Compact On-Camera Light

The Mettlelite MT VL-80 is a pocket-sized LED panel built for creators who need reliable colour quality on the move. Its 80 high-CRI beads render skin tones and product detail accurately at a fixed 5600K daylight balance. The square 3.7-inch form factor slips onto a camera hot shoe or the included mini tripod without adding bulk. It suits vloggers, streamers and interview shooters who value simplicity over complex controls.

Step Up from Phone Torch

Replacing a smartphone flash or basic clip-on light, this panel adds flicker-free output and a CRI of 95+ for consistent colour across takes. The jump is worth it when mixed lighting or skin-tone accuracy matter more than raw intensity. A snap-on warm filter shifts the mood toward tungsten without gels or apps. Battery power removes the need for mains cables during location work or quick setups.

Fill Range and Limits

The fixture comfortably lights a single subject at arm's length for talking-head video, tabletop product shots or conference calls. Output drops off beyond close range, so it cannot key a group or fill a large room. AA cells keep it running cool and cable-free, but swapping them mid-shoot interrupts flow. The 1/4-inch socket allows mounting on standard stands when the mini tripod is too low.

Questions about this item

What are the exact dimensions of the Mettlelite MT VL-80 so I can check if it fits on my camera hot shoe?

The light body measures 3.7 inches long, 1.18 inches wide and 3.7 inches high (9.4 x 3 x 9.4 cm). It mounts via a standard 1/4"-20 socket on the bottom, not a hot-shoe foot, so you will need a bracket or cold-shoe adapter with a 1/4"-20 stud.

How do I mount the VL80 on the included mini tripod without it wobbling?

Screw the 1/4"-20 thread on the base of the light firmly into the tripod head until the light body sits flush; the step people miss is tightening it by hand until there is no rotational play, otherwise the light can sag during use.

When will I need to replace the AA batteries and the colour filter?

Battery life depends on the AA cells you choose; carry spares and swap them when output dims. The warm filter is a physical gel that can scratch or fade over time — replace it if you see discolouration or damage that affects the 5600K daylight balance.
