I received my light yesterday and immediately set it up and started photographing items to add to my website. The light was great and gave me the proper lighting that I needed to showcase my items without any problems. I love the ability to adjust the lighting from warm to cool and not have shadows. I'm so happy I decided to up my game by purchasing this light.

Therefore I will create a frame that can rest on the mount. Which means I can create a rectangular frame which is 3.5 inch lesser than TV dimensions: That is

What else? Pour a glass of wine or a cup of herbal tea and enjoy your favorite TV show or movie in this amazing ambience :)

For the same reason I wanted one for my TV. While looking for a TV backlight I did some research and concluded these points, which later became motivation for this DIY version.

So here is the Idea finally revealed, we want to create a frame of plastic casing which has LED strip lights glued. And which can be easily placed behind the TV supported by LED mount thus leaving the TV untouched.

The biggest differences between the two ring lights are the types of power sources and light output. The Cordless Ring Light Pro has a built-in lithium ion battery, whereas the 18" Ring Light is powered via AC and does not come with batteries.

Also, the Cordless Ring Light Pro has an output of 1500 lumens, whereas the 18" Ring Light has an output of 528 lumens. While both are portable for on-the-go use, the Cordless Ring Light Pro is also substantially lighter than the 18" Ring Light.

I did not want to cut the LED strip to match the frame size, but if you want that, you can measure the LED strip size and cut it from the next separator indicator (4 copper dots with scissor mark on the strip after every 3 LEDs usually, you can't cut LED strip from anywhere but these marks)

Plastic casing are usually not very strong, they become loose if not secured properly. therefore I decided to glue the L shaped connectors with the Casing to ensure they are secured nicely and don't get loose. I applied glue as per instructions on the glue packing. (I did not use E6000 here) . They were:

Honestly this light is amazing!!! I didn’t use the stand I actually bought a wall arm and attached the like to it and it’s so bright and gives even brightness which I need!!! I’ve gone through so many ring lights from Amazon to other brands and this is by far the best one I’ve bought so don’t think about getting it. Do it!

BUT... When we attach the L shaped connectors, it will add additional 1 inch to width of the frame on both sides thus making it 22 inches
