SmallRig's RM 25C mini LED Video Light looks to deliver a useful  balance of size, power, and versatility.

Measuring just 113 x 74 x 29mm (4.4 x 2.9 x 1.1 inches) and weighing 255g (9 oz), despite its small footprint SmallRig's RM 25C mini LED Video Light produces a decent 768 Lux at one metre (3.3′, and that's at 5600K) from its 25W output.

It also provides full RGB+CCT functionality, has a CRI of 96 and TLCI of 99, and a bi-colour temperature range from 2500K to 10,000K, offering users access to over 36,000 colours, along with 14 built-in lighting effects. Power is provided by a 3100mAh lithium battery, capable of delivering up to 50 minutes of operation at full brightness. A rapid-charging feature allows the battery to reach 80% capacity in just 45 minutes, while it also supports pass-through charging, allowing it to be used continuously while connected to external power.
