Hey guys. I just built my facade this week. I'm using lycra, not frosted plexi and I'm looking for something to light up the two front panels. All I have now are par 38 cans (non led) and I'm not trying to bake or catch anything on fire underneath my table so I was hoping one of you could suggest a cheap and effective way to light it up.
I'm not trying to spend $100 each on lights that just go under my table unless it's completely necessary.
I want to be able to have both lights be the same colors at all times (not 2 sound active lights).
Thanks in advance for the help.

No heat very low power and inexpensive. I own 12 of them and I use for many situations. Here is a video of what they look like.

DAMN. Thanks so much. This is exactly what I was looking for. Are they appropriate for uplighting a whole room?

Can you control more than one light with one remote?

Yes I change all of them to one colour with just one remote.

No dasy chaining and no sound active. These were meant for a different purpose ( spot lighting ) but I bought one to test for uplighting and wash duty and it worked like a charm. for wash I put 3 to for of them on a t bar of my lighting tripod stand.
