I have reviewed quite a few 10-inch ring light kits before and they are all very similar. As regards the ring light itself, so is this one - it's fairly lightweight and offers warm, medium, and cool white with 10 levels of brightness all configured using the same in-line control box I have seen many times before. What makes this one stand out is that it comes with a fully adjustable metal table clamp stand which makes it perfect for close-up photography or for the make up table with no clumsy tripod to get in the way.

In the well made and protected box, you receive the Ring Light, Stand Arm, Phone Holder, ¼" screw Ball & Socket Head, Allen Key, 2 Velcro Straps (one prefitted) and a well written and easy to read User Guide. Build quality all seems fine - the ring light is rather lightweight but seems well made enough and the stand is made from heavy-duty aluminium alloy.

The ring light has a cold shoe mount in the centre, a good and long 185cm cable with a standard USB-A power plug on the end and an in-line control box of the sort widely used in lights of this type. The control box having buttons for brightness Up and Down (10 steps), colour temperature (2700K warm, 5500K normal and 6500K cool) and On/Off. The ring light is large enough to allow the mounting of a standard phone or GoPro style camera to the cold shoe mount and the ball and socket and phone mounts are included for this purpose.

The 500 lumens ring light is similar to many others I have used but the main selling point for this kit must be the inclusion of an adjustable heavy duty table clamp mount. The padded aluminium alloy clamp attaches to a table or similar surface up to 6cm deep with the three section stand screwing firmly to it and revolving 360° around its axis. The 21" arm has three folding joints, which can be locked in place using the suppling allen key, and a 360° rotating mount for the ring light.

This lamp would be well suited for studio photographic work, for make up artists or for selfie photos wirh the main selling point being the table top clamp freeing the user from an always in the way tripod.

If you need a bright and versatile tabletop ring light, then all you are going to need is included here, not bad for just under 35 dollars.
