Light Planting CCXCVIII
Creating a blue and white, art nouveau inspired light plant at an industrial location at night. This light painting was created very quickly due to high ambient light. I used my own acrylic light painting tools for this photo, as well as the discontinued LPP Ryu's V2 torch.

RGB flashlight recommendations for light painting?
Hey all, just recently found this sub and wanting to get more into light painting myself :) would appreciate any tips and tricks you might have around RGB flashlights!
I’ve been playing around with small lights for quick long-exposure photos, mostly in my backyard or on camping trips. I’ve seen people use proper light wands and panels, but have enjoyed more the EDC-style lights because they’re easier to take on the go and change your approach on the fly.
I’d love to understand from you all whether a “fun” flashlight with RGB / green / UV modes / little pixel screen is useful enough for casual light painting, or if it’s mostly a toy. I saw the Lumintop Pixel 300 and the idea of using the dial + color modes for little trails / background effects seems cool, but I haven’t seen many real-world examples when lurking.
Anyone here use small flashlights instead of dedicated light painting gear? Do the color modes actually look decent on camera, or do they end up looking cheap / blown out?
Thank you all again for your insights and expertise!
