Is the Elgato Key Light Mini suitable for long daily use?
That depends on your habits. The model is not presented as ergonomic and it offers no adjustment, which counts over full days at the desk. Its 4.3/5 score across 1,400 Amazon reviews gives a sense of how it feels in daily use. Going wireless also helps you reposition it through the day.
