Elgato Key Light Air - Professional 1400 lumens Desk Light for Streaming, Broadcasting, Home Office and Video Conferencing, Temperature and Brightness app-adjustable on Mac, PC, iOS, Android

I've been a part time gaming streamer for a year now. I bought the Key Light Air to replace a lower end light by Neewer that I had been using with a soft box to provide some real diffusion to the light because the combination was big and bulky and was just in the way all the time. I use two key lights, one high on the right, and the other low on the left to light both myself and my green screen when I stream. This replaced the left light. Here's what I found: 1) It's TINY. I expected something about the size of my previous light without the shutters and soft box. 2) The edge lighting on the Key Light Air and the multi layer panel provide a consistent, diffused, and bright light that seems to come from everywhere. The diffusion is amazing and far better than a soft box. 3) It's bright. My previous light had 200SMD LEDs and I ran the Key Light Air at the same percentage of brightness. 4) App adjustability was very handy . Instead of "Putting up with it" when my ambient lighting or the shirt I was wearing caused weird lighting issues, I can quickly adjust the light while still watching the camera. 5) Stream Deck compatibility for turning the light on/off, changing brightness and warmth means I can sit straight while making the adjustments, so I don't have to keep moving around because of changes in shadowing. This also makes adjusting it very fast. 6) The weighted desk stand is sturdy, functional, and low. I thought I might have to use the old base I had bought to bring the light down, but it works great. 7) You might as well replace all of your lights with this because you'll end up wishing you bought more at the same time. I get annoyed now having to stand up to work with the old light. While I wasn't excited about spending so much for another light when mine work, I'm very happy with the purchase and plan to buy a second one. I know Elgato isn't the cheapest option out there, but I've been very happy with the quality of their items I've purchased and the value they provide. After buying the other lights, soft boxes, and another stand, I only saved a few dollars over buying the Elgato Key Light Airs up front. I should have spent the additional money up front.

All right here's the thing about this light it does what it says as advertised, Keep in mind give a 5 star review, So I'm just mentioning something that gay didn't mention, When you turn the light on it turns on all the way and then shuts off and then slowly turns back on to full brightness I don't know why it does this but I have two of them and they both do the same thing. I'm mentioning this because they didn't and your opinion is broken when you first get it.

This light is meant to allow you to replace the big, bulky softbox lights. It's super convenient and doesn't take a lot of real estate. Not to mention, how much of an eyesore those box lights are. I got the Key light and the smaller standing version for my office. My wife is a marriage coach and her office has several video lights, including one huge box light. When she saw my setup, she asked me to get her one as well so we can toss the box light. The quality of this light is very high. It's got weight and feels like it will last. Doesn't look cheap either (like a lot of lighting). The desktop app makes it so easy to turn on the light (or group of lights) with one click. It remembers your color and intensity settings as well. You can adjust right from your desktop with sliders for both color and brightness. I hope this review helps the company and you to make up your mind. If you get this key light, I think you will be impressed. See ya! - B

These work really well. I just wish the app was a little better. You can get by with the app but sometimes it would freak out and do weird things. There might have been an update since I bought them, which I didn't do, so maybe they work better than my experience.

Pros: Bright LED Wireless Sturdy build quality App control Adjustable temp Lock multiple units to the same settings or adjust individually using the app. Cons: I find the transition between certain lighting temps to be a bit abrupt. Have had a few random disconnects from one of the two units I purchased. Lack of physical controls - makes these lights useless without the app and WiFi. Footprint of the base is large. Price - there are more competitively priced options. TLDR: Great lights with a nice suite of features. Buy them if they fit into your budget and are looking for these features from a reputable brand.

My Zoom calls used to be so poorly lit when working from home. Given that I'm in a room that was supposed to be a bedroom that I converted to an office, it has the normal overhead ceiling fan kind of light fixture. That light would blow me out on calls and have lighting in all the wrong places. My face would be too dark, or the sun would come through the window and create all kinds of other issues. I bought two Elgato Key Light Airs and they've been amazing! Easy to put together right of the box. They come with stands that, in the lowest position, can be perfectly positioned on my desk. They can be controlled manually or from software you can download to your computer. You can also control them from the Elgato Control Center app you can get from the Apple or Google app store. I highly recommend the app. In order to control the light(s) this way, you need to pair them with your wifi network which was extremely easy. For controls you have complete control over the warmth and brightness of the lights. Since I have two lights, I chose to link them together and they when I move either slider via the ap, both lights adjust at the same time. I also give Elgato bonus points for the packaging and package design. It is in a very sturdy box so there's no risk of damage in transit and the light and its components are individually wrapped inside. Definitely a first class experience worthy of an unboxing video, but that's not my thing. :)

Old/used product.

Bardzo dobre światła

Now before I get started, this isn't a bad point on the product but rather a problem with the nature of the product. Because this is a wi-fi enabled light it needs to connect to your wi-fi to work and be controlled with no way of externally controlling it. This is fine for 99% of use cases at home which is why I still give the product 5 stars. But on a corporate network at the office you may need to speak to the IT team to allow the light onto the network and have it on the same network as your phone or laptop which may be difficult. The set up process did not work whatsoever on my laptop so I had to use my iPhone which surprisingly had a built in set-up process in the default settings app, this worked a dream and suddenly appeared on my laptop with the ability to control it using the app, windows tray and streamdeck. The light is so well made, looks amazing, provides a TON of light for video calls and tutorials. I've not found the need for 2 because 1 is enough, it helps provide background separation to key the background out hence the name "Key" light but it's not magic, you still need a good clear background for best results or be far enough away that your camera can bokeh it out and give you that clear seperation. I highly rate this light and will be using it for video calls, recordings and studio style drop down videos using my DSLR.

u can adjust the temperature of this light

This is a great quality light - sturdy and easy to put together. It connected easily to my wifi and I was downloading the app in no time. I love that I can control the tint and tone as well as brightness. I will get perfect light no matter what. At this price point it's definitely an investment, but it's worth it.
