Frequently Asked Questions

How do strobe lights work?

Originally designed to study moving objects and derived from the greek term Strobos meaning "to whirl", a strobe light has inner flashtubes that will emit hundreds of small flashes of light repeatedly to create it's slow motion effect.

What uses do Strobe lights have?

Strobe lights are used in many instances, the mentioned party aspect is an obvious given but they are also used in the scientific & industrial sectors too.

Professional scuba divers use strobes to signal underwater emergencies to colleagues for instance but you'll definitely notice the whirling or flashing of alarm systems or emergency service vehicles, very useful indeed.

Are strobe lights dangerous?

If used improperly, strobe lights can indeed be dangerous to sufferers of epilepsy, it is strongly advised you do not experiment with strobe lights if this condition affects you and if you do ever happen to come into contact with a strobe light, we advise you to keep your distance where possible to minimise problems.

What does strobe mean on LED lights?

If you see strobe as an option on LED lights, this means that it will be able to flash at a rapid rate to effectively achieve a stop-motion effect for your parties.

Strobe lights usually provide either cool- or warm-white flashing, but there are also many options that have various colours such as red, green, and blue.

Can I use strobe lights for house parties?

Yes, strobe lights are completely legal to be used for house parties, and they are perfect to achieve an exciting atmosphere that also works nicely for Halloween parties.

It is always recommended, however, to make sure that none of your guests suffer from epilepsy, as flashing lights could cause them to have a fit.

How many strobe lights do I need?

For house parties or events in small venues, one strobe light will be enough to fill the whole room with flashing light.

If your party is being held in a larger venue, such as a function room or hall, then two or more strobe lights will be better.

How powerful of a strobe do I need?

To choose the correct powered strobe light, you should first consider the size of the venues you will be using it in, as well as the effect that you want to achieve.

For example, if you will only be using it for house parties, a small unit would be sufficient, but if you will be using it in larger venues and you want a stop-motion effect throughout the whole room, it would be best to purchase a powerful unit.
