The 18″ Bi-Color LED Ring Light from Angler employs 240 SMD LEDs to cast a soft, near-shadowless quality that’s very flattering to skin tones and is great for vlogging, selfies, makeup, portraiture, and more. The fixture also reflects interesting circular catchlights in your subject’s eyes which is the signature of its form factor. Color temperature is variable from 3200 to 5600K, allowing the output to blend with any type of ambient light, match other fixtures, or spark creative expression. The ring light’s very high CRI and TLCI ratings of 98+ assure accuracy in color rendering. Light intensity is variable too, from 0 to 100% in 1% increments so you can dial up the ideal brightness for your project.

The inclusion of a dual-sided mirror is Angler’s way of insuring a fun, easy user experience when posing or shooting. One side has normal reflective qualities while the other offers a magnified view for detailed work on makeup or hair styling. Angler has also got you covered for shooting options with the provided Mini Ball Head for small cameras as well as a Smartphone Bracket that keeps the devices properly aimed through the central opening of the light.

Yet another indication of design versatility is the fixture’s power options. The included multi-voltage AC adapter makes the ring light a candidate for worldwide use, but the light also has two slots for separately-purchased NP-F-type batteries for situations where an AC outlet is unavailable, which will give you about 2.5 hours of run time away from a wall socket. Additionally, Angler includes a travel case for storage and transport.
