Zhiyun CX100 warning

Zhiyun just released a cheaper version of the X100 LED COB light. If you travel DO NOT TRAVEL WITH A CX100, it could accidentally start a fire while inside a bag or suitcase. these Zhiyun lights are quite compact and small because the battery is permanently attached and can accidentally come one if the switch is rubbed a certain way. The Zhiyun CX100 LED light is a less expensive version of the Zhiyun X100 COB light but of course it's cutting some corners to lower the cost. It can also be powered by any USB-C USB3 power source and a 100w USB cord if desired. I highly suggest getting the original X100 light with removable battery here amzn.to/43kX1Ys
If you still want the cheaper CX100 with attached battery, you can get it here geni.us/AMZ-CX...
USB-C PD 100w cable set amzn.to/43Kr9fI

Hi Markus, sorry for the confusion caused and we appreciate your feedback on the product. We'll soon publish a quick tutorial video on our RU-vid channel for better guidance. Some little tips that might be helpful: 1. Single press the power button until the indicator shines, then long press it to power on the light. (we've made a small sticker on the top as a reminder) 2. Remember to dial the DIM button to above zero so the light can be illuminated. For all potential customers, we provide "30-day no-reason-to-return policy", so if you're not so sure about it but wanna give it a try, feel free to order one for testings.😄 Thanks again for your honest feedback, Markus😉

@codythep 6 месяцев назад

Instead of the clumsy power brick you can use the X100 with USB C up to 100 watts. I've got tons of high power USB bricks and adapters in all wattage ranges so this is a great option for me. They power variably as well and the 50% brightness clicks increase linearly with the amount of power coming from the brick. So if you're using a small 65watt brick like I often do, one click is 37% brightness, another click is 65% brightness (the full power of the 65w brick) and another click is off. It's just a cord coming out of the wall essentially and hyper portable, a great solution.

I was wondering when someone was gonna tell the truth about these cob lights. just a heads up, it's amazing the lights haven't gotten busted that little center piece needs protected almost at all times. i love the design factor, minus the cheap plastic knobs, it's small and i would love to add these to a flight kit for run and gun stuff for this festival season. but zhiyun, as i can see from their comment below addressing the light switch and not the fact that it's a fire hazard, have one of the worst customer service i've yet to experience with any other brand. for the volume of free shit they give to influencers and youtubers, i think that's bs.

@GlobalShutterNY 6 месяцев назад

Personally I would love the light to just have the USB-C PD power input- I can then power with one of the many wall mount adapters I (and most of us...) already own, and in the field use a V-Mount (which many already own as well...) with a USB-C PD output. Maybe add a V-Mount battery mount on the light to make that 'add your own battery' solution even simpler!

@robertfontaine3650 6 месяцев назад

When they source a certified power brick from another mfr or don't supply one at all they save a bunch money meeting us, eu safety requirements. CSA certifying your lighting with powers supplies takes engineering. I started looking into manufacturing led lighting. To get a design and prototype to CSA certified looked like it would take about 20-50k depending on how much rework you had to incur. At the end of the day it's far easier to buy the parts and self assemble if you aren't running a company and need to be insured.

@KetansaCreatesArt 6 месяцев назад

If you really want to use that 2nd one, I have an idea - Pry off the battery section with a flat screw driver. There should be only glue I believe. After prying you will see both sections are attached with a twin wire. Cut the wire one by one in the middle and attach XT30 male/female plugs to it. Attach longer wires on both sides if it is too short. This will allow you to plug the battery separately whenever you want. To keep them both together while using, attach neodymium magnets to the battery and the lamp body.

Just a heads up! If you turn the dial on the lights to ZERO. If for some strange reason it does power on, the light won't illuminate. Just make sure you turn the dial to zero and you should be fine. Also, the CX100 has a port for USB PD (power delivery) which means you don't need a brick to power it. You can use a PD battery bank or plug it straight into a wall outlet with a usb-c power adapter (like a cell phone charger). I hope this helps! Good video! 👍🏾

Really baffling design choices for this light... Not only they are a fire hazard they are potentially an explosion hazard too: Lithium Ion Batteries exposed to high heat can reach a point in which thermal runaway occurs and it could blow up, since it could be the case that it won't be the only battery in your bag it is exponentially worse!!! (multiple batteries blowing up) This could have been solved so easily by allowing the unit to be detached from the battery! Thanks for the heads up Markus!! Truly appreciated!

@Romafedorov 6 месяцев назад

I have reviewed and tested this light, and I think there is a one-in-a-million chance for it to accidentally power on. I believe what happened in your case is that you left it on, but it was set to 0% brightness, and then the brightness knob was somehow touched by the bag, which turned the light on. However, I might be mistaken, but I do agree with you that it has very cheap knobs, and you can't really use them to precisely adjust the brightness (I wish Zhiyun would've put a cheap display on the back to see the brightness level and color temp). Also, the center spotlight effect when using this light with the Bowens mount adapter and a softbox was one of the first things I noticed with this light; it's definitely a major downside. Anyway, thank you for always being honest, it's rare on RU-vid.

@wildreptiles 6 месяцев назад

The shot press then long press is the same way that DJI drones are turned on so will feel familiar to anyone who uses them. kinda wierd but i guess it stops accidental turn ons.

@MarkusPix 6 месяцев назад

It does not prevent a turn on when something is being continuously rubbed and jostled inside a case or bag. A button like that is ok for a drone and maybe a camera, but not a light that can start fires.
