Varytec BAT.PAR 3 RGBW

I do lighting for small diy garage rock gigs in odd corners of London. Often there is a distinct lack of power sockets and the added danger of highly mobile band members and a jumping mosh pit. These battery powered pars have been perfect to provide light in these situations. The saturated colours are good, even at close range and although not the brightest, are more than enough for the little venues. Being able to just pick them up and move them around the stage while the band are playing is a massive plus, as is the capability to change and charge the battery while the light is on.
I have used them for all day events, plugging them in for a bit of a recharge between bands so I am not too sure what the full battery life is exactly but definitely longer than 3 hours.
They proved to be surprisingly hardy too, as often they get kicked by the band, knocked off speaker stacks or trampled by a stage invasion. One also survived a dousing with custard on stage!
They do also work well in a conventional static rig with dmx control but the big draw to these is really their mobile capability.
The only thing that has disappointed me is the remote control, it is really flaky and has only worked a couple of times for me, so I dont bother using it anymore. This is a shame.
