Cheap, punchy RGBs

[Tim Sewell]

For my next burst of lockdown creativity I'm going to need to shoot some CU and MCUs night for night. The keylight will be tungsten illumination from inside, but I also want some blue fill from the other side. I was trying to remember the code for the filter gel to get that nice steely fake night blue (and if anyone can remind me, that would be great) but then I got to thinking it's payday and the pubs aren't going to open any time soon, so maybe I should get an RGB LED light source instead. So can anyone point me towards a reasonably punchy RGB panel (other fixtures may also be considered) that will suffice, if necessary as a key in low light, for around or under GBP250? Preferably with a UK or EU supplier. Many thanks, filmic funsters!

I have this one, very cheaply made, I haven't  use it much, but the wow effect is there, and for cheap.

I believe there are newer versions out now, II and III but I do not know anything about them.

For the price, is good value I believe.

It's not bright at all in RGB mode and huge in footprint. Do not recommend. 

I went with Vijim V-2 which is 50$ on Ali, 200 gramm, compact, has 3 hour fast charge battery inside, various effects and freakishly bright for its size. And yeah, you can stick it to metal as it has a magnet back. I do recommend this one

Thanks guys. For now I've gone with a FalconEyes FP7, which looks to be a (pretty good) copy of the PilotFly AtomCube. It just arrived and, while I haven't tested with the camera yet, it seems to put out just sufficient light for my current needs.
