Maybe you’re working from home and have multiple video meetings a day. Maybe you’re a teacher, trying to help their students understand the material. Maybe you’re simply keeping in contact with family and friends. I think we can all agree that we are using video conference calls more than we ever thought we would. However, the lighting for these calls can be less than ideal.
My work from home set up is perfect… except for the fact that my big balcony windows are right behind me, which means that my face is a dark blob for video calls. I went on a hunt to find the best cheap options for laptop, desktop, and cell phone lights. This option from Amazon is definitely my favorite.
ELGIANT 6.3″ Selfie Ring Light with Clamp Mount ($20.99)
What I like about this light is that it’s small enough for you to easily take it with you, if needed. It can be clipped onto the top of your computer or to the side of your desk. It’s 360 degrees rotatable and has 3 light colors and 11 brightness settings! So you can adjust according to your location, weather, and time. It’s also USB powered, so whether it’s a computer or a power bank, as long as you have the light with you, you know it’ll work.
My main qualifying aspect of the best light was price. And $20.99 is definitely worth it, especially with a light that you can use anywhere, anytime. Get it on Amazon now.
