Are Both Lighting IR4 uplights worth it? My 6-month experience
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 сер 2024
- Many of you know that I am a big fan of Both Lighting lights. All of my uplights are from Both, as are my movers. I recently gave all 160 of my S4 uplights to my veteran DJs on staff and bought several sets of the newer, smaller IR4 uplights. Here is my honest review of them after using them for six months.

Just got mine shipped to the uk they feel really good quality there on charge right now ready for the weekend
They worked perfect the one time I used them and just in Basic mode !
Good Morning Joe. Yep, I have been using these with another company for about a year now(?). I finally went and bought some after learning the capabilities first hand. Yeah, these are good for what I do. Thanks for all you do. Slainte.
Great to hear!
These lights are the best for the size, price and performance combination! I love them!
Me too!
I’m with you, sold my chauvets and went with these last year. About to order 8-16 more
Great review and update on these lights.
Thanks 👍
I’ve just bought my second case of these love them and considering selling my s6’s
just the review I needed. Thank you, purchasing now
White or Black is the only question. I have 16 Black S4’s. I tend to go with the black ones.
Do you know if these lights work nicely with the ADJ Wolfmix controller?
Hey, great videos! I was wondering if you could do a quick video with like 3-8 IR4s set up in the 4 sound modes with some music playing so i can see what they look like?
I'll add to the list.
@@DJJoeBunn do you recommend the sound modes for a live band? I’m just getting into lighting and thought an 8-pack would be cool. I saw a video of the Apelabs sound mode and it is a lot cooler than most sound modes that just hot with the beat all the time
It's fine. Nothing amazing. I prefer some sort of control over my lights these days hence why I'm all in on Soundswitch now. But that won't work for bands. Google that Maestro DMX thing.
@@DJJoeBunn ooh, that looks great, thanks!!!
i think the reason that the ir4 don't lose the signal is because it has wireless transcievers inside that are repeating the dmx signal.... pretty similar like beamz uplighs which i own (that's the european version of jmaz)
You sure about this? I don’t think they do. Only ape labs do that as far as I know.
The S4’s have a much narrower beam than the IR4. It’s simple optic physics. You can’t focus a beam of light with such a flat design, the lenses are too wide and they look more like washes than strainght uploghts.
If you can’t see the difference when you put them next to S4’s you either need a pair of glasses or you’ve never actually tried. I have 16 of each (IR-4’s and S4’s) and I use the it-4’s at the back of the room and the S4’s around the dancefloor because the S4’s look much sharper.
Basically the IR4’s are affordable wash lights. Other than that you can’t beat the price.
I get signal of mine. I just ordered 32 of these and some will change, some will not. Maybe I need to change to a different wifi channel??
Not sure. I have had ever better results with these than I did with my S4
What’s the most amount of hours you’ve gotten out of the IR4??
Mine usually run close to 6 and still have charge in them.
How do you compare them with the chauvet quad 4? I’m thinking of selling mines first the space and weight convenience..,
Nobody talks about the hard PWM flickering while dimming, fading and color changing… very bad.
In my opinion you can use them in professional environment.
Nobody talks about it because nobody notices it. I've been using these since day one.
whats the dimensions on the box?
How would you compare these to the Rockville Rockwedges? Also, how long does it take for these IR4's to fully charge?
Never used Rockville ones. And can't say I know charge time. See if you can find Rick Web's video on them. I am sure he says it.
I've only had my Rockwedges for a few months, and bought the Both wedges and IR4 Minis which came yesterday.. but I'll say this -- the IR4 Minis can "master/slave" with the Rockwedges and Both wedges.
IR4 Mini has to be master though, but everything else can be slave and they work perfectly together.
Before anyone buys these, the color mixing is not all that great. Best to Dmx these and color mix specific colors instead
How is the "warm white"? That's what separates so many of these lights. Everyone wants warm white and a lot of uplights have bad color separation.
I bought the bigger ones. They are crap. I bought 10 of them with that case. They don’t even last 3 hours on full charge. Many of them don’t even charge up to 100%. No wander both lighting sell them cheap.
I have 125 of those too, and if there were any issues, it was after years of abuse. I think you got a bad batch. Have you reached out to Rick at Both?
I bought them straight from the lady in china.
The only problem I have with them is that they do last. After about two hours they turn off and many of them don’t charge 100%. It’s very frustrating
@@revelationevents2323 Email me about this, joe@bunndjcompany.com with your name and when you bought them.
@@DJJoeBunn hey Joe I emailed you as you said but forgot to add my name. It’s Alex De Francisco
