    This one's crazy! So unusual to even have the "horns" this colorful. Posted 2 years ago

      Yes! It's so cool-looking. I took this shot just as my light died. I've been using Litra cubes. One no longer works for more than 30 seconds. So, I only used one light for most of the photos in this set. Unfortunately, both lost power when I took this shot, but I decided to go with it anyway. Posted 2 years ago

        Can they not be used whilst in charging mode? Posted 2 years ago

          Hmmm. I have no idea, but they probably could. The cable that I use to charge them is really short, but it's just a USB so I could probably use longer cords. I never thought of that, lol. Posted 2 years ago

            I always use the Litra lights this way, this way never have to worry about them stopping mid-session. Posted 2 years ago

              Do your lights get super hot and then turn off on their own, though? I find that to also be an issue. Posted 2 years ago

                They do get hot but don't turn off. When connected to USB I can run them indefinitely at 70% power level. Posted 2 years ago

                  I feel like I should delete this whole thread, lol. I always run mine at 100% power, which is probably why they get scorching hot and run out of power so quickly. Posted 2 years ago

                    It's not that obvious and typically not mentioned in any manuals. It took me two weeks of testing to find the maximum power level where it keeps going indefinitely. Posted 2 years ago
