Recently my video light (tovatec 1000) flooded 2nd time and I m looking for new video lights for Tovatec-flex arms with YS mounts. I have selected two of the brands Fantasea 3000 and Hydra 2500 WRU Macro, based on availability and compatibility with my tray and arms. Both are of same price $399 exclusive of shipping which is my max. budget.
Kranken 2500 having the benefit of burst mode, pink light, plus light head is water resistant, only batteries need to be replaced in case of flood. However it has less lumens than Fantasea 3000, and also battery is propitiatory lithium type and can be ordered only from Kraken.
Fantasea 3000 have more lumen plus battery type (18650 lithium-ion) is cheap and commonly available. I m not sure if the light head is waterproof or not. However this model of fantsea light is discontinued, I am not sure for the reason to discontinue??
Please suggest which one is better in terms of durability and quality of lighting and can be used on long term basis.
