these are actually really great for me as a tattoo artist who works from both home and the shop as it fits right into my bag and goes everywhere with me - to the people complaining sometimes I wonder if in ten years any of you will actually even want to draw or you would be happy to describe something and have the AI draw it for you..I don't know that the one I have is this particular brand but I need a new one anyway so I will check it out and see the price point and go from there..
+Marco M. here is a Q&A for your reference: Question: Has anyone used this for watercolor paper? Answer: I've used it with Arches 140# HP and it works pretty well.

By Charles L. on November 1, 2014 I have successfully traced on 140 lb watercolor paper. Don't know if it would work on thicker weights, but the light is quite bright, so it may.

+Jeffrey Burns please check the model No on the back of light box. In this video, the model name is A4, it it not the rechargeable light box. It power on via power adapter. You do not need to charge it. If the model name is LB4, it is rechargeable light box. you can power on via power adapter as well as A4, and you also can charge it before use, then use rechargeable method.
Note: These drawback problems 1st Even after charging, it has to be plugged into computer to work as it can not be used independently - 2nd There are no register clips or anything to hold the drawing so useless for animation 3rd Even plugged into computer you can not use it for drawing into a computer paint program
Graham Commander hello Graham, thanks for your comment. this video to show normal A4 light box, which can be charged. I think maybe you mean light box LB4. if it is LB4, please kindly see the answer as follow: 1st, if you want to use battery model, you need to push the button to 'battery', nor you still need to connect the wire. 2nd, clips are not standard accessory for now, but we will plan to add it in, you will be happy with this news. 3rd, it is just a light box to trace, tattoo, copy picture, it can't be use it for drawing into a computer
It's aL4S model and the button on the top only allows "On" and brighter or dimmer It's my own fault for not checking until I bought it and thenfound out it was Only a lightbox
It is NOT A DRAWING BOARD as it STATES in DESCRIPTION it is a LIGHT BOX !!! I HAVE ONE & IT IS PERFECT TO USE INSTEAD Of TRACING PAPER. I have a drawing Tablet and this is completely different to a LIGHT BOX. Cannot understand why so many are confusing this LIGHT BOX' with a DRAWING TABLET when there is NO mention OF 'DRAWING' it says 'LIGHT'.

Huion CN Lightbox vs drawing tablet. :) This looks perfect for what I need.
It's aL4S model and the button on the top only allows "On" and brighter or dimmer
It's my own fault for not checking until I bought it and thenfound out it was Only a lightbox
Graham Commander sorry about that. L4S is a light box with USB cable.

Quite unnecessarily ... just for tracing much of anything ....
Totally bulshit!! Go buy some stencil copier and case closed.. That's all what you need bro!!
