We're using this light in a large basement music studio where my nephew and his friends practice and hang out, and it has been such a fun upgrade to the space. This isn't being used for professional DJ work in our case; it's just about creating energy, atmosphere, and visual interest in a creative environment, and it's great for that.
Once it's running, the room instantly feels less like a basement and more like a real studio or rehearsal space. The moving beams, color washes, and subtle strobe effects add motion and depth without being distracting. It makes band practice feel more exciting and immersive, especially during louder, high-energy sessions. They've made some cool videos with it going as well.
For casual use, it was very easy to set up with little technical knowledge required.
Brightness is excellent and easily fills a large room. The beams stay crisp and visible even without fog, but adding a little haze makes it look especially impressive and concert-esque. It's also surprisingly quiet while running, which is important when people are playing instruments and recording.
What I appreciate most is that this single fixture creates variety. Instead of just washing the room in one color, it adds movement, layered effects, and personality. It makes the space feel like somewhere you want to spend time being creative.
For anyone setting up a home music studio, rehearsal space, basement hangout, or creative room, this is a fantastic value. It adds mood and excitement without needing multiple lights or complicated controls, and it’s been a big hit with everyone who uses the space. It's functional and high quality for what we wanted it for.

This thing is amazing. It’s packed with features and presets so you don’t need to have a DMX controller to use it. There are loads of lighting and color presets on the remote control. It’s substantially sized and quite heavy, so if you’re going to fly this on a stand you need to be ready for that. We brought this to our friends NYE party and it was a huge hit.
Versatile Party Light, Great for Beginners and Casual Use

I've been playing around with the Flashback Events 6-Arm 150W RGBW Bee-Eye Spider Moving Head DJ Light, and after seeing it in action (and comparing notes with some other users), I have a pretty clear picture of what this thing can and can't do. I have a lot of preofessional lighting gear, and while I don't copnsider this a professional device, it is suitable for a mobile DJ and more than enough for a house party. In fact, I would go so far as to say that this light qualifies as a "party in a box."
The combination of the 6 rotating RGBW heads, the central bee-eye, and the added "halo light ring" (which sets it apart from similar models) creates a dynamic, multi-layered light show. The colors are vibrant, and the dramatic movement of the beams of light really fills a room. The sound-activated mode is responsive and fun, and is likely the most useful mode for this light. While the lights are bright, to achieve the effect shown in the photos and videos in the listing, you will need to put some fog or haze in the air (without it, you won't see the light beams).
This lighting instrmument is very beginner-friendly. You don't need to any knowledge about theatrical ligting to get great show out of it. It comes with an RF remote (better than IR since you don't need line-of-sight) that works well within about 50 feet. You can easily cycle through presets, auto modes, and sound-active modes right out of the box. If you do have experience with theatrical lighting, it does support DMX512, which is great for integrating it into a larger setup or customizing the show. However, there are some quirks. The DMX control seems a bit limited—specifically, you can't adjust the speed of the "auto" or "macro" functions via DMX channels; you have to use the remote or the front panel for that. For that reason, you would need to use a DMX board and the remote to have full control over this fixture (so don't lose that remote).
A huge plus mentioned by others is the ability to select modes that exclude the lasers or strobes. This is crucial if you have guests who are sensitive to strobes or lasers, and it's a thoughtful feature that not all inexpensive party lights have.
The build quality is decent for the price. It's compact and has good cooling (two fans, plenty of vents), so it doesn't overheat. The internals are tidy, and connectors are secured well. It comes with a mounting clamp that's surprisingly robust. That being said, this light it’s largely plastic—and not the heavy-duty power-tool kind. It feels a bit fragile for touring, and if you are going to use this in a mobile DJ setup, you'll want to put it in a padded case.
Also, regarding the lasers: while they are a fun addition ("starlights"), don't expect stadium-level brightness. The red is okay for a living room, but the green can be faint, especially in larger or brighter venues.
The manual is. bare bones, which is not surprising for this kind of light. It covers the basics and safety, but don't expect a deep dive into programming. The DMX chart is accurate enough, but the front panel instructions are lacking. You might have to explore a bit (like finding the hidden menu for head calibration) to figure everything out.
Overall, this is a fantastic value for the price, making the price to quality ratio for this light excellent.

I picked this moving beam light up because I wanted something that could do more than just wash the room with color. Once it’s running, it throws out a lot of motion and variety. You get bright beams, a fun starry kind of look, plus strobe effects that can switch between white and a warmer amber tone. It’s the kind of light that makes a space feel like an actual event instead of just a room with a speaker.
Functionality is where it really earns its spot. You can keep it simple with auto-run or sound mode and it still looks busy and intentional. When you want more control, the DMX option gives you a lot to work with, like pan, tilt, dimming, speed, and color changes, so it can fit into a more polished setup. It also links up well if you ever add a second unit, which is nice for bigger spaces.
Brightness is strong and the beams stay crisp, especially in a larger room. It’s also one of those lights that looks noticeably better with haze or fog. Without it, you still get the colors and movement on surfaces, but with a little haze you actually see the beams in the air and it looks much more “pro.”
On value, it feels like a good deal if you want one fixture that can cover a lot of different looks without buying multiple lights. It’s not just one effect, so you get more mileage out of it for the price. If you’re only lighting a small room and just need a simple color wash, it might be more than you need, but if you want movement, variety, and the option to grow into DMX later, it’s money well spent.

