    i had some of these (yidoblo) . was happy with them but got 4 points that i didnt like about them:
    1: center of gravity, the mount is offcentered on the opposite side of the battery, so when you have a big NPF battery on it on a thin lightstand, the thing will hang to the side.
    2: the power/mode buttons are the same and hard to see the difference, so its always a struggle to figure out which one to press and hold. ends up always being a faff
    3: the main deal breaker to me, if you put the battery on it with the light switched off, it will drain a npf battery within a couple of days.
    4: the 1/4 screw thread is too deep into the rubber base, meaning most 1/4 adapters/light stands wont go "deep enough" to reach the thread, the ones that have a screw ring, you basically have to remove that ring to be able to screw into it.
    Also worth noting that NPF batteries are limited to 30W output (not 1 stop less), so if you want 100W out of this, you need to use a USBC to DC adapter (included) or the mains power supply.
    For those reasons as ill use 99% of the time battery powered, I ended up prefering the ulanzi 40W (able to overclock to 50W) ones, as they do 50W from battery, theyhave built in battery and doesnt self drain in the case, plus they cost less than half of this (not to mention no need to buy sony batteries)

      Thank you for sharing this…. Of course, with my luck, I hadn’t checked the comments until today when my light arrived…. I work in TV news so I’ll be trying it out as a key light with my reporter(s) backlight by the sun and see how that works, both, with an NP battery and with the power supply that’s included in the box!

      There's another point (yadoblo):
      I just bought a smallrig adapter, mini bowens to bowens to use with that, but doens't fit, cuz the right grip in too deep.
      Any solutions? The Zhiyun X100 adapter doens't look same mount...
      By the way, the app (RGBLED) is terrible.

    Does the Yidoblo ZC-100Bi stay on if go from battery to USB-C. As an example you are running it on a NPF battery and you plug in a USB-C power source to replace the NPF battery.

    I am kind of invested in the Cobor ecosystem now. Their app works well, and it's nice to be able to control all the lights from a single app. I don't need the 100 right now, but if I traveled more I might consider it.

    I don't think np-f batteries can handle a 50w draw so it's unlikely they can power a light half as bright as an x100...
    Also zhiyun x100's are about $170 (new, best offer) regularly on eBay, that's what I paid for a few of mine. I noticed they even had some for $130 for a while.
