The Luxli Taiko is now a part of the Luxli Orchestra series, which includes the Viola, Cello, and Timpani. The Taiko is named after type of Japanese drum, keeping the musical instrument naming scheme. Although you can consider the Taiko equivalent to two Timpani lights, that would be a mistake because the Taiko is more than twice as bright as the Timpani. The Taiko is well built, and lessons learned from the introduction of the Timpani have been applied to the Taiko, so it is more use-friendly right out of the box. These improvements include the locking lever and the channel for adjusting the height of the yoke on the light. Please note that although the Taiko is named after a Japanese drum, it, like the other lights in the orchestra series, is designed and manufactured in Norway and not made in China.
LED soft lights abound, and they have come a long way since the early days when they were little more than an array of LED emitters in a punched metal Chassis, and you essentially had to make a choice between brightness and color reproduction. But time marches on, and LEDs have undergone a stunning amount of development. There was a time where having a bi-color light (variable between tungsten and daylight) meant that the fixture had half tungsten and half daylight-balanced LEDs and, to get the brightest light, you would have to shoot at about 4300K. Improvements in LED technology have come a long way to creating a better light source, with richer color reproduction, more adjustability, and color-matching capability.
