The idea to use as a headlamp is great! Thank you

[@TheOneCanoe]

Yes, I always take this along with me when I'm backpacking.

[@dugard007]

Excellent video very clear easy to follow much appreciated

[@TheOneCanoe]

Hey Craig, thanks for the positive feedback.

[@MRCRUZER19]

Thanks for the uses.

[@TheOneCanoe]

You’re welcome

[@user-wq2fq7cc6p]

Thank you for the review. All I needed to know, nothing extra.

[@TheOneCanoe]

Thanks for watching.

[@dancolombo]

Hi, thanks for the video, is it possible to charge it when the module is lighting ? it's for live streaming use, thanks

[@MollyFitzBrown]

Thanks for the review, I think I want one :)

[@cruzinthruspace]

Can this be mounted onto any rig with a cold shoe or does it have to be a GoPro specific accessory?
I have a small rig and it's not clicking onto the cold shoe properly It's loose and it will come off easily

[@TheOneCanoe]

It's supposed to be a 'standard' cold shoe mount. It works fine on my Canon DSLR and my Sony mirrorless camera, but it is loose when I mount it to my Canon Camcorder. so I guess it just depends on the shoe mount you are using. If it is loose, a bit of masking tape on the bottom to take up the slack works.

thank you

[@rayharrison1952]

Is this compatible with Hero 12 ?

[@TheOneCanoe]

Yes, you attach it to the Hero 12 using the Media Mod case.

[@richardrosemusic]

can you use this light whilst charging? For use at at home as a webcam

[@TheOneCanoe]

Yes, this light will work while charging.

[@DJMeku]

how does it connect, via bluetooth?

[@TheOneCanoe]

Connect? No connection here, it’s just a light. Just push the power button.

[@DJMeku]

@@TheOneCanoe Thanks for the quick reply - so how will it sync to the GoPro when taking a flash photo? (I never used a GoPro before, sorry for too many questions)

[@TheOneCanoe]

@@DJMeku Does not 'sync' because it is not a flash. It is a video light that stays illuminated for as long as it is turned on so will add light to both videos and still photos.

[@robyngibson6844]

Which of the go pros is this compatible with please?

[@TheOneCanoe]

This light can be used on ANY camera that has a shoe mount. For GoPro cameras you’ll need a Media Mod case that has the built in shoe. They make Media Mod cases for GoPro Hero 8, 9, 10, and 11.

[@robyngibson6844]

@@TheOneCanoe I have bought one from Amazon and hoping it fits onto the 11!!! Thank you. I went ahead and got the light too hopefully they all go together 🤣🤣 thank you for replying

[@chriscruz8269]

nice review

[@zazzle777i]

I put it on backwards on accident and I can't get it off

[@tpamelahernandeztorres7469]

Me too 😢 I can’t get it off

[@kenanhussiani9160]

Did you ever figure out how to take it off??

[@BeBased92]

Do you think it’s worth it 3 months later ?

[@TheOneCanoe]

Yes I do. You can buy cheaper, brighter lights but they tend to be bigger. I really love the compact size of this unit. It is the perfect 'fill light' and takes up hardly any space in my kit when I'm hitting the trails on a backpacking journey.

[@h4swell]

Pretty weak... 200LM is not enough

[@TheOneCanoe]

Ya, I agree it is kinda weak, but don’t think of it as a ‘floodlight’, think of it as a ‘fill light’
