The easiest way to increase your illumination is by simply adjusting the position of your webcam or laptop in relation to the light sources in your room – but what happens when late-night meetings occur? In some cases, regular room lighting may not be enough, regardless of how bright it is, and investing in a light specifically for video calls will make a significant difference. That is why remote workers need the best Zoom call lighting solutions available.

Fortunately, you do not need to spend a fortune to ensure that your meetings are well-lit. Here are five innovative products that will maximize the effects of your home office, external lights, or natural lighting.

  • Lume Cube Lighting Kit

    • The Lume Cube is one of the most straightforward lighting kits on the market. Its light is compact enough to be placed near your screen yet strong enough to illuminate your room and ensure visibility. The light includes a suction cup-style PC mount. Attaching it to the back of your screen (or the back of your laptop) and pointing it at yourself takes only two seconds.

    Compared to comparable lighting kits, Lume Cube allows you complete control over the brightness and even the color of the light. Whether you prefer a warm orange glow or a brilliant white look, you will be able to adjust the lighting to match your skin tone, ensuring that you are visible and look nice during your Zoom conversation.

    The light is powered by a lithium-ion battery that lasts at least a couple of hours before requiring recharging through the included USB connector. If your battery dies unexpectedly, you can connect it to your computer or laptop and continue using it while it charges.

  • Cyezcor Lighting Kit

    • Ring lights are popular among online content creators, but they are also popular as conference lights. Cyezcor is a conference lighting kit that includes a small yet strong ring light that attaches straight to the edge of your computer or laptop screen via a clip.

    The light frame is movable, allowing you to point it in the desired direction, and once configured correctly, you can power it using the USB cord connected to your computer. You may also charge the Cyezcor light using a portable power bank or a charging plug. Even though Cyezcor is a reasonably priced conference light, it includes an inbuilt controller that enables you to select your desired lighting style ranging from 1 to 5, 1 being cool-white and five being a warmer, yellow-white.

  • The ACMEZING Ring Light Attached to a Stand

    • If you are not concerned with the light’s quality but are concerned with its positioning options, this may be the right lighting kit for your Zoom calls. ACMEZING offers a standard ring lighting kit, but what makes it unique is that it includes two setup possibilities. Attach it to a clip for mounting on your screen or to a small tripod stand that you can position wherever on your desk.

    A USB connection powers most ring lights, so you only need one USB port to plug it in. However, you can modify the brightness and color using the included controller. Whatever location you choose for the ring light, you will be able to change ACMEZING’s orientation due to the light’s 360-degree rotation and 180-degree tilt.

  • ScreenLight with a HumanCentric Focus

    • If you’re looking for a light that takes care of everything for you and requires no adjustments, the HumanCentric ScreenLight is the ideal lighting kit for your Zoom sessions. This is a similar lighting kit to the Cube light, but it is constructed differently to ensure that white and warm colors are transmitted evenly through the mixed white and orange LEDs. The combination results in an ideal blend of colors that enhance lighting conditions at any time of day or night.

    Additionally, you retain control over the light’s brightness, allowing you to tailor it to your surroundings or combine it with other lights in your space. The HumanCentric ScreenLight is powered by a rechargeable battery that lasts at least two hours. When the battery runs out, attach it to the USB port to continue using it while it recharges.

    This square light has a custom-designed screen mounting clip that enables you to mount it directly to the top of your screen without using a suction cup.

  • VIJIM Lighting Kit for Video Conferencing

    • VIJIM is one of the most innovative conference lighting kits available. It eliminates the need for users to worry about placement while allowing for easy customization of the light’s location for optimal results. This conference lighting kit incorporates soft light technology to ensure that the light is comfortable on the eyes without reducing the lighting quality. It is also worth noting that the light is customizable, allowing you to tune it to your skin tone.

    Due to the light’s adjustable tripod stand, you can experiment and determine which placement works best for you. VIJIM’s USP is that it can be utilized to illuminate your work desk or even your keyboard area when not in use for Zoom calls.

    Tips to Boost Performance During Zoom Meetings in Low Light

    Since the invention of front-facing smartphone cameras, lighting has been critical. There is no better image or video than one taken with a good light directed at you. The first step toward improving your appearance on Zoom is to adjust your lighting.

    A well-lit video can make the difference between a dark, grainy recording and a bright, high-quality recording. If you work in an area of your home with poor lighting, transfer your home office to a place with the most natural light available to lighten up gloomy videos. Natural light is one of the simplest and quickest methods of achieving enough illumination.

    If relocation is not an option for resolving your dark lighting issue, the five options we suggested would assist you in achieving optimal lighting even in the darkest space in your home.

    Zoom calls are best made when your light is placed near you. The best placement is directly behind (or on top of) the screen because it will not obstruct your view, your Zoom guests won’t notice, and you will enjoy the results. Typically, you would be unable to keep any other illumination this close without becoming blinded, so you need to select a light specifically designed for video chats, as recommended in this article.
