**The Power of Gears: A Comparison of Mobile Editing Devices**

In this article, we'll delve into the world of mobile editing devices, specifically comparing the performance and features of various models. We'll take a closer look at the iRig Lissie, NAR Box, and others to determine which one reigns supreme.

**Wired Transfer: The Speed Test**

When it comes to transferring data between devices, speed is crucial. Let's start with the iRig Lissie, which uses a USB connection. In our test, we found that the wired transfer took approximately 5 minutes and 10 seconds to copy 7.7 gigabytes of data or 10 minutes of footage. This may seem like a significant amount of time, but consider that most projects require more than 10 minutes of video. The lossy app was capping out at around 25 megabits per second on a lightning port iPad, while the wired connection was slower.

**The NAR Box: A Wi-Fi Powerhouse**

Now, let's move on to the NAR Box, which boasts a Wi-Fi connection and a host of impressive features. With the NAR Box, you can import directly into Luma Fusion or Lightroom, saving you time and effort. In our test, we transferred data from the iRig Lissie to the NAR Box using Wi-Fi, which took approximately three minutes and 39 seconds. This was significantly faster than the wired transfer, making it an excellent option for those who prefer a wireless connection.

**The Limitations of Wi-Fi**

However, there is one limitation to consider when using Wi-Fi: speed. In our test, we found that the NAR Box's Wi-Fi connection was capped out at around 25 megabits per second, even with a faster device like an iPad Pro. This may not be ideal for those who require high-speed data transfer.

**Wired Transfer on the NAR Box**

Now, let's take a closer look at the wired transfer capabilities of the NAR Box. By changing the USB configuration in the settings, you can select USB mass transfer or use a USB-C Ethernet connection. This feature is unique to the NAR Box and allows for faster data transfer over a USB cable. Our test showed that the wired transfer took approximately two minutes and 90 seconds, which is significantly faster than the iRig Lissie.

**Interchangeable Batteries: A Game-Changer**

Another innovative feature of the NAR Box is its interchangeable battery system. This means that you can easily swap out batteries without having to recharge them. The 3000 milliamp hour battery provides up to 4-6 hours of on-time use, making it an excellent option for those who work on-the-go.

**Battery Efficiency and Charging**

The NAR Box's battery efficiency is also impressive, taking around an hour to charge the device to 80% and two hours to reach full capacity. This is a significant improvement over other devices, which can take significantly longer to recharge.

**The Rise of Small Companies: A Testament to Passion and Innovation**

In recent years, small companies have been making waves in the mobile editing device market. The NAR Box is a prime example of this, offering impressive features and performance at an affordable price point. What's truly remarkable about this company is their passion for innovation and customer satisfaction.

**The Future of Mobile Editing Devices**

As technology continues to evolve, we can expect to see even more innovative features in mobile editing devices. The iRig Lissie and NAR Box are pushing the boundaries of what's possible, and it's exciting to think about what the future holds. Whether you're a seasoned editor or just starting out, there's never been a better time to invest in a mobile editing device.

