    SmallRig now does actually offer a Bowens adapter for the RC 60B! Sorry, I missed that. You can get it here: (EU) amzn.to/4dyNj9k - (USA) amzn.to/3UYPThK (affiliate links)

    11:00 Smallrig already have adapter for Bowens mount. And the Molus is getting even noisier when you left it to work for 10min at max power :).

    Yep, I totally missed that they released that Bowens mount my bad! But already pinned a comment to clarify that. I haven't noticed an increase in noise with the Molus myself and I've had it running for hours on end (plugged in). 🤷‍♂️

    @@SightseeingStan Yep I saw it right after I wrote it :D. The Molus is getting hot and noisy on max power. The bad thing here is that the noise is not a the same, it is variable which is worse for cleaning in post. Also the Bicolor must be actually more powerful because the RGB one has the same chip size but there are RGB diodes too in that same space... it will be interesting if somebody test that. For me the Molus line is kinda messed up in the design because it is mimicking a camera but on the cost of making it worse as a light fixture. They all need some more metal to reduce the heat and a shape that will make more sense for using as a light. For example because they are so shallow the chip can not spread the light well enough to fill some modifiers.

    The thing with the Zhiyun portability though is the built in mount is not strong enough for a key light softbox (e.g. 60cm or 90cm), so you have to add a bowens adapter which somewhat defeats the purpose of it being so small. The Godox proprietary mount seems a more elegant solution as it can hold a reasonably sized softbox and the overall travel kit is smaller.

    I don't even think they have a softbox that large for this mount. Eitherway, adding the bowens adapter definitely makes the whole package larger. But I guess it really comes down to use cases. I think all of these have a good use in different scenarios. Is one of the the "all-in-one absolute best and better than all the rest"? I don't think so unfortunately...

    @@SightseeingStan Indeed. Thank you for the comparison, I was surprised to learn the ML60 II doesn't have a bowens mount, I am currently using the original ML60 which does and it's extremely quiet too, seems the new one is a bit of a downgrade then?

    @@DigiDriftZone Oh really? I asked Godox about it and they just said it doesn't have one. So weird that they had it on the previous model then. I'm guessing they might still add, like SmallRig did recently. Anyway, glad you liked the video! Thanks for checking it out!

    The Zhiyun Bowens mount adapter is plastic and weak. Mine broke the very first time I mounted it on a light stand. As I tightened the screw on the adapter it literally pulled the metal nut right out of the plastic stem. I pushed it back in but if I try and tighten it again it keeps coming out. Zhiyun probably should have made it metal.

    It was going to be interesting to compare the light pattern and actual power. Also in my opinion the Amaran 60x S is a better option than all of them :)

    @@SightseeingStan it is still one of the best designs. It is compact, bowens mount is integrated, you can use it with NP-F battery plate but not with that stupid handle and when you carry it around run and gun style you start to appreciate that. It is very quiet and has fan control from the app. The only thing that I find more interesting in this power range is the new GVM and INKEE flashlight style 60W lights. Especially the GVM with its small spot modifier that can be used as a focusing flashlight and with a bowens adapter in the studio. For me 60-80W is a good amount of power and you can power that with 2 NP-F which is a great option for many people. We need a swiss army knife light that can work in studio and outside while it is convenient for both scenarios.
