Nanlite PavoTube II 15C RGB LED Tube Light (2')
The second-generation PavoTube II 15C 2-Light Kit from Nanlite adds to their range of LED tube lights and includes two adaptable 2' fixtures with power supplies and mounting accessories. The PavoTube II 15C produces remarkable color accuracy with a larger color temperature range from 2700 to 7500K, as demonstrated by its CRI and TLCI scores of 97 and 98, at over 423 lux at 3.3' (5600K) for each light. Filmmakers and content producers that need to put up lighting in a studio or on location should use these tube lights. They can be used as key, fill, backlights, or for in-camera practical effects. They have a dimming range of 0 to 100% and 15 preprogrammed special lighting effects.
There are numerous enhancements, such as quicker charging via the supplied AC adapters or a USB-C port on the back of each fixture, seamless diffusion, a green-magenta shift of +/-150, Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz for wireless control, DMX/RDM capability, and smaller endcaps to reduce distractions on your frame. A built-in rechargeable battery within the PavoTube II 15C allows it to operate at 100% brightness for up to 2 hours. The light may run on optional external batteries or the provided multi-voltage AC adapters to provide universal power. This package includes two clips with 1/4"-20 mounting, four steel safety wires for hanging, a cushioned carry bag for storage, and a T12 compatible with 1.9" diameter.
Seamless Light
The PavoTube II 15C's enhanced internal diffusion, designed for greater illumination regions, hides the individual LED diodes to produce a seamless light source that seems appealing in-frame and smoother on reflective surfaces when applied out-of-frame.
Accurate Color
With a CRI of 97 and a TLCI of 98, the PavoTube II 15C allows you to shoot with confidence knowing that the color reproduction will be accurate. Furthermore, it boasts TM-30 scores of RF 94 and RG 101 for a more thorough analysis of color rendering. The light you see will be correct regardless of how bright or dim it is across all CCTs. In addition to color fidelity, the light has 15 customisable preprogrammed effects that may be saved as presets with the use of the free NANLINK app.
Green-Magenta Adjustment
The ability to change the green-to-magenta shift for color correction can be particularly useful when shooting scenarios where you need to match other light sources or produce a specific appearance. You can adjust the color by +/- 150 using the PavoTube II 15C's function to get there.
AC Power & Battery Advancements
The built-in battery of the lamp recharges 1 hour and 10 minutes quicker than in earlier models. You may power it continuously by attaching the included AC adapters to the endcap of the PavoTube II 15C or charging it using the USB-C port on the back of the fixture. Also, it allows you to use D-tap batteries using the separately sold CB-DT/DC cable.
- Battery life of up to two hours at maximum brightness
- 4 hours maximum at 50% brightness
- 9.5 hours at 10% brightness is possible.
- 14 hours maximum at 1% brightness
App Control, DMX, and Onboard
- The PavoTube II 15C has two onboard buttons and knobs for accurate and simple local control, as well as an OLED display for convenience, but the light may also be controlled remotely.
- The free NANLINK app for iOS and Android enables complete Bluetooth light control from your smartphone.
- You can utilize the optionally available WS-RC-C2 handheld remote or the WS-TB-1 transmitter box for larger deployments thanks to built-in 2.4 GHz technology.
- With the optionally available CB-DMX-3.5C-1/2 adapter cable, locking DMX/RDM ports offer extensive control and enable the PavoTube II 15C to be rapidly integrated into any DMX-controlled system.
Portable & Lightweight
The PavoTube II 15C is versatile and portable, bright enough for a variety of uses, and small enough to fit in small locations or even be hidden behind items without reaching the frame. The 1.9 lb weight of each 2' long tube light makes it a portable illumination option.
Additional Benefits & Refinements
- The new design calls for fabric barndoors and grid attachments that are separately available.
- Lock button stops unintentional setting alterations.
- Recessed front-facing power switch prevents accidental activation.
- With the separately obtainable LSFLT12MII foldable floor stand, it may stand vertically.
- A USB port permits firmware upgrades
