ULANZI VL49 Mini LED Video Light White 2000mAh 49 LED CRI 95+

Compact on-camera light

The ULANZI VL49 is a pocket-sized LED panel with 49 beads that delivers 5500K colour temperature and CRI 95+ output for vloggers and photographers who need accurate colour straight from the camera. It weighs 138 grams and measures 3 x 2.4 x .9 inches, so it slips into a jacket pocket or small rig bag. The built-in 2000mAh lithium cell charges in 2 hours via the Type-C port and runs up to 120 minutes at full power or 300 minutes at the lowest setting. Five brightness steps let you match ambient light without adding gels.

Three cold-shoe mounts

A single cold shoe on top and two on the sides allow the light to sit on a camera hot shoe, a cage or a mini tripod while leaving room to stack additional VL49 units for wider coverage. The Type-C socket accepts any standard USB-C cable or power bank, so you can recharge between takes without hunting for a proprietary adapter. Soft diffusion is built into the panel surface, producing even illumination without a separate modifier. The white chassis stays neutral under mixed lighting and resists fingerprint smudges during handheld use.

Ready-to-shoot kit

In the box you receive the light, a USB-C charging cable and a cold-shoe adapter that secures the panel to any standard hot shoe or 1/4-20 accessory. No driver installation or app pairing is required — power on, select brightness and start recording. The 2000mAh battery eliminates disposable cells and the 2-hour recharge cycle fits a typical lunch break, keeping downtime short for solo creators. Multi-light stacking via the side shoes scales output for interview setups without extra stands.
