Like the title says.... I currently have a black ADJ Pro-Event table. I also have a white scrim for it to use at weddings or if/when needed. When I play at bars or parties, I like the look of some uplighting under my table (whether I'm using a scrim or not). Some day, I hope to have a collection of Chauvet Freedom Par Hex's... but a set of those just aren't in my budget right now. I was looking at maybe the T3 bluetooth light bar. Does anyone have any other suggestions for something in the $200 or less range that would fit the bill for this? I'd prefer DMX capabilities, but it's not a necessity. Just something I can set the colors on if I desire, and will play by sound activation and presets.

Since it's ust under the table, why not use those led strips from like amazon. Won't even cost $20.

I'm considering those type of options as well. Some of the strips are ribbon-like... I don't want that. I guess I'm still a little undecided... I could mount a strip on the underside of my table and be done, or I also like the idea of having something I can use under there but also re-purpose it if need be and use somewhere else. Maybe I'd never have a need for that... I don't know... thanks for the suggestion though.

Yeah but they can be tucked so they're not seen, which if it's an exposed table, could be beneficial.

Led pars work for me. ADJ flat mega pars easy . I use DMX or obey 6.
Something use skrims on stands & use the same pars under my table. Any color you choose & chase to the music once the party starts.
 
I don't know if they still sell them but I have 2 ADJ Wify RGB lights that I think can be used sound activated. I'm helping a friend out and decided to use those 2 lights along with some others I have for a big party they are having on November 27th in Kenilworth, NJ.
 
Cheap Option:

Rockville Par 50 with carry bag. Also white so they will match a white scrim and blend in


More Expensive option, but will cover almost entire length of a 4 foot table and provide great coverage. ADJ UB 12H Light Bar

My Megabar is the older style, doesnt have the UV, but its the same length.
 
For under the table lighting I use something like this RGB LED Flood light. It's small and controlled by an app on your phone or you can use the small remotes that come with them. They come in different sizes and wattages. I have 4 of them mounted in front of my house and I use them to change the lighting for holidays. They look pretty good under a table with white scrim as well.

Thanks for the input all. I may try the tape lights. I was going to avoid them for two reasons:
1. Didn't know if they would be bright enough for what I want.
2. I was afraid they'd fall.

Solutions:
1. I'll try them and see. For a few bucks, I'll know for sure. If they are bright enough, win for me. If not, I'll give them to the local bar or something.
2. I'll just hot glue or staple them to the underside of my table and see how I like it.
 
I use one of my lights, pointed straight up. It gives the front white facad a smooth coloring.
You can find these for 199 on sale, keep an eye out for the sale on GC.
I have 2 of these packs and I leave them on sound control and they work well.87FC3754-C25A-4346-BDFB-9D325E26B424.png

I don’t think he’s using a spandex facade, I think he’s doing just metal. Haven’t gotten clarification on that though as his facade has both looks.

Sorry, I should have clarified... if doing a wedding or more formal event, I will be using a white spandex scrim around my ADJ pro event table.
