Review on Sokani Bi Color 2800K 10000K Photography Recording by Donald Phillips

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal budget solution for directional and powerful portable lighting

This Sokani light is an extension of their X60 full color RGB product and comes with a reflector that increases the performance of the LED elements. They added a glass protector that you can see screwed onto the LEDs as they are often rough and brittle. It puts out 6820 lux at 1 meter with the reflector on, which is lower than many other dual color lights, but it's an RGB light that sacrifices lux for full color gamut and I found I rarely turned the light on. In any case, the productivity exceeds 50%. Another thing that Sokani has added to its lineup with its 2 X60 version is a more secure mounting bracket. There are now ARRI rosette teeth that prevent the case from tipping down when you put weight on it forward. The mounting bracket attaches to any standard light pole with sockets for both horizontal and vertical positions. You also get an AC adapter to power it up, which plugs into the bottom of the light, but that side of the cord is very short so it can't reach the ground. For now I've just mounted the power supply on top of the flashlight and its cables hold it in place, but I have to use a clamp on site and wish they had made the cable longer on the shipping side. since it is much easier to extend the AC cable. The rear panel display is bright enough for daytime use and shows you everything you need. At the end of this video I explain each function in detail and show you how to control your smartphone on the same screen. Everything is packed in the supplied well-padded carrying case. I highly recommend this product as an affordable, versatile option for powerful and focused video lighting.

Pros
  • Got it!
Cons
  • Security
