EDITOR'S CHOICE AWARD

07/01/2024

Flow art, light drawing, and light painting of subjects are different branches of the same glow tree. And the RGB Critter BT is flexible enough to do all three very well.

With top-tier comfort, build quality, and advanced functionality—including nearly infinite color selection and custom presets—it easily earns Editor’s Choice, especially at this price point.

It's the perfect tool for bringing my artistic visions to life

Filipp Kabanyayev @minimaleafs

Hi, I'm Filipp! I'm a passionate photographer who loves to experiment with light and color. One of my specialties is light painting photography, where I transform simple subjects like leaves and flowers into vibrant, ethereal creations using colored lights. Each of my photographs begins in complete darkness, with light added stroke by stroke, just like painting on a canvas. To achieve the best possible results, I need a flashlight that's bright, vibrant, and reliable—and that's why the RGB Critter BT is my go-to choice. I've tried many flashlights, but Critter stands out with over 16 million super-bright colors, intuitive controls, and a durable design that never lets me down. It's the perfect tool for bringing my artistic visions to life. Through my work, I hope to inspire others to appreciate the beauty of simplicity and connect more deeply with the natural world—and with tools like Critter, that vision becomes a reality.
