GC30 LED lamp: battery powered 2700-6500K
A portable and remote controllable LED lamp
Looking at the GC30 battery powered [71Wh] portable LED light for my industrial and product photography.
Variable brightness and colour temperature.
Device can be used as a USB C power bank.
It takes Bowens fit accessories, via three extending arms, which rotate outwards to take soft boxes and the like.
Here it is attached to a softbox. One of the three lugs on the outside of the softbox ring can just be seen [arrowed] next to the locking screw [seen above]. which is flipped into place.
For the specs of the Inkee ‘Gold Crow’ lamp, see https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0C9QMD4GR?ref=myi_title_dp
For GC30 LED lamp battery capacity/specs, see the technical details on the side of the device. You can also see one of the four tripod screw attachment points [1/4″].
Note how the USB power specs relate to power input or output as a ‘power bank’.
There is a higher powered US version [GC60] with twice the battery capacity. https://amz.run/6qoG
For the control software, search for ‘GCSync’ – here it is on my iPhone
GC30 LED lamp first use
Do note in the instruction leaflet where it suggests running the battery flat and then re-charging, when you first get the device. This will improve the accuracy of the displayed power capacity.
