RALENO 13" LED Video Light, 19.5W Panel Camera Light with LCD Display Built-in 8000mAh Battery Dimmable 2500-6500K Bi-color and CRI 95+ lighting for Video Recording Studio YouTube Photography

I make videos for YouTube and for work and I wanted a soft, bright and controllable light to improve the quality of the videos. When this unit arrived I charged it (it has a UK mains plug) and then tried it out. I'm delighted with the power output (controllable both as to amount and colour temperature) and the softness of the light. Whatever covering they have over the LED lights gives a very nice soft quality to it. It's essentially its own small softbox. It feels solidly made, looks good and it's a sensible size yet still very slim. The removable tripod mount foot gives some extra versatility although I have light stands so I'll screw the light straight onto them. I was a bit surprised at just how much power this puts out. It allowed me to drop the ISO on my camera, for better video quality. As the light is both rechargeable and colour temperature controllable it would make for a great fill or accent light outdoors. Of course you can also use this for still photography, not just video. I did some test shots of my watches and it proves to be a very versatile light source. The even coverage allows for very fine control and coupled with careful placement you can get all kinds of lighting effects - which you can see in real time.

I'm not going to waste time writing anything about how this light works, or taking photos of it, since other reviewers have done a good job of that and there are plenty of photos to see the size and how the display looks etc. The main thing that needs to be said is that this light is ridiculously bright - it can light an entire room really well, and I've used it on quite a few video shoots where the lights in the room weren't quite bright enough. It's like adding an extra bulb to a room, or opening the blinds. It's great. It goes from 1% to 100% brightness, but at 1% it's already pretty bright. That can be a little annoying sometimes since it doesn't feel much different at 1% to 20%, but I rarely need anything below its lowest setting. I don't know exactly how accurate the cool and warm tones are, but it seems decent, although it's markedly less bright when going to either extreme, and is brightest at 4200K, which is a little on the cold side. I've tested the battery time, and on 4200K (the brightest setting) on 100% power it lasts just under 90 minutes, which is impressive to say the least! I haven't tested it on the lower settings but I imagine it lasts for hours on 50% or below. You can also power it from the included DC adapter - but it has to be said that it's not a normal 5.5mm x 2.1mm jack like you get with most DC appliances these days, it's actually a 5.5mm x 3mm jack, which is really hard to buy an extension cable for, so you need to keep it close to a plug socket if you want to use it that way, or buy a socket extension. Not a huge deal, but it would have been nicer to use a standard adapter. The battery inside charges via the DC input and takes just under 2 hours to fully charge from 0%, which is pretty decent, and means you can potentially buy two and charge one while using the other, for a near constant availability of light source. It would have been nice to have a battery port on the back, but as a budget light goes it's really good. It's also very light, weighing in at just over 600g, which is only slightly more than two of the Sony NP-F970 batteries that are used to power a lot of other lights. Overall it's a really good quality budget light, and I've been really impressed by it! 👇🏻 If you find this review helpful, please click the helpful button below!

I am really happy with the Raleno video light. It's nice and compact, very bright and the warm range is enough for what I need. I particularly like that the controls are on the side, since it allows me to lay it flat and perfectly horizontal on a table, which is great to scan negatives. Most of all the other video lights don't offer this. The LCD at the back is also very bright and clear. The only drawback is then when I reduce brightness, the color shifts. So you have to adjust the temperature again. Overall, I am very happy with this product.

Best Gadget I’ve invested in as a content creator lightweight it’s quite sturdy. Battery life isn’t bad too

Excellente lampe vidéo, la luminosité est puissante et réglable selon les besoins. Compacte, facile à utiliser et idéale pour la photo ou la vidéo

En realidad es mi segunda pantalla de este modelo aunque no de esta marca. La primera era de neewer y ya la quitaron de catálogo aunque esta es exacta, lo que me da a suponer que el fabricante no es ni uno ni otro. En cualquier caso y después de dos años de la primera compra ( Neewer) funciona perfectamente con buena intensidad lumínica con duración real a máxima potencia superior a la hora y vente y con carga en tan solo dos horas. Para vídeo, podcast y como es nuestro caso maquillaje es perfecta.

Echt een ontdekking. Met deze lampen kunnen mijn leerlingen met goed licht overal hun stop motion video maken

I have so far purchased three S192 and one S104 and I'm very pleased with their quality of light, power, reliability and battery capacity. Most video LED lights have slots for NP-batteries, yet are typically shipped without batteries. Not so for S192, which has 2 x 4000mAh internal batteries and ships with a power supply. S192 has a led display indicating the colour temperature, relative output power and remaining battery percentage. I find the portability of these lights very good, they are not heavy and they don't take much space in your bag. I'll be using two of these units as a key and filler, and a third one for hair light for shooting interviews. The smaller S104 is suitable as an on-camera light. Until now I have been lighting up green screen backgrounds with softboxes equipped with fluorescent bulbs, but will consider using multiple S192 led panels in the future. For multiple light setups, having a remote controller would be an asset. I'd love to see RaLeno coming with a new, maybe even larger led panel models with a remote controller, or a possibility to use a smartphone for controlling the lights, while maintaining well established design and quality aspects from S192.