The Flashback Events Stores 6 Arm DJ Light delivers a big visual impact with surprisingly easy setup. Right out of the box, it is straightforward to get running whether you are using auto mode, sound activation, or full DMX control. All you need to do is plug it in, choose your mode, and it immediately starts delivering movement, color, and energy without a steep learning curve. For DJs or event setups that need speed and flexibility, this ease of use is a huge win.
The light quality is excellent for the price point. The beams are bright and crisp, with enough output to fill a medium sized room, especially when paired with a fog or haze machine. The RGBW colors are clean and vibrant, and the bi effect adds depth and motion that keeps the visuals from feeling flat. The strobe and wash effects are strong without being overwhelming.
Build quality is solid and well made. The housing feels sturdy, and the cooling system is quiet enough that it does not distract during use. Functionally, this fixture covers a lot of ground in a single unit, which adds serious value for the money. For parties, weddings, or special events, this is a powerful and versatile lighting fixture that is well worth the price.

I set this up indoors for a family party and tested it alongside a fog machine to see how it performed in a more dynamic lighting environment.
The moving heads respond well to sound activation, and the beams are bright enough to cut through light fog, creating a layered effect that felt like a mini dance floor. Our young son immediately started dancing in front of it, which says a lot about how engaging the movement and colors are. The unit feels solid, and the included mounting bracket made setup straightforward.
Compared to static party lights, the motion and spread of this one made the room feel much more active without needing constant adjustment.
The trade-off is that it’s more effective in dimmer spaces, so it won’t have the same impact in a brightly lit room with out some haze. I gave it 5 stars because it delivered reliable performance, good build quality, and strong visual impact for parties. the remote control was basic but easy to use color optionbs worked well

The Flashback Events 6 arm light is a very fun and impressive DJ light! I'm not very well versed with DMX, so I rely on mostly sound activated lights. When doing small group settings outdoors I cannot increase the volume too loud. With these types of settings, volume is not going to be that high and I find the sound activation on this light requires a very high volume or placing this light directly by a speaker. Even with the sensitivity settings set at the highest, when the volume is not that high, the lights turn off and the whole machine goes to sleep. The auto functions are nice, but not as good as the sound activation method as they just rotate through all the colors. Overall though, it's a pretty cool light, very quiet, and very bright. I still consider it a really good value as long as the volume is high enough! I'm sure if someone was more familiar with DMX, you could probably have much better controls over this light.

This is a really nice light. It's a large light unit and has a lot of functions. It comes with a small remote control. This is a 110v unit. The unit is well constructed and has many moving and rotating parts. The main head rotates and on the main head there are 6 smaller lights that also rotate. In the middle of the main head, there is yet another rotating set of lights. There is a lot of movement and variations of light. The unit response nicely to music as well. This is a programmable DMX light with a DMX in and out. I highly recommend getting two of these or more to really make your party or band pop! Very much worth the money!!!

While this light fixture is similar to other recently advertised 6-head rotating bee-eye units, this is one of the first one that I have seen that also incorporates a "halo light ring" AND have a useful Remote Control (via RF, not IR so it is non-directional). It is useful within 50-feet and not much beyond that.
Definitely a "party" device with decent RGBW LED light output, and also having a combo of red & green lasers, white and amber strobe, 6-rotating RGBW heads, and a central rotating 4-bee-eye RGBW head. Also, unlike other units, this one has full control control options, either via, manual control, remote control, and via DMX for modes that if selected, do not incorporate the lasers, or the strobe (for events where some of the guests may be neurologically sensitive to strobes). This issue has stopped me from using my other similar models that I keep on the shelf, and boxed-up (i.e. unused!).
The User Manual (included in my pix) is not very well done, but is accurate for 2 of the control modes (hand-held remote control, and via DMX control). The documentation for the front panel control is very lacking in detail. IN ADDITION, if you closely examine the documentation you will see that the DMX control has no option to control overall speed of any of the "auto" or "macro" functions! I checked all possible DMX channels and none will control the speed. Only the front control panel, or the hand held remote control can affect an "auto" run speed. The manual front panel control does have ability to select "auto" modes of A1, A2, and A3, as well as 2 different sound modes. The "A" series is for limiting the lasers, or strobes! Yes - intelligent design! The difference between the sound modes is a common feature that either changes the sequence of operation with the beat of music (but some LEDs are always on), or alternatively emits no light when there is no music, and also changes the sequence with the music.
FYI, there is a hidden menu option when it displays "Show" that if held down long enough enables controlling/adjusting the base rotation angle of the rotating heads (in case one of them gets out of whack).
Teardown: VERY compact internals, but properly assembled with anti-vibration materials on all connectors. From the attached pix, you can see there are two fans in the bottom, and ample vent holes on the top - resulting in virtually no temperature rise during operation! Plenty of heat dissipation fins on the bottom.
Usage : Best if mounted or suspended from the ceiling and the walls and floor not too dark color. Fog, or better yet, haze would bring it up to a whole other level! However, on its own - still is a very nice fixture - even if placed on the floor, or better yet, a tall table. Included is a free light fixture clamp that is far, far more robust that is needed by this light-weight fixture! Also included is a short DMX cable that is nice for testing with a DMX controller, but not a very useful operating length. IMHO
In summary: GREAT party light fixture with lots of control options (but DMX control is somewhat limiting) - so do not lose the remote control.......
