Nanlite PavoTube 15C 2 ft RGBW LED Tube with Internal Battery 4 Light Kit

Powerful and Portable Lighting for Creative Professionals

The Nanlite PavoTube 15C 2 ft RGBW LED Tube 4 Light Kit is a comprehensive lighting solution crafted for modern photographers, videographers, broadcasters, and content creators who demand versatile, high-quality, and portable lighting gear. Featuring four compact yet powerful 2-foot LED tubes, this kit combines superior color accuracy, tunable color temperature, and innovative control options for an adaptable lighting experience, whether on the move or in the studio.

Compact and Robust Build Quality

Each PavoTube 15C tube measures 2 feet (770mm) in length with a 1.9-inch diameter designed to be T12 compatible for flexibility in mounting and placement. The octagonal end caps allow the tubes to stand on surfaces at various angles, adding to their versatility on shoots. Lightweight and highly durable materials enhance portable use and ease rigging in tight environments such as vehicles, studios, or tight sets. Diffusion materials inside obscure individual LED beads, resulting in a smooth, seamless light output that is flattering for video and photo applications.

The kit includes essential accessories: four robust mounting clips with 1/4”-20 threaded receivers, eight steel safety wires for secure suspensions, three master-slave sync cords for chaining lights, two power cords, AC adapters, and a padded carry bag for storage and transport.

Exceptional Color Range and Accuracy

The PavoTube 15C employs advanced RGBWW color mixing technology allowing the light to simulate nearly any color or white light temperature across an expanded range of 2700K to 7500K. This range enables users to match the ambient light perfectly or creatively tweak color temperature and hue for stylistic effects. The inclusion of green-magenta adjustment (±150) further refines color balancing capabilities to match other lighting conditions seamlessly.

High Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 98 and Television Lighting Consistency Index (TLCI) of 95 guarantee natural skin tones and true color reproduction. These indicators ensure that colors remain accurate at any brightness level or color temperature, vital in high-end photography, film, and live broadcast work.

Brightness, Lighting Modes, and Dimming

Each 15C tube outputs approximately 1400 lumens with an illuminance of about 352 lux at 1 meter at 5600K. This output is brightness-optimized for multiple roles ranging from key lights to accent or fill lights. The tubes allow smooth, flicker-free dimming from 0 to 100%, providing precise exposure control and mood setting with minimal hassle.

In addition, the 15C series includes up to 15 pre-programmed special lighting effects such as candlelight flicker, emergency vehicle lights, lightning, and paparazzi flashes, enabling filmmakers and content creators to add dynamic illumination and narrative depth effortlessly.

Control and Connectivity

The PavoTube 15C series features an upgraded control system composed of a dual rotary knob and a button, allowing fast and intuitive adjustments directly on the light. An OLED display shows clear settings and adjustments to facilitate quick changes during production.

The kit supports wireless connectivity through Bluetooth for use with the proprietary Nanlink smartphone app (available on iOS and Android), enabling remote control and multi-light group synchronization. Additionally, 2.4 GHz wireless and DMX/RDM compatibility further extend control options for complex stage setups or coordinated lighting designs.

Power and Runtime

Each tube contains a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery with a capacity sufficient for approximately 2.2 hours of continuous operation at full power. Tubes can be charged via the included AC adapters or USB-C Power Delivery ports. The ability to use the tubes while charging reduces downtime during shoots.

Optional external battery packs with D-Tap can also be connected to extend runtime and provide additional power adaptability. The combination of battery and AC power options makes the PavoTube 15C kit functional in various environments, from studios to remote locations.
