Pixel G1s RGB Video Light, Built-in 12W Rechargeable Battery 360° Full Color 12 Light Effects, CRI≥97 2500-8500K Portable LED Video Light with Aluminum Alloy Body

This was an impulse buy during a lightning deal because I thought it'd be fun to have a smaller companion to my studio sized RGB LED panels, but to my surprise this little Pixel G1s ended up being much more useful and is now the first colored light I reach for whenever I shoot. Right off the bat, you can tell that it's solidly built, from the heft of the metal enclosure to the smooth action of the radial dials. I wasn't expecting this level of quality at this price. Then you have the lighting options themselves. This is where its versatility really shines. You have a solid bi-color spectrum from the warmth of 2500K all the way to an icy white 8500k along with the full gamut of RGB colors controlled via hue and saturation. There's a handy color strip on the back, right next to the control LCD, that shows the wide range of color options. Finally, there are special effect which give you great lighting tricks for your videos; cop/ambulance lights, the flicker of a TV late at night, and candlelight, just to name a few. The cherry on top are the accessories and the fantastic metal arm. Not only does the metal arm have several mounting spots, but it also comes with a cold shoe mount for additional filming/photography accessories. If the arm doesn't give you enough room to wiggle then the ball joint it comes with takes care of the rest. It's a lot of bang for your buck. It's also so easy to recharge because of its type-C connector and if you are short on cables, it comes with one. I'm tempted to snag a couple more of these puppies during the next sale. They are pretty powerful lighting units that won't break your wallet.

Really good quality product. It's superb like for small portable camera light. The overall device built quality and materials are superb high tech, metal body cold shoe metal frame and fittings fit free made me really surprised especially comparing this to the competition product almost identical one but for twice as much as this one I've got right now. One of the best investments in camera lighting equipment. Thank you.

Great light for the money, the casing is made of solid metal and the battery life is fantastic. Has plenty of lighting options that you can tweak quite easily using the dials and buttons on the sides. So you can tweak between cold and warm colours, the HSI spectrum and then there's a few fun effects to play with like police lights, flash guns etc. It is extremely bright! I normally have this set to 20% but have used it at 100% for night time shots and it is powerful! Great investment in all fairness, probably going to grab a couple more when lockdown ends!

EDIT 2: The first unit I received was unfortunately a defective unit, but after contacting the company they did all they could to fix things and sent a new one. This new light works perfectly, much better than I was hoping for. The light is very strong, blinding if looked directly at at maximum strength and the build quality is very good. You got to love good metal accessory. Overall I really recommend not just for the light in itself, but for the amazing customer support. Well done. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ EDIT: I have contacted the seller and they are doing all they can to send me a new light to make up for the defective unit. So far I've been very impressed with customer support, so I raised the star review. I'll update the review once I receive the new light. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At first I was really impressed. The product is very well built and feels premium with its metal build. But I must have received a defective unit as while the lights go on, the led remain off.

So I bought two of these for video and stills and have had them for appx. a week now. I have yet to experience any overheating problems or shutdowns and only managed to fully drain the battery once (after maybe 6hrs @20% brightness mixed warmth). They are a solid build and even if others have complained thay they are heavy I consider them quite light at ~300g (~10.5oz) compared to similar output panels/lights or camera strobes +gels and batteries. Setting the color or light temperature can be somewhat fiddly but after playing around a little you get a feel for it. It is worth noting that at anything above 50% power, these are BRIGHT. Do NOT look directly at the light at anything above 50% if the light is closer than 1.5m (5 feet). I foresee many use cases for these and I am quite happy with my purchase so far, they seem worth it for the price and definitely a good purchase if you are considering pricier panels but not sure if you really should. The only real con I've found is the they have no way of mounting in landscape mode naturally.

For such a small package, it's a superb light! The different settings make it useful for everything - I've used it for macro product photography, videography as a backlight, setting ambience in a room at a party - I mean...it's a light, so the uses are pretty normal...but there's settings I haven't seen before, like lightning, camera flashes, fire, and emergency vehicle! The battery life isn't too bad at lower brightness, but the main issue I've seen is recharging time - it seems to take forever! But as long as you keep it topped up, it's a fabulous little light, and is now a staple in my camera bag!

This was a god send. I bought them back in 2021 as a Uni student doing film production, worked great for that, they are still going. Coz of the size it makes them very portable, I can easly fit them (i bought 2) in my small camera bag with the camera and lenses. They are so powerful that I used at night outdoors and it made it look like we where shooting in the day time.

I'm pleased with this little but powerful led panel. Good construction quality that feels solid. Nice physical buttons and dialers for adjustments. The actual light is soft and it perfectly matches what you would get from more expensive equipment. It's also small (maybe the size of a smartphone) and light. I use it for my constant zoom meetings combined with a good webcam and it noticeably enhanced how I look (at least to the extent that's possible considering yours truly). Take a look at the attached pictures on the dimmest and brightest setting.
