Mobile DJs can elevate their performances and attract more bookings by investing in affordable, high-impact laser setups. Here are three smart choices from X-Laser, with each package coming in under $3,000.
(Pricing estimates are accurate as of June 2025, do not include applicable shipping or tax, and may vary based on the X-Laser dealer you choose.)
Level up with Aurora Series Lasers
If you're looking to make a significant impact without breaking the bank, our Aurora series is an excellent choice. In fact, X-Laser was founded by a mobile DJ who wanted to affordably add lasers to his event setups, and the Aurora series continues that legacy today.
The Aurora 4C and Caliente Aurora units are particularly suitable for mobile DJs at any skill level. These lasers offer super wide beam coverage, making them perfect for creating intense liquid skies and aerial beam effects that easily fill small and midsize indoor venues.
Both units are user-friendly, compact, and can be fully controlled via DMX, including auto and sound active modes via DMX, so they play well with your playlist and other effect lights. The Aurora series is also designed with safety in mind, as they cannot scan up into the sky or down into the audience, ensuring a safe performance.
Given the importance of haze for making laser beams visible, we recommend leaving room in your budget for a small haze machine. This will enhance the visibility and overall impact of your laser light show, and keep the dance floor full.
Package 1:
-
2 x Aurora 4C or Caliente Aurora laser systems ($1,149 each)
-
1 x Magmatic MAGMA Prime hazer ($598)
-
Package total: $2,896
Personalize Performances with the LaserCube by Wicked Lasers
For those who want a versatile and highly portable laser system, the LaserCube by Wicked Lasers stands out. Specifically, the 2.5W WiFi and 2.5W Ultra models fit perfectly within the $3,000 budget suggested in this post, with some room to add accessories and make your shows even more spectacular.
What makes the LaserCube particularly appealing is how its free LaserOS software gives you the ability to project custom text, graphics, and logos, offering a personalized touch for weddings, corporate events, and other celebrations. Beyond its customization capabilities, the LaserCube can also provide stunning aerial beam effects, making it a versatile tool for any DJ setup.
Its compact size and ease of use make it an ideal choice for mobile DJs who need to quickly set up and break down their equipment, and don’t want to worry about adding another bulky piece of gear to their setup. With its battery-operated design (while also being able to operate while plugged in to power), the LaserCube offers flexibility and convenience, allowing you to focus on delivering an unforgettable performance that’s expertly tailored to your clients.
