In this video I review and compare 13 different bi-color LED pocket lights.

These lights range from just $26 on the budget end, to over $250 for full kits on the premium end.

I will talk about the most important pros and cons of each light, and give awards for things like the brightest LED pocket light, the best super budget LED pocket light, the best overall value, and more to help you decide which lights might be a good fit for you.

The lights included in this review are the Aputure Amaran F7, Lupo Smartpanel Dual Color, Intellytech Pocket LiteCloth, Litra LitraPro, Genaray Powerbank 64, Genaray Powerbank 96, LumeCube Panel Go, LumeCube Panel Mini, Iwata Genius Light GL-01, Vijim VL81, Vijim VL120, Vijim VL-1, and Sandmarc Prolight Bi-Color.
