which will be awesome!
