Managed to get this in China 2 days ago. Super bright and handy. Its a little heavy at almost 1kg compared to the original Ice light but the dual colour temperature makes it very handy. Not much to say about the temperature accuracy thou.

Every time I see that light rod in a photo/video shot, it is always in the frame. The only time I don't see it intruding in the shot is on a very tight close-up crop of the subject. I think that design is useless on distances of 8 feet or more from the subject ( lack of lumens). Try lighting up a bride full length with that WITHOUT getting the light in the pic. It can be done by using a wide angle lens, but the perspective will be horrible.
