Using more rich material seems to suggest that the CL-1 is better. But I did notice some audio artifacts in the voice. These where not coming from the devices themselves, but from something added in post production?

There was absolutely no difference when examining the waveforms, so I would guess that any artifacts would be differences in how I spoke each time, or KZbin audio processing, because the samples were all raw audio.

If you are into a bit of DIY then there are lots of high wattage charging stations/hubs designed to be used in cars which could be easily adapted to use off of a battery. Either using a dtap plug to 12v socket or if you have basic soldering skills or know someone that does just add a dtap plug in place of the car plug. Most of these vehicle usb charging units work from 9v up to over 30v (check ratings as they vary between devices). They are also very electrically robust as a cars electrical outlet can vary quite a lot in voltage as well as having intermittent voltage sags and spikes.

At that weight and price you might as well get a huge lantern ball and call it a day
@NewLayer 9 күн бұрын
That's definitely an option, although a 600x with a lantern (or a comparable parabolic softbox, since a lantern is a lot different in terms of how it outputs light) is going to weigh a little more (the AirHalo + it's frame is 13.5lbs). At the same time, this is only 8" deep, while a 600x + softbox is going to be 3-4' depending on the modifier, so the bigger difference is in the form factor and how the weight is distributed. I'm definitely not saying the AirHalo is better in every way, they both have their strengths and weaknesses, so you just have to buy whatever makes the most sense for the type of work you do.
@james-ui4ul 10 күн бұрын
Why has the skirt silver inside?? You use a skirt to block any spill light from the source. The silver even creates spill light...
@NewLayer 10 күн бұрын
There's plenty of silver skirts out there, DOPChoice makes both both silver and black for a lot of lights for example. The skirt is also 2 separate pieces, and each piece is split in half, so you can fold/roll up a quarter of the skirt at a time. So, if you need to avoid spill in 1 direction only, you can attach only 1 piece and block 90-180 degrees, and the silver isn't going to spill any light in that direction. If you are wanting to block the light in all directions, I would just use the grid. The skirt is quite long, so even though the interior is silver, if you have all the pieces on and down, hardly any light comes out the end at unwanted angles. I can understand if you needed black interior, although it would be a pretty specific situation where the difference would be noticeable in my opinion. It would be interesting to see a direct comparison of the same skirt design with black Vs. silver, and perhaps they'll release an all black version if there's enough demand for it.

Hi what was it like rigging it overhead? Curious how the form factor, ball head, cable length factors into mounting and adjusting. Thank you!
@NewLayer 10 күн бұрын
The overhead setup I did was with the included gooseneck on the end of a boom arm with a sandbag hanging off the back. The light itself is only about 13.5lbs (with its frame), so it's very lightweight for how big it is, and easy to counterweight. The ball head holds strong, so I just made sure it was at the right angle before raising it up. The included cable is plenty long for me at 13', I keep most of it bungie'd together, but it could go up to 15' or so since there is some more cable coming out the light itself and if the controller is mounted 3-4' off the floor. The do have an optional 26' cable as well if you need to put it somewhere really far away. You could easily hang it by the X-frame too and not even connect the gooseneck part if you've got something to hook it on to. I hope that helps!

This seems like the perfect travel light when flying but the 44lbs is too much. I can get 2-3 flexible LEDs with 600w of power in a bag for under 50lbs.
@NewLayer 10 күн бұрын
The case is too big to be a carryon, and not a checkable bag, so I wouldn't try. You'd definitely want to swap over to an injection molded case for that. It is still lighter than a 600x + 36" soft box. 2-3 smaller lights is always an option, but then you have 2-3 stands, and a few smaller, dimmer sources doesn't always work if you need a single, brighter one (and vice versa). There's always a different ideal for everyone. Out of curiosity, which 2 or 3 lights are you thinking of that would come in under 50lbs? Usually it's more efficient weight-wise to have a single 600W light Vs. separate smaller lights that add up to 600W since the controllers and other accessories for each stack up so quickly.

I own a lot of lights and I’ve been really happy with Falconeyes for the travel kit. 2 RX36TDX & 1 RX29. FE LEDs have been improved since 2017 when they originally came out. Brackets are better and softboxes fold down. Fixtures are light weight and work well on Matthews reverse stands. Sometimes I bring a Nanlite 300b or 500D (720Bs are too bulky). The Falconeyes can be combined to form a large key. I also have been playing with inflatable options like the Ulanzi 20W with built in battery or the Light Bank Mito Airtube which attaches to any Bowens COB dish.

Either one works very well with a little EQ in post, which should really be done anyways, so I don't really even consider it a con since it's no extra work.

I requested that the company furnish a return address so I could return the unopened boxes. Despite several requests, the company has not given me the address I requested. Indeed, it took days before I could even get a response. It's as though no one works there. The company is messing around with me and it seems that it simply does not want to honor it promise to refund. My advice: Stay away.
