Laserworld CS-1000 RGB

The name of this laser (CS/Club Series) suggests its good for a club setting, well it's not really. The green laser is far too dim (50mW) relative to the red (250mW) and blue (450mW) lasers. This is mainly seen when all three lasers are used at the same time. The scanner, although quoted as reasonably fast, is not that great either. In setting the laser up with Pangolin, you realise that the practical scan rate is more in the region of 10kpps as opposed to 30kpps. The laser can be set at 30kpss with the downside that beams lose their tightness, but appear flicker less. The flicker (or whatever the technical term is) is quite pronounced at 10kpss for complex patterns, less so for simple patterns. I guess if you have a lot of time to spend you can optimise the displayed patterns' scan rate to strike a balance. If you have the money rather go for the CS-2000 SE.

Great lasers. Great value

I have been using this effect for the past year and have only got really positive things to say about it. I don't have the pangolin software as its too expensive for a mobile DJ! I just leave this on sound to light and many people over the year have come up to me and said how good an effect it is. It randomly picks the colours to project and has several different patterns which it displays. The amount of colour and beams from this machine is amazing and really there is no need to purchase any other laser with this one as it is so effective. I don't have it flight cased as the box it came in has sufficient packaging to keep it safe. If being forced to make a complaint about this effect, it would be that it is very strong on light and needs to be faced outwards instead of down to the floor so as to avoid directly hitting the eyes of the public. But really this is clutching at straws and everyone knows not to look directly into a laser!! Seriously great piece of kit and I wouldn't be without it on any of my shows.

Very good laser for small to medium sized venue's. It's pretty powerful and put's my other lasers to shame (Kam 170 RGY & Kam 300 3D). The beams look great with smoke. However, with great power comes great weight and size. It's a hefty unit but the performance and light shows outweigh this minor point. For the price you can't go wrong.

this is a very versatile laser and has a humongous range of patterns/effects...amazing

this is probably the best laser i have every seen and used i use it all the time and i love it
