This product has 2 300 watt bulbs in it and gets extremely hot (it has a less than adequate cooling fan). The instructions say to turn it off every 5 or at least every 15 minutes for a cool down period. I believe it would melt the electronics if you let it run too long. For my (home) use purposes, this was ridiculous. What you can do is remove one of the 300 watt bulbs or replace the 300 watts with 200 watt bulbs for about $5 each.
I found just one 200 Watt bulb was still plenty of light, and cool enough for continuous operation.
Otherwise very nice light and appears well made (metal not plastic, etc).

I think this is the best way to throw a lot of colored light (with motion) for the least amount of money. These lights, like most I guess, are fragile and if you bang them around they will quit moving to music and even worse, quit lighting up. I have had some break shortly after I had them and a few last a couple of years. I can only assume that bumping them is what caused them to stop working. Even though they have not lasted forever, I still buy them because I see the value in them. Not sure why they went to an all blue light, I think you can still order the multiple colored, which I think is more festive.