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, the comparison between mobile editing devices has revealed some surprising results. While the iRig Lissie excels in terms of wired transfer, the NAR Box takes the crown when it comes to Wi-Fi speed and features. The interchangeable battery system and excellent battery efficiency make the NAR Box an attractive option for those who work on-the-go. As we look to the future, one thing is clear: small companies are making a big impact in the world of mobile editing devices.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enso yeah as you can see by the title there's been some switching going on and what I'm talking about of course is switching my editing workflow for not only stills but also video work to the iPad or iPhone and I've done a video on this and I did this back earlier this year probably in January when I actually decided that I wanted to try this whole switch thing and see how it worked and today we're gonna talk about that because over the last eight months there have been a lot of changes we have a new OS for iPad there have been some changes just to iOS 13 in general and I've had some hardware changes that I've switched around with that have actually made this whole process even easier and many of you have commented Ted why don't you just use a laptop well laptops are wonderful and they are very portable but this is even more so and I promise anyone who's tried to sit in a coach glass seat on an airplane to edit video know that a laptop gets really big really quick there's like no room to move and as soon as you need to plug in a drive or something to get files off of it it's just like super cramped the other reason is that I've used this not only when I'm on the road but also when I'm at home I'm not chained to the studio here so I don't have to sit here and edit at the desk 12 hours a day I can move to the living room I can go to a coffee shop it makes me much more mobile and mobile means that I'm more productive and that is the big key here now as I mentioned in the previous video by far the biggest challenge in a mobile workflow like this at least in the Apple ecosystem is getting your files from your camera to the device whether this is an iPad or your iPhone now Android have had this functionality for a long time now and Apple have finally come to the party and with iOS 13 we actually have a dedicated OS for the iPad which is something that they've needed because the iPad is something that lives somewhere between the phone and an actual computer you have a bigger screen you're able to do more with it and this speaks volumes to Apple as well the processing power they have with their processors now is very efficient and it's very powerful and I think that it rivals desktop computers and this is actually good because you're going to pay almost as much as you are for a real laptop or real computers so that's the challenges how do you get files from a camera after you've captured them to the device and this is where an intermediary device is come into play so I swear I literally and the test palette for you guys on every option that's available the first thing I started with was the obvious you go to the Apple store and you buy this extremely overpriced adapter that will take an SD card so you can take your files you can put them in here and this will plug into your iPad or your phone and you can transfer them that way the problem is is this is SD card so what if you have an x QD card or something that's a little different like let's see you own a nikon z6 or z7 this saint's gonna handle it which actually brings me to another realization that I had about this process if you're going from an SD card just straight to your tablet or your phone I don't think a tablet or phone is really a good place to store data it can get lost it can get stolen and it's not really designed for media management and so that's when I realize there's a number of different things on the market that might be able to make this a little easier and faster so like most people I started with the cheapest device that I could find which is this ravpower device there's no drive in here all this is is a Wi-Fi connection that you can put an SD card into and this enables you to just basically have a wireless version of this although it was pretty bad and as much as ravpower make really good batteries that's probably what they should stick to then I bought this which is the WD my passport wireless SSD what this does is it has an SSD hard drive inside and you can actually put your SD card in here and it will backup while it's in your camera bag or your backpack and then you can wirelessly transfer your files from this over to your iPad or phone in theory the codec support on here for video is extremely bad it's not very fast despite the fact that they put an SSD in here for some reason you're not going to get speeds that are gonna take advantage of the SSD in any way so this was kind of a flop then I came to this Drive which is made by Lissy and it's actually co branded with DJ IDEs the little seed DJI copilot I think the marketing move there was that people who fly drones and want a way to back up their footage while they're out in the field have a way to do so of course it just takes an SD card so doesn't matter whether it was shot on a drone or not and this is what I've used for the better part of the year and I like this option because it is a wired connection so it comes with three different cables there's a lightning a USB C and a generic USB cable and you can plug this into whatever device you have the software is supported on both Android and Apple it's a little bit kludgy to use but even with the wired connection it's a little bit slow and I actually ran into trouble this year when I was on the road forgot the cable and had to go to B and H and I found this obscure cable made by somebody who makes a music software that I thought would work got back it fit into both devices but it didn't work so proprietary cables that you can forget now that's not lassies fault that's my fault it's user error but it was one more thing that just kind of put a kink in everything and then comes along this device which is made by NAR box this is the NAR box version 2.0 I was at Sony Kondo month or so ago and I ran into two of the guys from NAR box that were at the event it was Matt the CEO and Dan who works at noir box and they both had seen my previous video and they said hey we really like what you're doing but why didn't you try in our box and the reason that I hadn't tried in our box initially this was right after the first of the year Nara Box version one had been out it was getting really hard to find and I knew they were doing their Kickstarter for the second version so it was really kind of in between versions on the whole thing but as I talked to them they were addressing some of the complaints that I had I knew they had actually watched the video they said you really should try this thing so I got the NAR box version 2 this was on a Friday had been a long week but I thought I want to run some tests anyway powered it up paired it with my iPad it was unbelievably easy to use I download their software it's like really well written better than anybody else that's done anything for both Android and Apple I mean it works on any device that you want then I ran a test I put about 10 gigabytes of footage on here I knew what how long that takes to do on the Lissie slash DJI I moved this over to the iPad wirelessly and had to double-check everything it's like significantly faster so I want to show you some things about in our box today but it's one thing to tell you that it was significantly faster it's another thing to do some tests but let's back up real quick for just a saying because I want to talk about what the gnar box is so narvik is a small lightweight weatherproof black box that has a hard drive inside in fact the hard drive to use on here is an nvme and these are found on higher end laptops it's an SSD drive they are very small and very fast you open the door on the side you pop in an SD card you close it when you power on the device it will detect the SD card and will automatically make a backup it takes it one step further and you can control the file structure that it has so if you have ever worked with Sony cameras for instance you know that if you shoot 4k video your videos are buried deep inside this massive file structure and you got to know where they're found well you can actually program NAR box just to make files for different or make folders for different kinds of file types so all of your JPEGs are in one folder all of your Raw's are in one folder all of your videos are in one folder it actually is easier to use it also runs an md5 check on the original Drive just to make sure everything copied without getting corrupted and you have a good solid backup the other thing that NAR box has is an Intel CPU it's also got a four core Intel GPU it's got removable batteries well this starts to sound