Your environment may dictate the range though so be sure that you test it out ahead of time so that you don’t hit a “dead zone.” According to the specification, you can use the Spotlight up to 30 meters/100 feet away. Lastly, I want to talk about the range of the presenter. There is nothing worse than having your computer go to sleep and then have to go and enter a password while you are mid-presentation! Another nice thing about the Logitech Spotlight is that by using it, it will keep your computer awake and prevent it from sleeping during a presentation. They advance slides or pages (like in a PDF document in “presentation” mode.) It’s pretty much, as I said, like clicking a mouse. The Next and Back buttons act as you would expect. I don’t have a screenshot of this but you would use this, I would think, in scenarios where you want all of the text on the screen to be visible yet still draw attention to something in particular. The Circle option works in much the same way as the other two, but it doesn’t magnify or highlight things. The best thing about the Logitech Spotlight is the enhanced features it provides when presenting. However, you can have limited functionality by not having the software installed, although I wouldn’t recommend that approach. Remember, you get more functionality with the companion software installed and running.

If you are connecting via Bluetooth, the process is the same (except you obviously don’t need to insert the dongle). You can do that by just pressing and holding the main button. Once the dongle is inserted into your computer, you need to connect the Spotlight. It will simply work on the screen much the same way a mouse does (which makes sense since Logitech is an industry-leader in mouse technology and probably took many of their learnings to apply it to the Spotlight). You can use it to showcase designs, documents, websites, whatever you want.

Using the Logitech Spotlight PresenterĪs I mentioned, you are not confined to just using the Logitech Spotlight with a presentation. I believe Logitech kept the settings for the Spotlight simple and straightforward in order for you to quickly configure and get to presenting. That is pretty much all of the options available. There are some other advanced settings you can tweak as well, and from the settings screen, you can see the status of the Spotlight’s battery (assuming it is on and connected).
