I'm looking for something to replace a mirror ball. I want it to be LED, but I also what it to be bright. I have looked on AM DJ site and Chauvet, but its hard to tell what it really looks like and how slow it will turn. Any suggestions will help.

I use this, it can be pole mounted facing out, it can be mounted on a ceiling facing down or against a wall facing out. You can also change directions. There is a little remote controller you can use for it. http://www.americandj.com/ProductDetails.aspx?Category=&ItemNumber=1997
 
How slow will turn? Is it bright enough?
Bright enough for what I want it to do. There are a few different speed settings you can set.

Previewed one of those LED star balls (half-ball). Not impressed. IMO, it wouldn't do for a large goom.
 
A mirror ball and pin spots have no equal.

I have the ADJ LED Starball (half-ball) and it does just fine in a small to average room.
I've used it in large rooms with success...but it really doesn't have enough beams to cover a big space.
You could buy two, and double the coverage.

I had the "full-ball" halogen version, and it worked great...
but it weighs a lot, and gets too hot for my taste.

Truth is...nothing compares to the original.

I've used the star balls in all kinds of rooms too with success. I also agree that there is no replacement for the original - LOVE the mirror ball!

Hard to beat the old school mirror ball.I use the large 24" with 4 Chauvet Intimidator 150 LED spots. Big room with a little haze.....just awesome!!!! Star balls are ok and quick to setup. I use 2 Hemisphere 5 RGBWA once in awhile for schools.
