Spiffy Gear just announced its newest generation of LED light bracelets: KYU-6. KYU-6 is a lightweight slap-bracelet that provides readily available light on the go. It is magnetic, splash-proof, and easy to use.

KYU-6 comes as a high CRI bi-color strip or clean wavelength RGB. Both flavors feature brightness and color control, and a set of pre-built special effects.

With a high CRI of 95+, KYU-6 provides appealing skin tones and perfect color rendition. At less than 45 grams, KYU-6 is among the lowest profile cinematic lights in the world, so you can hide it just about anywhere, even in plain sight.

Being a wearable light means that your KYU-6 is always with you. It is the perfect tool for cinematographers and content creators alike.

To help you get the most out of your KYU-6, Spiffy Gear is also introducing a line of newly designed accessories to drive your creativity either on or off-camera:

  • A single KYU-6 mount allows you to use the light on-camera, on a light stand, or on a boom pole.
  • An incredibly thin magnetized three-way panel supports up to three lights and features multiple mounting options.
