Creates an awesome effect of lightning. Perfect for my cemetery decor. Realistic and much better than a strobe.

Perfect Storm 2.0 works like a charm and as advertised. I didn't listen to the audio samples on the included CD but I did do my homework up front to ensure that my lights didn't exceed 1,000 watts. The build in microphone was perfect outside only about 6 inches from the bluetooth speaker. I connected the speaker to my iphone and drove the effects sound over Bluetooth. I did not purchase a 3.5mm audio cable to test out. I searched itunes for various tracks to test out and the best one that worked for me was "Heavenly Weather (Thunderstorm Sounds) 2017 - Track 5 - Thunder and Lightning". I let the track play through and kept adjusting the sensitivity knob to get the right amount of lightning flash vs. rain. It worked like a charm and I got so many compliments from both the trick-or-treaters and the parents. Definitely worth the investment. For the record, because it's an electronic device, I did not leave it out in the rain. For next year, I'm going to cut out a rectangular hole in a plastic storage container to allow the sound to get to the microphone and put the unit inside of the container with the lid on to keep the moisture out. We will see!UPDATE: I've taken impeccable care of my Perfect Storm 2.0, packing it in the original box each year and have never dropped it or gotten it wet. I was disappointed to set it up the day before Halloween to test it out to find out it no longer works. While the unit is 4 years old, it's worked like a charm and I've only had it on for about 4 hours on Halloween night only for the past 4 years. I'm using the same 300-watt light fixture I've used each year that has worked fine and this year the light just stays lit up and it doesn't respond to the soundtrack I always use. I tried the built-in microphone and the 3.5 mm auxiliary jack and neither works. I still give it 5 starts but I'm pretty disappointed it didn't last longer than 4 years, given the limited use.

Works great. I used it for lightning and thunder but it can be used for music you can plug in colored lights because its sound sensitive. Endless possibilities

Although I didn't get to use it for Halloween this year, I set it up and it worked perfectly! I ripped the CD onto my computer, and the thunder sound effects are pretty realistic! I used a blue LED flood light to look like natural lightning.I will be using it for next year on Halloween for my cemetery scene, although with the lame curfew hours nowadays, (trick or treating starting at 5:30 before it's even dark for over an hour!! 🤬) It won't show up until about 7:00 7:30 at night. This Gen X mama is fed up with these dumb rules nowadays. Totally ruins Halloween.But I digress. This is an amazing addition to any Halloween yard haunt!!

The reaction time is right on the money.

Worked exactly like it was suppose to. I had multiple lights on a power bar hooked up to it to work simultaneously. Did not use the CD I had a track on my phone already

Love this product !Added a whole new level to our Haunted House !Only suggestion would be to reduce some of the thunder gaps in the CD. These gaps are reaslistic but some quick house passes missed the full effect.
