- DIGITEK (DRL-14) Professional Ring Light with USB Support - Dual Temperature Lights, USB Cable & AC Adapter Included - Ideal for Photography & Videography, YouTube (Without Stand)

Good quality

This 5 start is specifically for the Service and Customer support team of DIGITEK. The product was received on time but when we opened the packet the light was not turning ON. We requested a replacement but it was not applicable for this item. Hence we initiated service call on DIGITEK mail id and got instant response from the team. We sent them the item to their Delhi address (yes, we paid for the courier) and they do the repair work and send back the light (yes, they paid the courier charges). The whole process was done so fast and they ware so responsive on mail. At the end, the light is working and we are happy with the DIGITEK.

The ring light works well and delivers consistent brightness with good control over color temperature and intensity. It is suitable for content creation, video calls, and photography, and overall performance meets expectations. However, the carry bag quality is quite poor. The zip failed very quickly, which is disappointing for a product meant to be portable. The bag does not match the quality of the light itself. Overall, the ring light is good, but the accessories, especially the bag, need improvement.

Pros ​High LED Count: The ring light features 480 individual LED bulbs, providing excellent coverage. ​Adjustable Brightness: The brightness is dimmable from 0% to 100%. (Note: At 0%, the light does not turn off completely; a faint glow remains.) ​Variable Color Temperature: You can easily adjust the color temperature to suit different lighting needs. ​High Intensity: The ring light is exceptionally bright, making it ideal for high-quality content. ​Cons ​Warning: Issues with Seller and Replacement Policy The seller appears to be repeatedly shipping damaged or defective units. Furthermore, they seem to be exploiting Amazon’s "Service Center Replacement" policy. This means if you receive a faulty product, you cannot simply return it through Amazon; you are forced to visit a physical service center for a replacement. ​My Experience ​I was initially thrilled to order this product, as owning an 18-inch ring light has been a dream of mine for years. However, my experience was quite frustrating: ​First Attempt: Upon unboxing, everything looked perfect. However, once I plugged it in, the light failed to turn on entirely. I reached out to Amazon Customer Support, and the representative was incredibly helpful and friendly. They eventually facilitated a replacement for me. ​Second Attempt: When the replacement arrived, I noticed the accessories were sealed in plastic—something that wasn't the case with the first unit. This confirmed that the first light I received was likely used and defective. ​While the second light powered on and all the dials and the remote worked, I discovered two dead LEDs (black spots) in the ring. Initially, I thought two missing bulbs out of 480 wouldn't matter. However, after researching the issue, I realized that these electrical faults can spread over time. Since I paid full price, I decided not to compromise and have initiated another return through customer support.

Worth for the money

1st, it doesn't come with a stand so make sure you get a tripod or any sort of that to attach this. But the thing is, to get a tripod for only ring light is hard. So you better buy this with tripod if you are starting off with this. 2nd, it is not that light. The tripod has to be sturdy. Atleast upto 5kg of capacity minimum. Because if you want this to go higher then cheap tripod will break. 3rd, brightness is average. Not as bright as other pro photography lights. Since it is dimmable there should not be any problem with dimming it. 4th, the remote. Cheap quality, no density, not gonna be durable if someone sits on it accidentally or any of that sort. 5th, again the remote. If you adjust the knobs on the ringlight to maximum, the remote gets confused. I turn it off from the remote and the light turns on automatically. I put it to max or minimum brightness from remote, the light sets automatically to maximum regardless of what I press. Same goes for the temperature. So if you wanna control this from remote, set the knobs to 50% (both the knobs) then it will work normally. 6th, the auxillary button in the remote is useless. And i dont know why they put 4 buttons just for brightness which function the same. 7th, the installation mechanism is not that great. You have to screw it to a metal rod to fix it which damages the metal rod. Screwing method would have been nice. Overall, average experience. Not good and not bad.
