The light works OK, the clip is a bit fiddly, but does the job
It reflects if the user is wearing glasses, which I doubt can be avoided, but it is noticeable (maybe I can change the orientation and reduce it’s intrusiveness)
The tripod seems fine – other have said it’s flimsy, but the light is, er, very light, so it’s OK
The power has to be plugged in to a suitable USB socket – my Surface Pro power module wouldn’t work, but the integral USB socket did. Maybe a voltage rating thing
The instructions refer to a ‘charger’ which implies its’ rechargeable – it isn’t, as far as I can see; it needs a power supply
The ATUMTEK Ring Light with Clip & Tripod arrived in a retail box inside the cardboard outer. Inside the box was the ring light, a mini tripod, a clip that the light slots into, and an instruction manual.
In use I have only used it with the tripod as I found the clip a little strong and I would worry about it damaging my laptop screen if clipped on to it. The tripod works well, and the cable is a long enough length (approximately 1m with a USB A connector) that it allows you to position the light pretty much where you want it. The light has three colour temperatures and the +/- on the controller also allows you to increase or decrease the brightness of of the light. Overall, this is a good light, which works really well in providing additional light when I am on a Teams call. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars in the strength of the clip which I feel is too much for a laptop screen.
it’s great if you’re in a low-light room to have a light like this. I’ve started doing a lot of vlogging for social media. The problem with trying to do this consecutively is I travel a lot for work. This light is powerful and very easy to travel with. The light is super simple to set up on a desk with the tripod attachment or to clip onto your monitor!
the light quality when video calling is also nice and soft. There’s also a nice catch light you can see in your eyes whilst using the light.
If you do a lot of vlogging or video calls, this will be very useful to you.
The ATUMTEK Ring Light is a game-changer for video conferencing and live streaming. The 5-inch size is ideal for clipping onto your laptop or monitor without taking up much space. With 3 color temperatures and 10 brightness levels, you can easily adjust the lighting to suit your needs, whether for remote work, Zoom calls, or streaming. The included tripod adds stability and flexibility for optimal positioning. If you’re looking to enhance your virtual presence with professional lighting, this ring light delivers excellent results.
This ring light is powered via standard USB, with the cable being very long. The settings are changed using a set of buttons on a controller attached to the power cable. With the controller, you can change the light’s warmness/coolness and brightness.
The light comes with two attachments: one that clips onto services, and a tripod. The clip slides into the back of the ring light (took me a second to figure out where, haha), and the tripod attaches at the bottom much like any other tripod. The tripod allows you to adjust the direction of the light.
The clip attachment is very tight and doesn’t open up too far, so you may be limited as to where/what the light can be clipped to. The tripod’s feet each have a rubber cushion on the end, preventing it from sliding around.
No complaints, seems just fine to me.
I use this ring light for zoom meetings, although it could be used for video recordings etc. The clip provided fits onto the webcam popup on my display monitor (see photo), and it makes my image on zoom much clearer. But note, depending on the width of your monitor (or laptop/tablet display), the clip may not extend open enough to clip onto your monitor’s top side — my monitor’s width is 3cm and the clip will not open enough to attach directly onto it.
The ring light also comes with a tripod stand (see photo) which allows full adjustment of the light both vertically and horizontally.
The power cable is approximately 184cm in length and it has a USB Type A male connector. Integrated into the power cable is a slim control unit with the usual on/off and brightness functions. The light can be set to a pure white light or to two degrees of warm light. All three of these options offer adjustable brightness settings.
I am completely happy with my order.
I got this ring light to enhance the quality of my video calls on my laptop as the size of this light is perfect for my desk or to use around my laptop. Thanks to its clip-on design, it can be easily attached to the laptio but at the same time, it also coems with a tiny tripod which let me use it on my desk as a standalone device.
The 10-level brightness adjustment and 3-colour temperature options are useful. Whether I need a warm, cosy light for late-night meetings or a bright white light for recording videos, this ring light has me covered. The soft lighting does a good job of minimising shadows. The spring clamp is stable and easy to use, fitting snugly on my laptop and desktop monitor. The included tripod stand is a nice touch, offering a 360-degree adjustable angle, which I found particularly useful. One of the most convenient features is the USB-powered design. I can plug it directly into my laptop or use a power bank if I’m away from my desk. The 1.45m power cord gives me enough flexibility to position the light exactly where I need it, and at only 130g, the light is lightweight and portable.
The clip could be harsh on the laptop as my laptop has a very thin profile screen and is kind of delicate, so whenever I mount this tight clip on it, it feels concerning. The power on button is a bit stiff as sometimes I have to have a long press but some other time, it just switches on with one press. While the tripod stand is functional, it’s somewhat lightweight and can tip over if not balanced correctly. Lastly, the light diameter of 5 inches is adequate for close-up work but might be too small if you’re looking for broader lighting coverage.
Overall, it excels in providing adjustable, soft lighting for video calls and content creation, and its portability is a major plus for anyone who’s on the go.
A ring light from Atumtek.
In the box – the ring light , a spring clip ,a tripod stand and an instruction leaflet .
Pleasantly surprised at the sturdiness of this , the tripod sits firm ,the light screws on and is secured in place, the clip is strong .
Theres a long cable with control switches a good metre from the light so you can control all aspects of the light from a distance.
Multi levels of brightness , with options of natural , warm or white light . Swivel through 360 degrees and angle from side to side .
I ordered this light to take pictures of baking and craft items and it’s been a revelation.
I’m sure there are more technical expensive products out there , but simple as it is ,it’s made a huge difference to the quality and clarity of my photos .
Shadows are reduced, clear more true to life colours and a professional finish .
Perfect for video calls ,zoom meetings etc too .. with better direct and flattering lighting.
It uses little power and can be plugged in laptop or phone but it’s easier to have a power bank handy.
Minor niggles ,the clip is very strong and I’m not comfortable with it on the laptop despite the silicone padding .
Theres limited low angled lighting with the tripod as it gets top heavy and will tip but it does cover most things you need.
It’s worth taking a little time to get used to the controls and the levels and kind of light that gives you the results you need.
Everyone should have one of these ring lights and this is a good value one ,I wish I’d got one before
