Depends on your use. The 300 has the added color, which is nice if you want to throw up some color in the background. However, the 200 is light weight, smaller and portable. The 300 has a few more bells and whistles. Really it comes down to budget and what you need.
@@Ranger7Studios I may never need RGB, I just need as much power as it’s possible. From the stats I’ve read there’s no much difference between those two and for that reason I’m also considering the LS300
I only own one. However, if you wanted to you could use two. One as a background light and one as a key. Really depends on your budget and they types of jobs.
I have the 150c but I find the RGB performance just isn’t bright enough. Considering grabbing one of these. Thanks for the review!
May I ask what is the Junior Pin adapter you have used to attach your light to your ifootage stand called please?
Manfrotto Mounting Adapter, 3/8" Female Thread to 5/8" Male Stud Adapter, 50.8mm Long. (#186)

Will everything out the box work outdoors with no outlets? Or do I have to purchase a battery system?
You'll have to buy a battery system or purchase the Aputure 2-Bay Battery Power Station to power it off v-mount batteries.
No mention of brightness?
Would you get this one or the 200X s? I'm upgrading the 100D and I'm pretty undecided.

Just got this one and the fan has a clicking sound. Is that the sound when you mentioned that "the fan is audible"? Thanks in advance
No. Sounds like there might be something wrong with you light. I would either exchange it or contact Aputure/amaran.
How long can this light be on at maximum power without overheating?
It doesn’t over heat. I’ve used it for several hours and it has not failed.
It has a fan that kicks in to keep it cool.
For actually shooting a short film or commercial is it worth buying 2 or do you find yourself only using 1?
I only own one. However, if you wanted to you could use two. One as a background light and one as a key. Really depends on your budget and they types of jobs.
Another pro is the price and weight, so light and versatile
