Stairville MH-100 Beam 36x3W LED

I bought eight of these to replace an ageing set of much more expensive lights and, over all, find them very good. These are not an expensive item when compared to other brands offering lamps of similar spec so, to be perfectly honest, my expectations were not all that high. On first receiving them, one of the eight units did not function correctly and was returned to Thomann for repair. The faulty light was back with me within two weeks and has worked perfectly since. There were another few niggles regarding the quality of assembly, cross threaded and ill-fitting outer casing screws etc. which I was easily able to sort myself. So once these few minor problems were resolved I found myself quite unexpectedly with a really capable and impressive set of moving head wash/spot lights.
I say wash/spot lights because you could not say that it was definitely a spot light or a wash light. There is a very discernible lightsaber-like beam which cuts its way through the haze and slashes around in the way a spot light beam would, but there is also a wash from them that lights the room. I imagine some people might consider this characteristic to be a negative, think they are neither one thing or another, but I think it is fantastic, the best of both worlds. And they are bright! And fast! And the colours are vivid! In fact, despite having had these lamps for several months now and having spent many hours with them programming, I am still amazed at how effective they are when I see them in operation. And they are small too weighing less than 5kg, it really is surprising just how well they perform.
Time will tell what effect the rigors of the road will have on them and how well they will stand up to use but it is a good start. My opinion is that these are a lot of light for a small amount of money.

I had a couple of old moving heads and needed to replace them with something smaller, lighter & more energy efficient. I looked long and hard at what was on the marketplace and decided to get 8 of these. They have far exceeded my expectations! the build quality is fantastic, some people have criticised them as 'plasticey' but i think that they have a nice feel to them. whilst looking, i noticed a different brand that looked identical apart from the lack of a safety eye, but the price was double that of the MH-100. Ive used them about 10 times now, without any problems. I'm not expecting them to last 10 years, but I think that they will far exceed the 3 year warranty period by what I have seen so far. Other Lampies & Techies don't believe me when i tell them how much I paid for them

I bought these beams recently and have been very very impressed by them. The casing they are made with are solid and feel sturdy, although marks can show easily on the case they can be easily wiped off with a damp cloth. The fixture is incredibly easy to set up once unboxed. The menu options are extremely easy to navigate through to find all features needed. Although easy to use the light can be used to an extremely high professional standard being used in big clubs and large venues as well as small scale events.
These lights are extremely easy to put into any rig with lock in brackets it makes attaching and detaching the clamps extremely easy.
The fixtures have been used in rigs with other lighting brands such as Martin, Chauvet, Robe and the it was hard to tell the difference between the lights, the others were better but by a very small amount.
For the price tag these lights are easily a great competitor if you can't quite afford the other brands.
I am so pleased with these fixtures i am going to be placing another order for a vast amount of these shortly!
