What is the output of this unit, in lumens?
Asked by: will
I can't find a beam angle in the specs, but assuming a 90º beam angle (pulled this out of thin air), then 550 lux @ .5 m would be about 410 lumens, which doesn't sound outlandish, according to this calculator I found: https://lamphq.com/lux-lumens-conversion/ Take this number with a grain of salt, though, since I made up the beam angle.

Would this be a good alternative to an external flash for a film camera?

No, I would not use it as a substitute of a flash. It can be used but the lighting result may not be good depending on the subject's distance.

is it bright enough to be used as a small flashlite?
Asked by: RAY
Its use as a flashlight will depend on the surface area that needs to be covered. Because it is mostly diffused over a wider area rather than focused as a beam, its coverage is further but dimmer. Your results may differ during actual use.

Can this act as a power bank to charge other devices?
Asked by: Sam
The Lume Cube Panel Mini, offers a USB-C power input, but does not output power. As such, it would not be able to power another device. An LED light that does have a power output, which could be used to charge your mobile devices, is the Genaray Powerbank 96A Pocket LED Light (Tungsten to Daylight, 4000mAh) https://bhpho.to/3EUcvav