like a computer and it kind of is because there's other functionality that you can do with naar box as well for instance this will automate things so let's say that you shoot video and you shoot mp4 files well it's a great codec to shoot with but it's not necessarily the smoothest thing to edit and premiere so you want to transcode your footage to something else let's say you want to transcode it to perez 4 to 2 this will actually do that so after it's backed up your footage it will actually Transco and make copies of all your video files now why is this important well that's normally something you have to come back to the studio to do you have to set up a computer to do it and it takes time to do well if you're out in the field you've just shot your video you've backed up your card you tell this to start transcoding the battery on here will last 4 to 6 hours you put this back in your bag and it's transcoding while you're on the way back to the studio so you're already saving time the automation feature alone is worth it another thing that you can automate is backups so you've already made one backup to this this actually has Dropbox functionality and this is wonderful for still shooters so if you want to make a second backup you backup your first card and you as long as this is on a Wi-Fi network it will start uploading files to Dropbox so that's gonna save you another step too and the fact that all this runs on the background on something that's not a laptop or device you have to have on and powered up you can leave it in your bag you're getting things out of the way and this is gonna free up time later this really is the Cadillac of backup devices but I also think it's kind of essential to have this in your workflow and the reason is earlier I mentioned that I'm not a big fan of letting files live on an AI patter an iPhone there's obvious things like you can just lose the device he gets stolen you leave it on an airplane but more than that it's like those devices aren't built for data management and file management so it's kind of an extra step and it becomes kludgy to do that what nar box enables me to do is actually put everything into a folder automatically then when I get back to the studio I can very quickly go into my desktop computer and get all these files onto the raid system now I can edit freely on phones or iPads or whatever but I'm not worried about those files as being final copies they're just basically edit copies and as many of you know that's another thing is storage management on these devices if you don't have a ton of storage on your iPad in kind of the real estate can get somewhat precious let's just say so you can better manage your files if that's not the only copy that's living in there in other words I'm afraid to delete these files because I haven't put them on the raid or I haven't put them on a computer yet and I don't want to lose them permanently and then you're not working anymore and that's kind of a problem so let's talk about speed for just a second because this is one of the biggest bottlenecks in this type of a workflow is getting your files from your camera to your device and this could be a ton of images it could be video depends on how hard you're pushing it how much you're shooting I shoot a lot of 4k video and I've noticed that that's where the biggest time consumption comes from in fact I'd pretty much do all of my video shooting in 4k and as I mentioned I know what this workflow is like with the lossy do it because I've spent a good part of the year with that I know that I'm going to leave that to transfer while I'm not doing anything else it's kind of a drag when you're sitting on an airplane you're ready to edit you're moving your files but I do know that it's slow the night that I got the NAR box in the mail I noticed that this was exponentially faster and so what I wanted to do was do some tests because just to tell you it's faster is one thing so what I did is I took some video files and so this is about 10 minutes of footage in fact it's exactly 10 minutes of footage because I timed it out and it's about 7.7 gigabytes now with the Lacedaemon ection so theoretically this should be faster than using Wireless well that's not and it took about 5 minutes and 10 seconds to copy 7.7 gigabytes of data or 10 minutes of footage so that's five minutes of time to copy 10 minutes of video that's significant and most projects you have a lot more than 10 minutes of video and and if you're using the lossy app you can actually see over in the corner how fast it's going and it's capping out at around 25 megabits a second if you're on a lightning port iPad this will go up to about 30 but it's still really slow either way now if we move that over and try it with the NARR box now with the NARR box you do have a Wi-Fi connection it's 5 gigahertz you connect to that and what's really cool is you save a step because you can import directly into Illuma fusion if you're using that for video editing you can also import directly into lightroom if you're using that for your images and so this example is in luma fusion and so if we go in here we select gnar box I start copying and the Wi-Fi connection which is what we're connected to took three minutes in 39 seconds so it wasn't quite half but it was significantly faster and we're comparing Wi-Fi connection to a wired connection so I'm saying the Wi-Fi on our box is better than the wired connection on the Lissie unit now because that's not really fair I'm comparing Wi-Fi even though that shouldn't have been faster what's the wired connection like now one of the cool things about NAR box is you can actually change the USB configuration in the settings so you go down and you select USB you can do USB mass transfer or you can do a USB C Ethernet connection this is really cool if you select this it's going to reboot to the entire device into USB C and then when I transfer files it's going to actually do it over the USBC cable and this took two minutes and 90 seconds wired now I think there's still a limitation it's not on Nar box's end it's on Apple's end and I don't know exactly what it is I have been told before that because this USBC cable is a powered cable that data transfer is somewhat sharing the connection with that I'm not sure what it is but it'll be interesting to see where we go forward with this but either way the naar bucks is way faster and if you don't have a cable you can do it wirelessly in just about half the time another thing that's unique to naar bucks that you don't see on any of the other devices that I've shown you is the ability to have interchangeable batteries this is really nice if you're doing a lot of work on the field or if you're traveling you don't want to bring a power cable with you you can bring extra batteries those don't have them those have to be plugged back into the wall when they die this doesn't and so what's really cool is the battery efficiency on here it's a 3000 milliamp hour battery in terms of performance you're going to get 4 to 6 hours of on time using our bucks and to charge one of these it takes probably about an hour to get at 80% two hours to get at the full hundred percent so battery efficiency is excellent on this device and another thing that I think is worth mentioning NAR box are a small company they're nowhere near the size of the competitors who make the products that I've showed you also in this video this is a huge testament not only is their software development their user interface everything is just so much more consistent so much better but they also make a product that does way more in terms of features than what the competition is offering and I think this is a huge testament to the passion that these guys have it's a small company that make likes making awesome things this last year has been pretty incredible in terms of the possibilities that have been open not only from the software level but on the hardware level of what we're able to do working in a mobile type situation is it perfect no but we're finally starting to see the realization that I think was there from day one devices like this make my job easier they enable me more time at the end of the day they enable me to be more efficient in getting the job that I need to do done and I think that is the most important thing I'm going to do some more videos on my mobile setup I know this was pretty much done with something I'm very excited about today but I want to hear from you and what you would like to see me cover so drop me a comment below I'll see you guys in the next video until then laterso yeah as you can see by the title there's been some switching going on and what I'm talking about of course is switching my editing workflow for not only stills but also video work to the iPad or iPhone and I've done a video on this and I did this back earlier this year probably in January when I actually decided that I wanted to try this whole switch thing and see how it worked and today we're gonna talk about that because over the last eight

