Pros: Super bright 100 watt, barn doors for control, battery pack seems more than adequate. Low cost compared to equivalent products.

Cons: Gets Really hot fast; not much bulb protection.

Best Uses: A great Spot light for portraits (keep it away from the fabrics though)

Describe Yourself: Professional Videographer

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The price was far cheaper than anything else in its range, so the drawbacks are lessened by the minimized damage to my pocketbook.

The light itself performs like a champ. The rear portion stays cool to the touch with reasonable usage. It does tend to heat up really quickly (100 watt halogen, duh) and the barn doors become too hot to touch pretty quick, so adjust them when its cool! There is also no glass or other protection for the bulb, which on the one hand lets it breathe and cool quicker, but on the other leaves it open to the elements.

This ALZO camcorder light & battery are a great find. You get over an hour of very strong light with this. I needed a high wattage light with my film cameras and this did the trick. The battery is very basic...almost like a car battery, but it works flawlessly. I wish there was some sort of meter to tell how much battery life was left. Besides that, you get a lot for your money compared to other very expensive alternatives.
