    I bought a handful of Monitor Light Bars to see if there was a major difference between quality and price. Through the process I found the most expensive are in fact nicer, but are they worth six times as much money?

    4:45 can you elaborate on this test? If its supposed to show the cone of light, the sn-okylife is clearly better. In terms of hard line, there is virtually no differences especially since you're farther away at the benq making the line stand out

    Love my Baseus but I find that it squeezes the heck out of my monitor. A simple mod using an old plastic card did the trick however. Highly recommend it. I do disagree with the issues you brought up regarding the buttons however. They're pretty straightforward.

    • @btodtv
      @btodtv  2 года назад

      Thanks for the suggestion on the card trick. Curious how old your is? The button just zooms back and forth from dim to bright. It's not easy to dial in and its definitely not easy to make small adjustments during use. It would be better if you could just tap it like other models vs hold it down -GK

    a few weeks ago i bought the xiaomi mi for 40€ and it was a complete life changer.
    now i can comfortably learn for exams at night
    also it is my only light source and does the job perfectly fine for me.

    Off topic, but now I'm wondering what type of light you have BEHIND your monitor. I've just been using a simple lamp with a smart bulb so I can control the colour, but I'd prefer to not have to see that under/behind my monitor all the time. Any suggestions?

  • @supernehc

    recommend trying out the benq light bar halo, maybe more expensive but well worth the price.

    I think the mount systems are always kinda gimmicky especially if you move your monitor around or have thin bezels
    I just double sided tape mine. Zero complaints, extra stable, and easy enough to remove if i want to

    Been using my BenQ Screenbar Plus for 2 years and the only drawback I have found with it is that it doesn't go dim enough. Having the standalone puck for control also feels quite nice so I don't have to fiddle with touch controls.
    The new Halo version looks nice to have an additional lamp on the back of the unit.
