Before you choose

Elgato Key Light Mini

The catch: No mount comes in the box: it needs a 1/4-inch screw mount, a tripod or Elgato’s Multi Mount. On battery it lasts about 4 hours at half brightness.

You need:

  • A 3 A USB power supply for full brightness
  • A desk clamp, stand or monitor mount

Logitech Litra Glow

The catch: At 250 lumens it lights a face at the desk, not a room. Logitech asks for a USB 3.0 port to power it.
