Overview

The Neewer FS230B is a 230W bi-color COB LED continuous light built for photographers and videographers who need reliable, high-output illumination in a compact form factor. Weighing just 3.8 lbs and measuring 7.9 × 5.1 × 4.7 inches, it delivers a maximum illuminance of 110,000 lux at one meter — enough power for key lighting in studio portraits, product photography, interviews, and video production. Its bi-color capability spans from 2700K warm tungsten to 6500K cool daylight, adjustable on the fly, making it adaptable across mixed-lighting environments without the need for gel filters. Color accuracy is a standout feature, with CRI 97+ and TLCI 98+ ratings ensuring that skin tones and product colors are rendered faithfully on camera.

Dimming is handled through flicker-free PWM technology with 1% incremental precision across the full 0–100% range, and four selectable dimming curves — exponential, logarithmic, S-curve, and linear — provide nuanced control for different shooting scenarios. The standard Bowens mount accepts a broad range of modifiers, and the included reflector features a scaled interior pattern for even light distribution. An umbrella socket accommodates a photography umbrella alongside the reflector for additional shaping options. For control, the FS230B offers both a built-in 2.4G wireless system supporting 00–99 channels and the Neewer app for group control, OTA firmware updates, and advanced features including 12 built-in special effects. Dual power options — AC adapter with a locking XLR cable and V-mount battery input — ensure the light performs reliably in both studio and field environments.

Key Features

【230W Powerful Compact Studio Light】 NEEWER FS230B Continuous Video Light uses premium and efficient COB LEDs for superior brightness, high 230W output, and 110000lux/1m max. illuminance. The portable spotlight weighs only 3.8lb/1.7kg, measures 7.9"x5.1"x4.7"/200x130x120mm, with a 180° tilt tripod stand mount adapter for free angle setups. For portrait photography lighting, studio photoshoots, podcasts, interviews, YouTube/TikTok video recording, videography, filming, live streaming, etc.

【Precise PWM Dimming & Bi Color Light】 With PWM dimming technology, brightness levels are precisely adjustable from 0 to 100% in 1% increments without any flicker. 4 dimming patterns (exponential, logarithmic, S, and linear) meet all requirements for accurate lighting adjustment. High CRI 97+ and TLCI 98+ ensure faithful color rendition. A vast 2700K-6500K color temperature range offers warm and cool lighting. 12 special effects make videos creative and distinct

【Infinity App & 2.4G Wireless Control】 The NEEWER APP supports group control and OTA firmware update. It also provides Light Source, Source Match, CTO/B, FX Music, and other functions for advanced lighting control. The built in 2.4G system supports group control of different models (including SL90, RGB1, RGB C80, RGB 1200, MS60C, MC60B, MS150B, BH30S, and CB60B) in 00-99 channels. When all lights are set in the same channel, setting 1 light can make others change in tandem

【Standard Bowens Mount & Silent Fan】 The included reflector with a scale pattern interior can evenly distribute the light source. The Bowens mount is compatible with softboxes, snoots, beauty dishes, and other light shapers. The umbrella socket allows a photography umbrella and the reflector mounting at once. The silent cooling fan can automatically reduce heat based on the actual working temperature for overheating protection and quiet shooting environments

【Dual Power Sources with Cable Lock】 The light can be powered by the power adapter and power cord (US Plug) for continuous operation. The XLR power input is designed with a cable lock that prevents the cable from loosening, as so to ensure constant and reliable illumination. The light can also run on a V mount battery (sold separately) for convenient and cordless lighting. The output voltage of the V mount battery is 16.8V
