It only takes 60 minutes to recharge and if you need to use it while recharging you can.

If put on its brightest setting it will remain on for 60 minutes, however after 20 minutes the front casing is very hot to touch. The light when on its lowest setting will remain on for 240 minutes, until the battery needs to be recharged. The fourth click reverts the light back to the lowest level of brightness. Every short press of the power button increases the brightness of the beam, through four intensities. It has four brightness modes and will always start on the lowest brightness mode, regardless of which mode it was on when turned off. To turn the light on, all you need to do is hold down the clickable power button for 1 second. When charging the light flashes green and remains green when fully charged. When the light is solid green you have more than 35% charge remaining, under 35% the light changes to red, and under 5% the red light flashes. They provide two (60cm) charging cables with the kit, and next to the plug is a battery life indicator. That same back plate features a charging port, specific to Ulanzi’s magnetic charging plug, avoiding the presence of open plugs, into which water can seep. This neat little LED light also features a magnetic back plate, so that it can be attached to metal surfaces to increase its useability. On the top of the Cute light is a female cold shoe, underneath is a ¼ inch female thread and on the left side is the power button, which doubles as a mode button. The light element is on the front of the cube, which is encased by four magnets at each of the corners, which enable the addition of filters and accessories. It’s made of plastic but doesn’t feel cheap. Weighing the weight of an egg at 70 grams and not to dissimilar in size of 41mm (h) x 41mm (w) x 38mm (d), it’s a great addition to your vlog set up or camera bag.

Ulanzi’s latest offering of a waterproof LED video light, named the L2 Cute Light is an exciting addition to the company’s ever growing affordable small video light offering.
