This multi-faceted control system offers flexibility and precision in managing lighting setups for diverse shooting scenarios. The light also incorporates eight built-in light effects, enabling creative shooting and the simulation of various atmospheric conditions. Its Bowens-mount compatibility ensures a wide range of accessory options, allowing users to attach various light shapers and modifiers to achieve desired lighting effects.

Usage Features

The UL60 offers a user-friendly experience with several key features:

Stable and Adjustable Light Source: The device provides a consistent light output with adjustable brightness from 0% to 100%, allowing users to fine-tune illumination levels to suit their specific needs. The color temperature is fixed at 5600K±300K, ensuring a daylight-balanced output.
Remote Control Capabilities:
- 2.4G Wireless Control: The UL60 features a 2.4G wireless system, enabling remote control via the optional RC-A6 remote control. This system supports 16 groups, 32 channels, and 99 IDs, providing robust anti-interference capabilities for complex multi-light setups. Users can adjust channel (CH), group (GR), and ID values directly from the controller's interface.
- Bluetooth Control: The "Godox Light" smartphone APP, available for both Android and Apple devices, allows for intuitive control of the UL60 via Bluetooth. Users can check the Bluetooth code on the controller and reset the Bluetooth connection when switching between mobile devices. The APP provides detailed guidance for operation.
- DMX Control: For professional studio environments, the UL60 supports DMX control, allowing integration into existing DMX lighting systems. Users can set DMX channels from 1 to 512, with options for both normal and quick adjustments.
Light Effects Mode: The UL60 includes eight pre-programmed light effects (Flash 1, Flash 2, Flash 3, Storm 1, Storm 2, Storm 3, TV, and Broken Bulb) that can be selected via the FX button on the controller. These effects enable users to add dynamic and creative elements to their video productions.
Separate Main Body and Controller: The innovative design of separating the main light body from the controller offers several advantages. The controller can be positioned conveniently for easy access, while the light body, with its U-type bracket, can be easily adjusted for different angles or suspended for overhead lighting. This separation also contributes to better heat dissipation, enhancing the longevity and performance of the unit.
Power Supply Options: The UL60 can be powered by either AC power or an optional V-mount battery.
- AC Power Supply: The device connects to a standard AC power source using the provided power cable and connection cable, ensuring a reliable power supply for extended use.

Compact and Lightweight Design: The UL60 is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it suitable for various shooting environments and easy to transport.
Bowens-Mount Compatibility: The Bowens-mount ensures compatibility with a wide array of light modifiers and accessories, such as reflectors, softboxes, beauty dishes, and snoots, allowing users to shape and control the light precisely.
