A big drawback to this video is that they make no mention of the price for each of these lights. Often, you can find cheaper (and sometimes more powerful) knock-offs on eBay. The F&V R-300 is an incredible light; one they didn’t mention (I don’t know when this video was made). For $200, you can get an LED ring light that beats the LitePanel in output and throw.
Out of the lights mentioned in this video, the last two look aesthetically appealing but I’d probably go with he second light overall.
I got one from B&H for $30. It’s cheap build but it works in a pinch.
