Looks great Critters! Thanks for pointing out those LEDs, I didn't know those existed. Are they very loud?

They are loud, I wouldn't say "very". Using a DB app on my iPhone my background noise (light off) was 44dB and 1ft away from the light when it was on was 59dB

There is a slight flicker, at max FPS (21.65k) it dims every other frame. You can't see it if you playback at 60fps or capture at a lower rate
You can power it with a battery and chain them together which is pretty cool, i'm using an AC power supply he provided

Great shot Critters, thanks for url to the LED's too.

May I  ask if you used any color grading in this video? It looks more contrasty than most of the other flat footage I've been watching.

How about the life of them? What is your exception from them hour wise? Also what is the longest you have run them time wise?