can also import directly into lightroom if you're using that for your images and so this example is in luma fusion and so if we go in here we select gnar box I start copying and the Wi-Fi connection which is what we're connected to took three minutes in 39 seconds so it wasn't quite half but it was significantly faster and we're comparing Wi-Fi connection to a wired connection so I'm saying the Wi-Fi on our box is better than the wired connection on the Lissie unit now because that's not really fair I'm comparing Wi-Fi even though that shouldn't have been faster what's the wired connection like now one of the cool things about NAR box is you can actually change the USB configuration in the settings so you go down and you select USB you can do USB mass transfer or you can do a USB C Ethernet connection this is really cool if you select this it's going to reboot to the entire device into USB C and then when I transfer files it's going to actually do it over the USBC cable and this took two minutes and 90 seconds wired now I think there's still a limitation it's not on Nar box's end it's on Apple's end and I don't know exactly what it is I have been told before that because this USBC cable is a powered cable that data transfer is somewhat sharing the connection with that I'm not sure what it is but it'll be interesting to see where we go forward with this but either way the naar bucks is way faster and if you don't have a cable you can do it wirelessly in just about half the time another thing that's unique to naar bucks that you don't see on any of the other devices that I've shown you is the ability to have interchangeable batteries this is really nice if you're doing a lot of work on the field or if you're traveling you don't want to bring a power cable with you you can bring extra batteries those don't have them those have to be plugged back into the wall when they die this doesn't and so what's really cool is the battery efficiency on here it's a 3000 milliamp hour battery in terms of performance you're going to get 4 to 6 hours of on time using our bucks and to charge one of these it takes probably about an hour to get at 80% two hours to get at the full hundred percent so battery efficiency is excellent on this device and another thing that I think is worth mentioning NAR box are a small company they're nowhere near the size of the competitors who make the products that I've showed you also in this video this is a huge testament not only is their software development their user interface everything is just so much more consistent so much better but they also make a product that does way more in terms of features than what the competition is offering and I think this is a huge testament to the passion that these guys have it's a small company that make likes making awesome things this last year has been pretty incredible in terms of the possibilities that have been open not only from the software level but on the hardware level of what we're able to do working in a mobile type situation is it perfect no but we're finally starting to see the realization that I think was there from day one devices like this make my job easier they enable me more time at the end of the day they enable me to be more efficient in getting the job that I need to do done and I think that is the most important thing I'm going to do some more videos on my mobile setup I know this was pretty much done with something I'm very excited about today but I want to hear from you and what you would like to see me cover so drop me a comment below I'll see you guys in the next video until then later\n"
