Sunpak - COB-40 Bi-Color 40W COB LED Video Light - Black

I left it without using it for about a week and it stopped working. Won’t even charge or nothing, really sad about cuz when I got it it was really good.

[Employee of bestbuy] This is a great light and is a great option for anybody wanting to get a professional type of light for their Youtube channel or photography. Contents: It comes with a rubber softbox type of thing which is nice to start with as well as the light and power cable. It also comes with an adapter to connect it to a tripod stand as well. I found that if you don't have one you can go ahead and get one of the ring lights from Best Buy from Sunpak and it will work just fine. It's better than the ring light anyway be a long shot! Additional Accessory Recommendations: I'd probably recommend that you get a regular softbox off of amazon. Make sure they are compatible with Mini Bowens type adapters and is for 40w cob lights. I'm planning on getting this one soon https://amzn.to/3Sjd7NT as Best Buy doesn't really sell these types of softboxes. THe one I posted is only about $40. I also did a review of this light over on Youtube if you want to see the video. https://youtu.be/mrcn4BTbk-w Honestly for the price it's great. Issues I ran across: Turning it on takes a moment or two. I find myself turning it on and turning the dial to turn it up only to have it start over a couple times. I guess it needs to warm up or something. I think the only complaint that I have is that it doesn't have a remote control. I feel for the price they could've put a cheap little remote control in there to enhance the value. Battery: The battery life is also decent and rechargeable. If it is fully dead it could take an hour or more to charge up fully. Out of the box I'd say plug it in an let it charge until fully charged. Depending on your brightness and settings you can get anywhere from about 2 hours to 5 hours. It is an internal battery so if you want to change the battery as it won't hold a charge anymore you will have to take the whole thing apart...if it can be changed. Sound/Noise: These types of lights typically have a sound to them. I honestly did not see this as an issue as I have not been able to hear this at all unless I put my ear up to the light. It is not an obnoxious sound that will come up on your audio equipment and should not even be a factor in buying it thankfully. Final Thoughts: If you are using it in a small bedroom you could use it at the lowest setting and it will brighten up the room quite a bit. Whether this is for a primary light or a filler light you definitely should check it out as there aren't many cob lights you can get in local stores. It has even gone on sale a couple of times already for $59.99 but even at $79.99 it's a great price :). Enjoy!

[Employee of bestbuy] FAR exceeded my expectations- It's a 40w COB that can run on internal battery or USBC power, it's bicolor, relatively light-weight, has built-in lighting effects, dims smoothly, seems to be color accurate, comes with a dome and reflector...and cost 80 bucks...? I've bought similar lights that cost twice as much as this, and those didn't have an internal battery. REEAALLY impressed given the price, and I'm definitely gonna use this all the time. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna buy five.

For the Price, WOW! This light is bright and last long. I've purchased other lights that are more boxy but they don't compare. I wish I would have known about these prior to my other purchases. Could've saved myself a lot of headaches and money!

I purchased 2 of these lights 2 months ago. Since then I have returned 3 of them in exchange for a new one since they all stopped working. First time I got a replacement that one has worked amazing and for some reason is different than the other ones I have had. The screen is better and light is even brighter. Then the other same 4 lights I had either never turned on or stopped turning on and could never charge after a week or two. Seems to be some quality control issues and has been extremely inconvenient. The 1 of 5 that I have that works is great, however, the other 4 have been unusable.
