Our take on the Elgato Key Light Air
The Elgato Key Light Air is a Wi-Fi desk key light that puts a soft, even wash on your face. It suits a streamer with a fixed desk and a dim room.
It outputs 1400 lumens and can be dimmed down to a gentle glow. Color temperature runs from 2900 K amber to 7000 K cool white, so you can match a warm room lamp or daylight. Eighty OSRAM LEDs and an edge-lit panel keep the light even and comfortable over long sessions. You control it from the app on Mac, Windows, iPhone or Android. Retailers rate it 4.5 across 3,440 ratings, at a tracked $100.

Where it fits in a build
A lit face reads as higher production than any camera upgrade. At a desk one key light is enough; in the field a pocket light on the rig keeps you visible after dark. See every lighting pick
