CHAUVET DJ Scorpion Dual Fat Beam Aerial Effect Laser

After getting one of these as a gift, I immediately went back to the store and bought another one. I had been looking at them forever (the guys at Guitar Center in Mayfield are awesome, they let me fog the place up and sample the laser). Very awesome, bright laser for the money. They are also fairly light, I daisy chain them together through the dmx out/in ports and have them on opposite sides of my lighting truss. Absolutely awesome, people love it. However, PAIR THEM WITH A FOG MACHINE!!! Without fog its not nearly as cool as watching the extraordinarily bright and thick beams cutting through the fog. Props to Chauvet for these lasers!

I always like lasers, even though you're typically limited on which venues allow fog/haze to properly see the beams. This Scorpion Dual is awesome. I have a pair of them and they really put on a fantastic show. The available DMX control really gives you a TON of options if you choose to run them that way. Great stand alone/sound active programs right out of the box also!! Comes with a remote. Mount them high, get the beams mostly over your audiences heads for a truly stunning effect. Only green, but looks great and really creates a fun atmosphere. Fog is MUST for this 'fat beam' monster.

Got my first one and right out of the box there was a mirror rattling around inside. Got my second one, had a mirror rattling around inside and it was D.O.A. Got my third one and had a mirror rattling around inside, the mirrors were misaligned and was projecting dim lasers to the front, bottom and to the sides very dimly.
These units are also so noisy to the point that the lasers never stop moving when using sound activation.

Very disappointed that once again I buy a used or restock item from Guitar Center and it does not work. Despite looking brand new.....the laser is dead and wont even power on. More wasted time going back to the store.......

I absolutely love these lasers already! I've done tons of research on these and went out and bout me two to add to my show. I haven't used them yet outside of my home but wow! The liquid sky effect can be seen with almost all the patterns! FOG IS A MUST!! I've done EDM warehouse events with cheap lasers and I can't wait to try them out in a fogged out warehouse! My only negative review of them fresh out the box is the IR remote. I literally have to get within 1-2 feet away from the unit to even power them on! I was pretty dissapointed about that but I do plan on eventually getting a DMX controller for them so it's all good.. but I definitely recommend if you can use a butt load of fog!

I was able to purchase this as a manufacture rebuilt item. Something I don't normally do but since it was an add-on to my display, I decided to give a rebuid a try. So far not too bad. I is a bit noisy as something - maybe the mirrors move but that could be normal. Of course, once the sound is up, no one will hear. Havn't had a chance to see the effect realtime since I didn't have a chance to set up in a large venue or haze the room yet.
