What is the difference between the two lights? Does the MB have more features than the MP? I'm asking cause it seems the MP has more LED lights on it than the MB but costs less..
Any explanation?

Well i dont know why the cost is like that but the mega pixel has a lot more channels and options when it comes to programming. Also i think one is longer than the other. i would say the MP if your looking for the more features. MB if you looking for a standard wash stick. make sense?

Simple answers really....
Megabar is a product designed more for uplighting and wall washing due to the strength of the 10mm LEDs and the narrow beam projection angle.
The Megapixel uses 5mm LEDS which creates a more "visual" effect, so are ideal for facing and pointing towards your audiences on stage, or truss etc. The effect from the Megapixel is ideal to use for running chases, blinder effects, funky effects and general "disco" colour projection. The effect tends to have a wider beam angle too, as the 5mm LED isnt as direct.
All depends on the useage you want the product to do. The Megabar LED is also split into 3 LED RGB Segmants per bar, so you can make the effect slightly different and more exciting....not as good for visual applications though as the Megapixel.
If you want an LED bar effect to do both visual and wash effects, then thats where the Megabar Pro comes in.

wonderful.. i just bought the mega pixels I just bought 8 of these units. wanted to use them for up lighting to light a CYC drop.. Guy said they would work fine. Now i have a feeling i just made over a thousand dollar mistake...?
ok i just got all these lights in. and i must say they are awesome. They shoot light up at a 50ft wide by 35ft high CYC drop like nothing. The colors they produce are awesome. I even had some people that thought these were the led strips from color kinetics... So in my eyes mega pixel works fine for up lighting
