Product: Gyeon Prism Plus
Cost: $150
Description:
First off I hope Autopia and Autogeek sell this light. I will start off by mentioning that this light serves a dual purpose. To view paint defects such as swirls and scratches during the paint correction phase but to also aid in the application and removal of coatings.
It comes in the color purple which aligns with the Gyeon color scheme.
The light is pretty simple to operate. It consists of a power button,bluetooth button to use with Gyeon Pism app and the + and – buttons to change the light intensity and light color.
The power button serves two functions. It is similar to the scangrip sun match in holding the power button to select the different light color. In this case it allows one to switch between the light intensity and the light color. The + and –buttons are what selects the light intensity and the light color.
In this photo the green LED’s indicate the amount of hours while the left yellow/orange LED is showing which percentage of light is selected. So this mode is the light intensity selection.
In this photo the yellow LED indicates that the light is in the color change mode.
This location is for the charger but the light can also act as a power bank to charge say a cell phone.
The base contains magnets.
What set this light apart is the inclusion of two diffusers. One is more transparent than the other. They contain magnets and are held onto the lights screws around the LED housing.
Just to give an idea of what the diffused light looks like. I have it set to 2500K at 25% to view the silver paint.
So by this point you are asking yourself why am I reading this and why should I consider buying one.
It is for this exact reason. The diffused light allows one to see the coating easier than a regular light or tweaking your head looking for the right light to make sure the coating has been completely wiped off to avoid that dreaded high spot.
2500K on silver paint. We all know how hard it is to coat light color paints.
I found this light to be great at what it is designed to do. That is not to only see paint defects but to also see the coating a lot easier with the diffuser. It is as simple as choosing the right diffuser and the light temperature combination for the paint color that is being worked on.
Scnagrip did release the diffuser separately but they are for the Multimatch 3 which is larger light. This Gyeon light is essential the Multimatch R.
I averaged a couple of hours of run time based on the intensity of light I was using. It can also be used plugged in needed.
One thing I almost forgot is the bluetooth application and the integration. It is pretty useful if the light is not within reach. The app is straight forward to use and control. The only caveat is the bluetooth button has to be on indicated by the blue LED. This will also use a little bit of battery life.
Does a handheld scangrip work? It sure does. But this light is so much nicer when it comes to coating installation. Scangrip needs to make a diffuser for the hand held.
I would recommend this light and say it is worth the price.
