A compact bi-colour LED panel with a 2700–6500K range and CRI95 for realistic colours. The 120° illumination angle and 0–100% brightness control make it versatile for portraits, food shots and casual video work.


Accurate, natural colour – with 2700–6500K bi-colour LEDs and CRI95

Ninety-six high-efficiency light beads combine across a 2700–6500K range with a CRI of 95 to reproduce colours closely to sunlight. A 120° illumination angle helps spread the light evenly across subjects.

Lifelike skin tones and faithful colours reduce post-production correction and make matching ambient light simpler.

Quick adjustments on set – with a single disk control and one-button operation

A central disk button allows rotation to change colour temperature and brightness, while a separate on/off button supports long-press for max brightness mode. Physical controls avoid menus and touchscreen navigation.

Change temperature and brightness with one hand for faster setups and fewer interruptions during shoots.

Portable location power – thanks to a 2200mAh rechargeable battery

A built-in 2200mAh lithium battery delivers around 105 minutes of continuous run time at maximum output and recharges via the supplied USB Type-C cable. The manufacturer recommends an initial 2–4 hour charge to activate the battery.

Capable of short off-camera sessions and quick location work without carrying external power bricks, while allowing in-field top-ups via USB-C.
