I found neither, but did come across something potentially useful.

This ring light and the Meike FC-100 have identical button layouts on the control unit with differences in power indicators (reminds me of YN-560 indicator vs YN-565EX indicator.) Both have adapter rings (8 vs 7), both have GN 15 and both use 4xAA batteries.

There is a difference in number of diodes (leds?), 48 on the Travor vs 32 on the Meike.

If you’re looking to buy this, it might be worth doing a search for reviews/comments on the Meike FC-100 to give you more of an idea.

My 2 cents.
