The Reflx Lab mini flash is small enough to disappear in a camera bag. I tested it with compact lenses and found both a fun direct-flash look and some limitations.

What I enjoyed
The simple switch and quick startup made the flash easy to grab for casual photographs. I show it alongside memory cards for scale and demonstrate it on small camera-and-lens combinations.
Lens shadows matter
A larger lens can block the light because the flash sits so low. My sample images show how that shadow changes with framing and focal length. A small pancake lens was a better match for the look I wanted.
Reliability and support
My first unit stopped working, and Reflx Lab sent a replacement after I contacted support. I include that experience in the review, along with the supplied charging-cable guidance.
