I played with a 2 cube kit for a weekend… very neat but
I had to use my Rock Solid External Battery Pack to
support my ambitions.

Light is free… capturing it is not!

I prefer the Litra 2.0, well that was a year ago when I had compared them.  I haven't looked that their lights this year.  As I recall, you do get a wider and brighter light from the Litra.  So I was told, but obviously I only have the this one, and have not physically compared to the Lume Cube.  What do you plan to use it for?

As a continuous lighting source for static macro shots.

The older ones suck, as I understand the newer Lume Cubes are supposed to be pretty good.  Battery life is better.

So, the older ones suck because of battery life? Any other reason? What were you using them for?
