Affordable way to spice up a small space
We got two of these to have a bit of variation from the basic ceiling lights of our rehearsal room. For a 25 square meter space, they're okay, but might get a couple more.
The lights are very light and the plastic housing is not going to be road-worthy. Colour mix is fine, you can get decent basic colors and a nice white light out of this. Enough connections and options that you can start setting up a basic lighting rig, but durability and reliability are a big question mark.
The sound mode is so-so. I tried with just playing drums and the lights pretty much flash at their maximum rate, which is roughly a couple of times per second. Might work with music that has a steady bass beat, like electronic music such as techno etc., but the volume level needs to be correct. Too quiet and no reaction, too loud and it might just start flashing constantly.
The auto mode seems random and without connecting the lights via DMX you're not going to get multiple lights synchronized. With a controller you might find more use, but on their own, they're mostly a static mood-creator.

We can start the party!
So no experience with any kind of lights before so I wanted first the 6 led one but decided to go for this with the 12 because more is more.
So I do not use any of the connectors or programs just set it up to Sound Mode so it catches the music played and the fun begins!
We do small parties with our friends with all the invitees able to go round and play any song they want so having some cool lights when we party is an amazing added value.
The sensitivity is set up to the max and do not be afraid if will not work instantly as you need to realize the distance from the speaker and the music volume makes all happen.
If too quiet the light will not react...the same if it is too far away from the music so I have it on top of my stereo system and with the proper volume we have so much fun with pro looking light effect!
Pro:
Super cool colors
Moves with the music
Creates a great atmosphere in any room
Cons
None as working perfectly
I do recommend to anyone who wants some fun at home like we do.
Take care and enjoy this light you will love it!

Suprisingly
I needed some DMX lights to play around with for not too much money since I'll mostly be using them for personal use. These lights have way more features than lights that were double the price several years ago.
The brightness is perfect and close to what my 64 Led Par produces, the beam angle is a bit tight and the colors don't mix super well, but it's good enough for this price. When combining colors you can quite clearly tell the mix of colors when shining onto a surface, but this is honestly not a big issue for me.
I first tried out an alternative by a competitor but it was missing some essential features which this one has so I ended up getting 2. It has 3 different DMX modes to fit your needs and the 2 brackets make it easy to put it on a flat surface as well. I use mine with a Chauvet Obey 10 DMX controller.

Watch our for the fan if you use these while recording
Bought mainly for use lighting a recording studio using DMX. The colours are bold and mixed colours (eg. yellow, purple, turquoise) are produced better than any other lights we own. If you have them above about 40% of their full capacity then they will heat up enough to trigger the internal fan, which is not loud but is too loud while recording. Fun is a great description; definitely my favourite light.

Good
For what you pay for them they are better than I expected! They weigh nothing, easy to use and are reasonably bright. One thing to watch out for is that Thomann sell different styles from Spots to washes so make sure you pick the right one.

Great primary colors, not-so-great mix
Red, blue and green are pure and strong with this light. But purple and orange don't come out so clearly.
Sound mode works well in live situations.
