AMARAN 100D - 100w Daylight Balanced LEDGame ChangerThe Amaran 100d is a daylight point-source LED fixture with stunning brightness and wireless Bluetooth app control. Amaran provides the ultimate lights for content creators, interviews, portrait photography and video production.Ultrabright OutputWhen it comes to lighting, output is like horsepower. Using cutting-edge LED technology, the Amaran 100d uses its 100W COB LED output to create an equivalent to a 750w tungsten light. It also features 0% to 100% dimming control to ensure that you can always find the right level of illumination for your scene. Meet the brightest (and darkest) light in your kit.Beautiful Color FidelityMany do not realize that light affects the very colors that we see. Bad light can bring nasty green or magenta hues that make your subject look sick. On the flip side, great lighting has the power to bring out the most brilliant colors found in nature. Scoring a 95+ (out of 100) on the Television Lighting Consistency Index, the Amaran light series guarantees that you see beautiful colors on every shoot.All-in-One BuildSpeed and portability matter. Featuring all-in-one housing, the Amaran 100d is a fully integrated fixture making it one of our easiest studio lights to adjust and transport. The total weight of the kit is only 3.4 kilograms (7.6lbs) and the built-in fan ensures that the LED remains cool no matter how long your shoot goes on for.Universal Accessory MountThe Amaran 100d uses a Bowens Mount meaning that it can be transformed to take on the quality of almost any light. Whether you need soft light, hard light or even a spotlight, the accessory mounting system of the Amaran 100d means that it is compatible with almost all Aputure lighting modifiers like the Light Dome, Fresnel or Lantern. In addition to the Bowens Mount, the Amaran 100d also has an umbrella holder for even faster speed and softness.Built-in EffectsThe Amaran 100d also launches with 8 built-in lighting FX, such as, "Paparazzi," "Fireworks," "Lightning," "Faulty Bulb," "TV," "Breath," "Flash," and "Explosion," opening up new possibilities for precise lighting control.SIDUS Link CompatibilityLighting should be fun. With the integration of Sidus Mesh, the Amaran 100d gives you professional lighting control with a single app. Mesh technology means that every light in the Aputure and Amaran series will automatically connect to each other and expand the range of your network. With the Sidus Link App, you can control up to 100 lights from your smartphone or tablet. Adjust each light to perfection by adjusting aspects like brightness, color temperature, effects, and even programming effects between multiple fixtures.

A wildly affordable mono-light, flexible with a bowens mount and bright enough for most situations. Trying to find something like this 10 years ago was impossible. I'm stoked that filmmaking tools are becoming cheaper, more accessible, and higher quality.

Best Affordable Monolight

Feels very sturdy and high quality. I do not have equipment to measure the color accuracy or brightness but works perfectly for my usecase.

Great light For the price

Very good product and pack! Highly recommend it

Amazing light and stand!

Works great with the Sidus app

It?s exactly what I expected based on the specs and the build quality is fantastic.  Not sure why they don?t provide a nylon case for the EPS cradle, that would be the chef?s kiss.

Awesome kit!

Bright

Amazing! This thing is bright and light as a feather!

Portable and Powerful!

It is really good and valuable but I need a brighter than this one.

Great

This light is very amazing for the price point, bright and color accurate.

Super nice Light, very implressed

I just received this and set it up so these are my initial impressions:
- very solid feeling hardware, good quality mount and bowens mount attachment
- light works very well, nice and bright, lots of options for adjusting the intensity, color temp, dimming curve,... Probably more options than I will use
- I'd ding it though because of the plastic quality. I have big meaty Shrek hands and have already broke a knob without using much force.

Still this light has been a dream so far!

Lighting is a dream but comes in a plastic build

Seems good.  I have the 120dii and 300dii.  Just needed this light for a permanent solution in my office. Definitely not a great build quality but it?s a great budget value for the cost.  Happy I bought it.

Budget Gem

Awesome light! I had this running for more than an hour at 80% brightness and was surprised at how quiet it was for those circumstances! High quality, I am very happy with this purchase!

Amazing light for content creation

Good Product

Fast shipping and it's nice item. Thank you!

This light may surprise you by it's light throw and quality. Being an Aputure budget brand, you can clearly tell the development went into the 'inners'. Be carefully with knobs, don't over tighten and you will be happy. 
Please remember there is no battery option as of now, so this is a studio or controlled environment light. Good luck, and happy shooting.

Great light, okay build

Great bang for the buck. No complaints. Added a Fresnel and barn doors to control the light. App is decent, though not exactly intuitive,  but it does connect every time and the lights are always synced perfectly.

Great budget lighting option

Started my Youtube channel & this light is perfect.

Amazing starter light

Great little light that is a lot brighter than I was expecting. Being able to control it through an app on my phone is a nice bonus.

Nice little light

Apure 100

For the price, you can't really beat it. You get the Aputure name, the app experience, and the output. It's also small and lightweight so you're not taking up much space in your room or studio. If this isn't something you are going to constantly travel with, this is a no-brainer.

Excellent Output for the Price

Great light, however barn doors come separate.

Good bright light!

Excellent light! I had a shoot around a campfire and the ability to dial in the color temperature made such a difference. Have had nothing but good experiences with it so far!

Color temperature made the difference for me

It's amazing the quality of equipment you can buy these days, at a fraction of the price they use to cost.
This is an extremely well made light. The quality is simply fantastic.

Great Light at a great price

I make YT vids and I've been using the 400 LED light panels for the longest time and switching to the 100D has been AMAZING. This is so much stronger because it can light up my whole room and the the daylight temperature works very well for my product & talking head shots. I wouldn't need the 100X unless I was color matching to other environments. Totally would recommend this to anyone with a budget over other products!

Best value for the $$

Color temperature range wide enough to match any light bulb and natural light. The fan is very quiet, but noticeably of a lesser quality than an Aputure 120d ii. Same can be said about the overall build quality. But that's why the Amaran 100x is priced where it is.

Superb Value

Great 100W light.  I was previously using low lux battery powered video lights.  Due to the limitations of them, I ended up always having to increase the ISO on cameras which adds some graininess.  With this light, I'm able to set my ISO to what it should be.  No more NR in post.  This light is small and reasonably light.   It has a bowens type mount which gives you many options for accessories.  I do intend to get one of the 200 series lights from Aputure to add into the setup, but with just the 100x, things are so much better.  It's color temperature range is 2700K to 6500K.  If you can afford higher lux lights, then this would be a great secondary light.  This light also opens up battery options since it only draws 100 watts.  So far, I'm very happy with the Amaran 100x and would recommend it to anyone needing to move from on-camera style of lights or anyone needing add in a secondary light.

Great low cost and low power light

Shockingly good light for the money! This little guy may seem like the little brother of the 120D, but it outperforms it on simplicity and output. No, the build isn't as solid as the 120D, the locking latch is hard plastic and is overall not as sturdy - but for a YouTuber or professional who isn't doing a ton of travel or takes care of their gear, there's no reason why you shouldn't buy 3 of these over one 120D. Hoping to buy more!

Shockingly Good!

This lights are awesome! Super lightweight and everything I need. Being color changeable is perfect for my use in video interviews. They also pair great with my 300d II.

Great lights!

Budget made right

I love the form factor! It’s brighter than the Godox 60 that I used to use. The app is really helpful. Just have to find a small case for travel and it’s an awesome light!
