GVM 800D RGB LED Studio Video Light Kit (3-Pack)
Review
Color and output modes: Each panel provides two primary output behaviors. One mode is a bi-color range spanning warm tungsten to cool daylight (3200K–5600K) with continuous stepless adjustment. The second mode unlocks full RGB control — adjust hue and individual red/green/blue saturation from 0% to 100% to craft any tint or mood quickly.
Controls and accessories: The fixtures include an LCD readout and multiple control schemes: front-panel dials for brightness and color tuning, physical mode buttons, and wireless control via the GVM mobile app (available on major app stores). Each light ships with removable diffuser panels, four-leaf barn doors, and tripod stands that extend for studio or on-location use. A 360-degree rotating U-bracket lets you tilt and lock the head in precise angles.
Construction and reliability: LEDs use high-grade chips with an expected lifespan above 100,000 hours, housed in an aerospace-grade aluminum alloy body that helps dissipate heat and keeps the units lightweight for transport. The yoke and mounting hardware are robust enough for repeated setups and breakdowns.
Power and mobility: The panels accept dual NP-F style batteries in the rear slots for untethered operation (batteries not included). They also run from AC power via the included brick for longer studio sessions. Note: batteries must be installed for battery mode to function and they do not charge through the DC input.
Practical uses and effects: Beyond standard interview and product lighting, the kit offers multiple preset scene effects — TV flicker, candle, police/lightbar, paparazzi, lightning, disco/party and bad bulb flicker — adjustable from 0–100% intensity. That makes them useful for streaming, filmmaking, product shots, background fills and creative accent lighting. The set is supplied as a three-light package to cover key, fill and hair/edge positions.
Pros
- Wide color palette with accurate bi-color and full RGB control
- Durable, lightweight aluminum housing and long-life LEDs
- Includes diffusers, barn doors, stands and wireless app control
Cons
- Batteries are not supplied and must be bought separately
- App interface can be awkward and takes time to learn
- Not the absolute brightest option compared to high-end fixtures
VerdictA versatile three-light kit that blends strong color accuracy and onboard RGB control with mobile app integration. Build quality feels premium thanks to an aluminum alloy shell and long-life LED chips, and the kit includes diffusers, barn doors and stands to get a small studio or location rig up quickly. The lights aren’t the absolute brightest on the market, but they offer excellent color fidelit

Solid studio kit with precise control
Ideal for my small studio. The lights aren’t the absolute brightest compared to flagship units, but the app, RGB controls and scene presets give me the looks I need for interviews and creative pieces. Panels are well built and lightweight — a great blend of control and portability.

Great for church livestreams
We added these lights to our church streaming setup and they’ve been fantastic. Bright, simple to deploy, and the color options look great on camera. Our live videos improved noticeably.

Excellent value and professional results
I’ve used the 800D three-panel set across real estate shoots and short films and it outperforms its cost. The aluminum housing is light yet sturdy for travel, and the case stores everything neatly. Panels produce consistent, natural colors (high CRI) and the controls let me dial in exact tones for different scenes. Reliable kit for versatile, on-location work.

Excellent support and a quality kit
Customer service was outstanding when I reported cosmetic damage; they arranged a replacement quickly and even included a small apology gift. The kit itself feels well made and arrives with three LED panels, three diffusers, three sets of four barn-door flaps and solid mounting hardware. Communication and aftercare were impressive.

Reliable and easy to use
Does what it’s supposed to: portable, simple to operate, and controllable via app. Remember the batteries aren’t included. Support was responsive when I had questions. Overall very satisfied.

Fantastic for livestreaming—app needs polish
This kit raised the production value of my home livestreams and saved a lot of space compared to big softboxes. The app takes a little getting used to and I wish it let me rename units instead of cryptic IDs, so I labeled the lights by hand. After tweaking for green-screen work, the results are excellent.

Portable RGB bi-color package
Good price for a portable RGB/bi-color kit with battery capability. They require both battery slots filled to run and won’t charge while plugged in. Great as accent or rim lights and useful as complements to a primary source. Onboard diffusion works okay; adding an extra fabric diffuser softens the output. Yoke can creak when repositioning, so secure on sturdy stands in wind.

Bright enough and feature-rich
These panels are a strong addition to my gear. Not the most powerful lamps out there, but comparable at the price and they add more functionality. Setup is straightforward after installing the app. Two rear dials handle brightness and hue/saturation/temperature, and there’s a mode button for presets and Wi-Fi reset. Battery slots accept NP-F packs for field use (batteries not included).

Compact, powerful little lights
Great for adding color or evenly lighting a green screen. The light is fairly hard even with the diffuser—don’t stare into them. Smaller than I expected, but that’s handy for tight setups. Long cord and NP-F970 compatibility make them travel-friendly. Just plan for extra diffusion if you want softer output.

Comprehensive scene-effect lighting set
My daughter is building an e-commerce studio and this three-light pack is brilliant for catalogue photos and videos. App lets you control lights individually or as a group. Effects like disco, cops, lightning, paparazzi, candle and flickering bulbs are adjustable in intensity. Removable diffusers and stands that extend up to around 8 feet make setup simple. Comes packed neatly for storage and transport.
