The Awaited Viltrox K60 Tubelight

[@domenucakar]

I just bought two TL30 lights a few days ago, and now this came out for the same price, but double the power output... Are these worth it? Should I send TL30s back?

[@thomasfransson]

If you’re happy with your TL30’S and they get the job done, keep them. Unless you need/want the bigger size and extra output of the K60

[@domenucakar]

@@thomasfransson I actually haven't received them yet, they are supposedly coming tomorrow. But yeah, I would appreciate more powerful lights, as I was first looking at TL60, but settled on TL30's because I could get two of them for the same money. Do you think the color accuracy of K60 is on par with TL30's?

[@thomasfransson]

How are those TL30’S working out for you? Did you keep or return? Sorry about the late check-in.

i bought a set of these and they are ok for the money but.... they get hot, when you charge it you dont habe any type of indication if its charged or not, in my case the app, android, didnt worked from play store and my smartphone is a 2 year equip, viltrox add to send the apk.file or else no app function! thanks for the video

[@thomasfransson]

That's odd, I've used the app on at least 3 smartphones and two tablets and it's always swift. Maybe some type of permission that's missing like location? That needs to be on when pairing pretty much every light.

[@deanpeter2on]

Just bought one of these on your recommendation and it's great. I'm gonna get that grid and see if it fits.

[@thomasfransson]

Awesome, welcome to the club!

What tripod did you mount it into?

[@thomasfransson]

The 1/4-20 threads on the light can be mounted on pretty much any tripod, friction arm or device in general with 1/4-20 threads. On the Example shots in the studio around 1:20 it's mounted on a friction arm with a super clamp, the clamp gripping an autopole mounted in the studio ceiling. In the example at 3:14 it's threaded on to the spigot of a regular light stand. But I also use it a lot on it self just leaning it against something or putting it directly on the floor.

hi thanks for the video, i have bougth this Viltrox K60 kit but how to know the Viltrox K60 is fully charged? i have charged the Viltrox K60 whole night about 8-9 hours, and the battery indicator still the same logo from the time i start charge so how do actually know the Viltrox K60 is actually fully charged?

[@thomasfransson]

That's because It uses the same display section to also indicate continuous power if you’re running the light in a studio setting. Depending on the output on the charger you're using it should take 2-4h to charge the K60 from 0-100% If you unplug the cable you'll see the current battery level. And knowing how long it takes you will know without looking.

@@thomasfransson nice 👍 Thanks for your information 🙂

Hi, how can I connect my mobile phone to the lamp? I can't turn on bluetooth. What to do with the lamp? 😉

[@thomasfransson]

Make sure location is on when you launch the app and it should find the light immediately.

[@kaistudio8229]

sir may i know which part to set the location, in the app setup i only see "Language" and "About" @@thomasfransson by the way i use iphone

[@thomasfransson]

Location on your phone before launching the app and make sure the app can use your location data for pairing with the light. Mine worked straight out of the box without any Bluetooth adjustments on the light. Even if I'm on Android I'm pretty sure the issue is on the phone side. Also make sure you’re using the right app. I believe there might be two different ones.
