Godox designed this panel with e-sports enthusiasts in mind, but really, any streamer or vlogger can appreciate the nice touches brought to this light. With its built-in diffuser, clever control panel, and included desk mount, the ES45 will seamlessly integrate with any streaming setup!
The control panel can remain docked on the light, or moved within easy reach on your desk. If you use any kind of control board to manage your stream, the all-black tactile dials on the ES45 panel will look right at home with it.
Alternatively, manage your ES45 via Bluetooth from a phone or tablet and the Godox Light app! This is ideal if your ES45 will work in tandem with other Godox lights.
The ES45 is thin and sleek, with a brushed-aluminum finish on the back. If your lights are ever in frame, they'll be looking their best!
This is still a small panel we're talking about here, but the built-in diffuser helps to get rid of some of that harsh secularity. In addition rendering beautiful light, the ES45 easier on the eyes than an uncovered panel.
No need to purchase extra hardware for your light. The ES45 comes with everything you need to get your light in place and start streaming,
Supporting a colour range of 2800-6500K, you can easily match the temperature of your ambient light. Or, get creative and set up a differential.

I went to the Strobepro retail store in Calgary looking for a ring light but walked out with something much better. I met Tracy in the showroom, and after some questions about what I was planning on doing with the lights he suggested that rather than using a ring light, I would get better results with the Godox ES45 Bi-Colour LED Light Kit. His advice was spot on! One of the challenges for me is that I wear glasses so a ring light was going to be problematic with glare and reflections. The ES54 solves this problem as it comes with a mount that allows you to clamp it to a table or desk and then telescope it up to a max of about three feet. This solved the glare issue. Another great feature of this light is how bright it is. I'm in a smaller space where I use them but I don't think you would have any issues using this in a variety of applications in a large space as well. The light is fully adjustable for brightness and colour temperature which I found easy to use and accurate. My favorite feature of the light however is the detachable control modal. I bought two of these lights and the control module allows you to lock the lights together and use a single control module for both or you can have them on different channels for individual control. This is a huge time saver as can sit at my desk and dial in my settings while looking at my live camera image. If you are looking for an affordable and versatile LED lighting panel the Godox ES45 is a great choice.

Easy to use and setup, great diffusion so it's easy on the eyes, and I love the little remote, it's so convenient and goes back on the light to charge! Simple!
One can read individual product reviews anywhere these days, therefore this review is for the customer service I received. They explained me about various lighting options ‘patiently and in detail’ even though I had informed them that I do not have plans to buy the other products at this moment. I will definitely buy from them again.
Light was exactly as promoted - a compact, powerful LED panel with sleek design and very useful remote wireless controls. The battery life of the remote is amazing. I've used the light every day for three weeks and the battery still shows 2 of 3 bars of charge. Recharging is easy - you just magnetically attach the unit to the back of the ES45 unit. My only point of concern is that the diffuser isn't as effective at softening the output as I had hoped. The light is very directional and casts hard shadows. I'd recommend either getting a second unit (which pair together nicely using the group/channel function) or bouncing the light off another surface, as I am doing.
