FGen YX-RGX02 kit, two 50 by 70 cm boxes, 135 W CFL review

Two 50 by 70 cm boxes with 135 W daylight bulbs and a published colour index above 90, for 62 € — and a first bullet that tells you how to ask for the missing parts.

The bottom line Two large boxes, two 135 W daylight bulbs, a published colour index above 90 and a 2.5 m lead for 62 € is a lot of usable light. The bulbs cannot be adjusted — the maker says so first — the tubes are glass, and nothing about the boxes themselves is measured.

On the listing

Five bracketed bullets, and the first is about customer service. Instructions for reporting missing or damaged parts, with a 24-hour response promised and replacements offered, ending with a note in parenthesis that the bulb is monochromatic and cannot be adjusted; a highly reflective set with a 2.5 m mains lead, built-in silver fabric with an embossed stone pattern and an external nylon-fibre screen cloth to minimise light loss and weaken shadows; two 135 W energy-saving CFL bulbs said to spread brighter light than 85 W alternatives, at 5500K matching midday sunlight, with a colour rendering index above 90 and a life of up to 10,000 hours; two 2 m multifunction stands whose top interface suits reflex cameras, phone holders, flashes and fill lights, adjustable from 68 to 200 cm in aluminium alloy; and a suitability bullet naming live broadcast, children’s, wedding, pet, still-life and portrait photography.

Above ninety, published

The colour index is the figure that separates this kit from half the shelf. Three of the seven pages here publish one. A source rendering colour faithfully is a source whose photographs need no correcting, and the hub for LED panels next door says to read accuracy before output.

One hundred and thirty-five watts, and the comparison is in the bullet

The third bullet names 85 W bulbs as the alternative it beats. At 5500K on a 50 by 70 cm box that is a genuinely bright soft source for 62 €.

The maker says the bulbs cannot be adjusted

It is the last clause of the first bullet, in brackets: monochromatic and not adjustable. Like the RaLeno kit on this shelf, the output is fixed and balancing two lights means moving them.

A first bullet about missing parts

Before any feature: how to ask for what did not arrive. Two stands, two boxes, two bulbs and a lead is a lot of pieces, and the page is unusually frank about the consequence.

Availability

Between 62 € and 90 € on the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores when this page was last checked.

The British Amazon store carry it too, priced in local currency. Those amounts are deliberately absent from the range above, which reads euro stores only.

Nothing came back from the American Amazon store at all, so the button for that country runs a search instead of opening an entry that is not there.

Everything in this section is the figure Keepa carried on the day of the last update to this page. Availability and prices shift without notice.

What it does well, and what it gives up

Strengths

  • A published colour rendering index above 90, which four of the seven pages here never mention
  • Two 135 W bulbs at 5500K, brighter than the 85 W the same bullet compares them with
  • A 2.5 m mains lead and stands whose top interface also takes a camera or a phone holder

Compromises

  • The bulbs are monochromatic and not adjustable, stated by the maker in its own first bullet
  • CFL rather than LED, rated about 10,000 hours against the 30,000 claimed by the RaLeno kit
  • No depth, no packed size, and no mount that would let anything else be fitted

Specifications

Mount typeNot published as a standard fitting. The fourth bullet describes an E27 lamp holder — the ordinary screw socket — which means the bulb can be replaced by any E27 lamp, and the box itself belongs to this kit alone. That is the opposite arrangement from a Bowens box, where the mount outlives the light
Size and shapeTwo rectangles of 50 by 70 cm, in the title. Larger than the RaLeno squares on this shelf and shaped for a standing figure rather than a face
DepthNot published
Diffusion layersTwo surfaces described in the second bullet: a high-reflectivity silver fabric with an embossed stone pattern inside, and an external nylon-fibre screen cloth, credited with minimising light loss and weakening shadow. No count of removable layers is given
Grid provisionNone
Assembly methodNot described for the boxes. The fourth bullet covers the stands: a multifunction top interface taking reflex cameras, phone holders and flashes, with the lamp holder adjustable between 68 and 200 cm on an aluminium-alloy column
Packed sizeNot published

What people ask before they commit

What does a colour index above 90 actually buy?

Skin that needs no rescuing. The third bullet gives the figure alongside 5500K, which it describes as the colour of midday sunlight. A source that renders known colours faithfully means less correction afterwards, and the hub next door — the LED video lights — puts accuracy ahead of output for exactly this reason. Four pages on this shelf publish no index at all.

Why does the first bullet explain how to complain?

Because kits arrive incomplete. The bullet gives the procedure — click the shop name, then ask a question, with a 24-hour answer promised and replacement parts offered — before describing a single feature. It is an unusual opening, and it says something about how often a box of two stands, two boxes, two bulbs and a lead turns up short.

CFL or LED?

These are compact fluorescent, 135 W each, rated about 10,000 hours. The RaLeno kit on this shelf uses 50 W LEDs rated about 30,000 and argues that they survive transport better — a fair point, since a CFL tube is glass. What the CFL gives here is more light for less money, and a bulb that costs very little to replace.
