FAQ
Can it be used without the app?
Yes, it can be controlled manually from the physical button, though you'll lose the convenience of remote control from your computer.
Is there a difference from the full-size Key Light?
The Mini is more compact and costs less, but offers less power (40W vs 80W). For video calls it's more than enough.
