What is it?

The compact design makes Proxima Alpha a portable led light. The spotlight has 40 RGB LEDs, one OLED display 0.96" and a USB-C connector. The brain of this spotlight is the ESP8266. Dimensions of the spotlight: 90 x 60 x 10mm. This device can be used for many applications: photography light, disco light and more.
