Godox Light Stick Overview
Light up creatively with the black LC500 Mini Bi-Color LED Light Stick from Godox a compact, portable, and lightweight 18" wand for shooting anywhere. The Mini is smaller than the brand's original LC500 stick while bringing additional functionalities. You can easily hold it in your hand using its detachable grip or even hide it unobtrusively in tight areas. The light stick offers a combination of tungsten and daylight LEDs to give you a bi-color output .
The LC500 Mini lets you make your selections using onboard controls or the Godox Light app and your smartphone. Yet another example of the light's versatility is 11 built-in special effects to elevate the look of your projects. A built-in battery provides 100%, 5600K continuous output for about 45 minutes. The light ships with a carry bag to add to its portability.
Compact Size, Bright Output

Highly Adjustable and Accurate Colors
Both CCT color temperature and intensity settings are continuously adjustable, from 2500 to 8500K and 0 to 100%, respectively. Furthermore, CRI and TLCI ratings of 95 and 96 indicate accurate color performance.
Handheld Operation and Control
This easy-to-use light allows quick setup and operation, even one-handed. You can use the intuitive local display and buttons to precisely adjust color temperature, brightness, and other settings. The Godox Light app is another option to control the fixture via Bluetooth from up to 98.4' away.
