Yeaaaa, this not a deal. Just a new IKEA product and a significantly cheaper alternative to BenQ’s overpriced $120+ ScreenBar.
Dimmable, 370 lumens, USB-C and most importantly, Turquoise.
Bring on the “This-is-not-a-deal“ hate!

Are they good blubs?
I like IKEA. Not so much Kogan :)
OzRRP
BenQ's is not the only option available, a few key things I see
- No temperature range, doesn't specify what kelvin the light is either
- Built-in cable
- tilt adjustment looks finnicky
- 4 set brightnesses, not a smooth ramp adjustment
Not all LEDs are made equal, someone would have to measure the CRI output
At least it’s not microUSB :)
IKEA usually does their homework. I bet this is an acceptable mediocre product that won’t certainly touch BenQs but will satisfy a lot of people who want them just because every influencer has one for much cheaper, which is generally what they target anyway.
CRI output
This is quite important for me.
Also the Benq, is that better than the xiaomi? It's half the price, or less with a wireless rotary dial for brightness control. They mention Razor Chroma support which I've tried and given up on, but it's a thing.
Random link for reference.

BenQ one is better because it’s more ex. And this one is better because it’s more cheap :)
I'm happy with my Xiaomi
the puck is great for turning it on & off as you don't have to reach forward to the monitor, particularly when it's on an arm
great light quality with smooth adjustable kelvin & brightness
plenty of rotation and removable type-C cableHow much did that cost and which retailer did you buy from?
I bought the Quntis from Amazon a few weeks ago and that's actually pretty decent.
For whatever strange reason the laptop version which is more a selfie ring light but could serve a similar purpose does let you adjust temperatures, has a ball joint which looks like it offers better tilt adjustment and is cheaper.
Still built-in cable though and has even less brightness adjustments, 3 instead of 4.

I bought this one a while ago and have been pretty happy with it. 3 different temperatures and smooth adjustment for brightness
But this one is Swedish :)
Can't argue with that
More likely Chinesh
Chinesh and blubs ! Ozbargain never disappoints
This-is-not-a-seal
This is 🦭
How many % horse meat?
just buy xiaomi one, bought it almost 2 years ago and still going strong and serving me well.
Is that the Xiaomi Mija?
pretty sure it's just called computer monitor light
I tried to look up more details and someone on YouTube mentioned that this has 3000K colour temp and 3 brightness settings, seems to fade/dim between settings by pressing the button on top, press and hold to turn off. Not as convenient as a hockey puck, but seems okay for the price
Why's it only available in this ugly colour though?
Beauty is in the eye of its beholder :)
Will this make my pc lag?
Only if you lack RGB lighting :)
Reg. price?
Bingo :)
but my standalone webcam already takes up that same placement?
Buy two and put them on either side.
isn't this comparing koganlight blub to Philip hue light blubs purely on price?
