You get what you pay for!

I know what you are thinking. 200 dollars. For the world. It's worth every penny. Easy to set up. Insane amount of control. Full light coverage. And it just looks great in your setup. The included stand allowed me to throw it on my desk minutes after rearranging some wires. This is a quality stand that gets the job done. Elgato Control software lets you control your light right from your desktop. This is very useful for setting the ideal brightness/color temperature when setting up your camera for OBS or XSplit (especially when trying to get the color key set up properly). The ability to control it from the Stream Deck is another great feature. As silly as it sounds, it's nice to just press a button on the Stream Deck and turn on the light. At the moment I only have 1 light source and it illuminates me perfectly. I use a Nanoleaf to light my left side and a small softbox light to properly light my green screen. I'll probably pick up another Key Light in a few months and put one on each side of me, but until then 1 is working fine. And finally. It just looks great on your setup IMO. Much better than the big softboxes, that's for sure. If you are a streamer/content creator looking for new sources of light, I cannot recommend this product highly enough. minimum possible setting. I usually use it at 15%. 100% you need sunglasses.
