The Shehds Beam 275W 10R! A BIG affordable moving head light! DJ, Band, Church? Check These Out!

This is a review and demo of the shehds 10R 275W Beam! This is a great large moving head that is a variation of the 7R. Brighter and better! It has a price point of less than $500 US and is worth it in my opinion. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Guys, please do not buy any products from SHEHDS lighting or you'll just waste your money. I bought a pair of 160-watt led moving heads and the shipment took 7 days from China to Canada which is not too bad. Unfortunately, 1 unit does not focus and the gears for zooming in-out is not properly working. The lights are not even as well, one is pale and one is saturated. I tried contacting Ava from SHEHDS but took me 2 days before getting a response and not very helpful. They will try to ignore you even though they are saying they have 1 year warranty BULLSHIT. This company sucks, don't buy from them.. waste of time and money.

Can I use this in slow motion with the built in auto mode or do I need a DMX controller? Great video!

If you really want it to make slow moves you will want to dmx it.

Hey Kris! Thanks for the awesome video! Haven't been on KZbin channels in forever it seems.. I just received 2 of these units and having a hard time setting them up Only because I am no math wizard as you mention in your videos. I get confused when it comes to channels/dmx addressing. I have a couple of older moving heads that I have setup years ago using a ADJ DMX 16ch Operator. I am looking to see if you have any inside tips and or suggestions? The manuals that came with these lights don't give you much information in regards to what all the functions do on the menu or go into detail on how to set them up. I'm doing something wrong cause as someone else mentioned mine is also kicking into reset mode when trying to program? Thanks -DJ Jimmy Z

[@KrisSzanto]

Thanks for watching. I am going to be checking out a newer mover from shehds soon. It is a 160W LED and about 16lbs, but I am a little worried that it doesn't have enough tile to use on totems if you are on the edge of the dance floor. We will know soon enough. I do think this light will work great for any event if you are willing to transport it. I may use it on the floor or directly behind me as a center light about 8-10 ft high.

The 10R is not a hybrid at all it’s just a beam fixture with a frost filter inside unlike the 140SR which is an actual hybrid fixture. The 10R will be brighter due to it having a more powerful lamp than the 140( 189w vs 275w). When it comes the features the 140SR has way more than the 10R . If you want a real hybrid go with the 140SR

Do you guys consider 275w to be too high to use in a private event setting? Weddings or large school dances even? I have 150w intimidators right now. I’m not trying to blind anyone out there.

[@KrisSzanto]

Thanks for watching. I am not saying that i wouldn't use them for those types of events. I just wouldn't want to transport and set them up due to the weight. Furthermore, worrying about blindong people would have to do with the placement and how you used them. I would typically use them with the prism or frost function instead of the beam because it is so tight it wouldnt have alot of effect without some atmosphere. (Haze)

[@djonyx6770]

@@KrisSzanto thanks for getting back my man! These are good points. I plan to use them for atmosphere when doors open and then “premium dance floor lighting” later. That what I do now with my Chauvet intimidator 375z’s. But I figure I can flip them for about 6-8 moving heads from both lighting and shehds. Just seems like they’re capable of so much more and for great pricing.

[@noahgauthier2909]

I bought 2 of these 10R moving head lights from SHEHDS and they seem to randomly STOP and "Reboot" I use a chauvet obey 40 DMX controller and I had it with the wireless "DONNER" DMX adapters so I though it might be those and I switched over to hardwired DMX Cables with these 2 10R lighting being the only lights added and both of them would still "reboot" at random. It seems they dont like they get overwelmed and just quit especially when Im going through different effects using sound switch. Its almost like they cant handle it. Any Idea what might be causing it?

[@KrisSzanto]

Hi Noah, I am sorry you are having that issue. My first guess- using the obey 40 - the 10r uses all 16 channels, channel 8 is the master dimmer which you probably use at 255 and channel 16 which is the same fader as 8 has the reset function from 252-255. Try running the master dimmer at around 245-250 and see if it helps. I do not really know how soundswitch works and how the profile was set up. I fear it may also be triggering the 16th Channel which can reset it and if it only sending to 15, maybe what it thinks is the next fixtures channel 1 may also be sending a signal to that 16th channel. 🤔

Super bright I actually have 4 of the 10rs and 2 of the Chauvet Intim Spot 375z and ADJ Focus Spot 4z and paired together with either spot they really pack a punch. Another great thing is if you get roadcases from Pro X, these fit into the same XS-MH140X2W as the Chauvet 375z / ADJ 4z. my only gripe about the light is i wish that there would be replaceable gobos but for a beam light they're awesome. One thing i did find with the lights is that if you do plan on hanging them, they dont have a body mounted Safety cable loop which i solved by going to McMaster Carr and getting a 1/4-20 thread Low-Visibility Eyebolt with Shoulder and adding a nutsert into the middle of the base of the light. love the lights
