For the price, how can you beat it. Sometimes you need to put two next to each other to make a key light, but I am very happy with my purchase.

The lights are very good for their size compared to other LED panels, love that, one con I found is that the NPF adaptor with V mount is kind of loose so it gets tricky to use the panels with batteries. About the packing, one of the Barn doors didn't come with the right screws so instead of having 4 regular screws and 4 spline screws, it came with 8 spline screws so I haven't been able to attach the third barn door in my panel. I would recommend this lights for anyone planning on having light quality for indoor interviews with a three point triangle or as I prefer to do mine: one as a kick light and the other two lights with a translucent in front to soft the strong shadows.
