Rockville MINI IR4 4 Pack Par Wash Lights - Compact Rechargeable DJs

In this review of the Rockville MINI IR4 4 Pack, the bottom line is simple: these compact par wash lights are built for mobile DJs, small venues, and event hosts who need bright, battery-powered color washes without hauling heavy gear. The reviewer found the set delivers surprisingly punchy output from each MINI unit while packing smart control options - app group control and wireless DMX - that make setup and live adjustments quick. The included travel bag and rechargeable batteries make this kit especially useful for gigging performers and pop-up parties.

Key Features

• Compact and bright: Each MINI IR4 houses 4x12W RGBWA+UV LEDs, providing strong color washes while occupying roughly half the footprint of traditional par cans.
• App and wireless DMX control: Operate up to four light groups with the free iOS/Android app over a 100-200 ft range or switch to built-in wireless DMX for more professional rigging.
• Long battery life: The 5000mAh rechargeable battery runs many hours on single colors and several hours when using mixed output, reducing the need for on-site power during short events.
• Sound-activated modes: Four music-sync modes let lights react to music with adjustable sensitivity and brightness via remote or app for easy choreography with DJs or bands.
• Complete portable kit: The package includes remotes, brackets, adapters, and a padded travel bag so the lights are road-ready and protected in transit.

Who It's For

The MINI IR4 set is ideal for mobile DJs, wedding DJs, small clubs, and event planners who need a portable, rechargeable lighting solution that still offers group control and wireless DMX options. The small form factor and padded travel bag make it a good choice for performers who transport gear between venues and need a fast setup.

Those looking for stadium-level output or fixtures with motorized movement should look elsewhere; these are best used for washes and uplighting rather than long-throw beam shows. Also, If an installation requires mains-only continuous high output for very long events, a mains-powered fixture with larger batteries or wired power would be preferable.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Compact size with strong color output due to 4x12W RGBWA+UV LEDs, making them easy to place and aim.
• Flexible control via free app for group control and built-in wireless DMX for pro setups.
• Long-lasting 5000mAh battery with indicator and overcharge protection for reliable gig use.
• Complete kit includes remotes, brackets, adapters, and a padded travel bag for transport and protection.

Cons

• Run times drop when using full mixed output, so all-colors shows are shorter than single-color operation.
• Not intended for large arena shows where higher lumen output or moving heads are required.
