CNC Aluminum On-Camera LED Video Light

This was good when I got it, great brightness, well built, good info panel. Now after very little use, I went to use it and the battery was dead, and it won't take a charge. Contacting Moman for warranty with only 8 days left on 1 year warranty, NOT 2 AS IN DESCRIPTION.Moman & seller Videonet response was great, even though it took a few days. They replaced the whole unit within 2 weeks without having to send the original unit back. So I took the original unit apart after receiving the replacement, and it was the battery(2850mah) that failed, showed zero volts(for a lithium that is dead, dead, dead, not chargeable). So, being formerly in electronics repair, I remembered I had a couple cell phone batteries around. The one I choose was out of a Galaxy S3, it was less amps(1875mah) and a bit thicker(had to remove 2 magnets inside the case that make this magnetic), but it worked well, then I had a extended battery(4400mah) out of same phone, soldered it in parallel, cut a hole in back panel for wires, glued it to back panel. Now the bad one works for about 3 hours, but the display does predict run time properly bc it was likely programmed for installed battery as there is no "sense" wire connection like cell phones have for that purpose.All in all, very happy with new one, and the old one with the replacements, much brighter than I remembered also.They seem to have a new model that uses twice the leds with a bigger battery and a little bigger size that can also be used as a usb battery charger, ingenious and well worth looking into.

Just received product, using it for Zoom. Was skeptical of light output given its size - oh boy was I wrong. I'm using this thing at only 10% brightness (@ 3500K), lights up my face and torso with no problem whatsoever. At 100% brightness I can illuminate a 6'x6' section of wall from only 2 feet away. This thing has crazy light output. The buttons are very simple and intuitive, the LCD display tells you exactly what you need to know (brightness level in %, color temp in K, and battery level in %), and the build quality is superb. It's an aluminum tank, not worried at all about this thing breaking. Ordered a Wali monitor arm (M001XL), which will sit behind my monitor with the light magnetically attached so I can adjust the light up/down/left/right as needed. Confirmed that the light works while plugged in, so I can make it a permanent setup. And whenever I want to use it for photo shoots, I can just unplug the USB-C and pull it right off the plate and go. Had no idea these types of lights were out there, super happy with this purchase.

I was pleased with this light upon purchase. Worked great. Very right. Battery life was great. Unfortunately the build quality is less than desirable. My light lasted 8 months. Of which it was only used a few times.

The light is surprisingly compact for the amount of light it puts out. The unit feels well built and the quality of light output is great.I mainly use this light to help with all the video conferencing calls that many of us are doing these days. For that purpose the light works perfectly. The neutral white high cri leds help keep the lighting natural looking. I am also planning on using this light for some macro photography.Changing the color temperature or brightness levels can be a bit tedious, mainly due to the large number of steps in levels. However, I do not find myself changing those settings often. The power input seems to be 5V only, so not all USB-C chargers will work. However, I like the fact that the unit has USB-C at all.The light did develop a fault where the power button stopped working, but the company support was great and readily replaced the unit.

This light has some awesome features and I really like it, but sometimes it's not useable.I use this light with my GoPro camera to make car repair videos. It has all the features I need:Adjustable color temperatureAdjustable brightnessSmall sizeEven flood lightUSB-C charging connector1/4-20 tripod mount.This light is almost perfect, however, if I keep it on for more than 20 minutes at 50% power, it will randomly turn off. The battery isn't dead - it just doesn't want to work. Car repair videos are hard enough to make already, and I don't want to stop and wait for my dumb light to decide to work again.One time I think it turned off because it overheated. I had it on for 15 minutes at 90% power. Today, it wasn't hot and turned off after 20 minutes.If this light was just a bit more reliable, I would give it 5 stars and recommend it to everyone. At this point, it's useable, but not perfect. I wouldn't trust it filming somewhere away from home.

The Momon light is great for vlogging and easy to adapt to your rig if you have right equipment. It has adjustable lighting which effects battery life with a screen that displays both battery life and color temperature. It takes about two hours to fully charge, and recommend that you unplug when the charge is complete. I also like the fact it has a USB C charging port and cable that comes with it.The aluminum case helps with dissipation of heat, and can be screwed on to a mount along the sides. Depending on the tripod it can add some extra weight which can cause your vlogging rig to be a little unbalanced.There oblong cutouts that can be used for attaching Röde wireless microphone receivers or lapel mics.It is thin enough to not take up much space for storage, easy to quickly mount and use.The only improvement I would make is for it to come with a magnetic mount option, but that is a easy enough fix.
