Apart from the very good heatsinking of the LEDs on this light, there is a very unusual feature in that the metal bodied USB plug can go in either way round.
I'm still pondering if I'll continue using this phone as my main camera. Comments welcomed.
Here's a general eBay search link for this USB light.

In America we say ALUMINUM!
That reversible connector got me wondering if there existed a simple adapter for USB devices that consists of a socket and reversible plug, that could be slipped over an existing USB plug to make it connectable both ways up. Searched eBay; they have every other type of adapter, but not that.
I recently purchased a couple similar lights from ebay , 3 LED and 8 LED versions along with some single LED accent lights for use in a car n what not. Cant wait to get them n test em out
Your voice is so wonderfully soothing. Subscribed
Are we able to send some electronics for you to inspect for your channel?
Nice to see a good product for a change!
so I ordered a few of these after seeing you review them and they are actually pretty nice and also bright but mine do not have the bipolar connector….
.
wa wa wa wahhhhhhh
Bought one and it wasnt the reversible type
I ordered one of these and it arrived today. There was a diffuser cover over the LEDs and the connector was not two-way. Oh well.
I got one with a diffuser and a one-way USB port.
Still happy, it faces the right way round for me.
That's neat, but one with a micro B or type-C connector instead would be awesome.
Basically usb could be made usable in either orientation but they didn't bother untill they could market usb c to us dimwits!… typical really.
And now usb c connectors are not compatible with old usb ports whereas this connector would be, again typical.
