Nanlite PavoTube 30C 4 ft RGBW LED Tube with Internal Battery

Portable, Powerful, and Colorful Lighting Innovation

The Nanlite PavoTube 30C is a 4-foot RGBW LED tube light that offers professional-grade lighting performance paired with ultimate portability and versatility. Designed for photographers, videographers, filmmakers, and content creators, this sleek tube brings infinite creative possibilities with its broad color range, adjustable brightness, built-in rechargeable battery, and multiple mounting options, all packed within a durable and lightweight form factor.

Long and Versatile 4 ft Tube Design

Measuring 4 feet in length and featuring a slim 1.9-inch diameter, the PavoTube 30C fits unobtrusively into complex and constrained setups including automotive interiors, narrow corners, sets with limited space, and on-location shoots. Its long shape creates smooth, even illumination for backgrounds, accents, or stylized highlights. It is also popular for creative effects like neon-style glows and chromatic light borders.

Wide Color Temperature and Full RGB Control

The PavoTube 30C supports an impressive color temperature range from 2700K warm amber light to 7500K crisp daylight, providing customizable white light tailored precisely for ambient conditions or creative intent.

Beyond white LED output, it houses RGB LEDs that offer access to the full 360-degree color spectrum, enabling expansive creative expression. Red, green, and blue LEDs mix to produce vivid colors and gradients with precise hue, saturation, and brightness control, opening doors for dynamic cinematic moods, mood lighting, or accentuated atmosphere.

Powerful and Accurate Output

Despite its compact diameter, the tube produces up to 647 lux (approximately 60 foot-candles) at a 1-meter distance in daylight white mode (5600K). This output is bright enough for a wide variety of video and photo situations, from key and fill lighting to dramatic rim light accents.

With a high Color Rendering Index (CRI) of 97 and a Television Lighting Consistency Index (TLCI) of 98, the PavoTube 30C guarantees color fidelity and skin tone accuracy at any brightness level or color setting. This makes it reliable for professional-grade video production, photography, live streaming, and filmwork.

Internal Rechargeable Battery for True Portability

The internal 4400mAh lithium-ion battery delivers around 2.5 hours of runtime at full power (100% brightness), 5 hours at 50%, and up to 29 hours at very low intensity (1-10%). This capability enables extended handheld or remote use without tethering to power outlets. Charging is efficient and flexible, featuring USB-C PD 3.0 fast charging or included AC adapter.

This independence from cables makes the PavoTube ideal for run-and-gun scenarios, guerrilla filmmaking, event coverage, or any situation where mobility is crucial.

Multiple Control and Connectivity Options

The PavoTube 30C integrates various control interfaces, allowing users to make adjustments easily and remotely:

• Onboard controls with two accessible knobs and OLED screen for brightness and color temperature

• Bluetooth connectivity to interface with the free Nanlink mobile app for iOS and Android, providing app-based control over color, effects, and grouping

• 2.4G wireless support for remote triggering or use with transmitter boxes

• Locking DMX/RDM port for professional lighting control network compatibility, ideal for studios and larger productions

Creative Lighting Effects

Nanlite bundles the PavoTube 30C with 15 preset lighting effects such as fire, lightning, police sirens, fireworks, and more, simplifying complex visual storytelling. These effects can be fine-tuned via app or onboard controls to enhance dramatic narratives or thematic ambience in films, music videos, and events.

Robust Build and Mounting Accessories

The tube is constructed from durable materials with a hard plastic diffuser that softens light output while obscuring individual LEDs, creating a seamless glow on camera and in reflections. The standard T12 tube diameter ensures compatibility with an ecosystem of Nanlite accessories, mounting adapters, and modifiers.

Included with the light are steel safety wires for secure hanging and transparent mounting clips featuring 1/4"-20 threaded holes, facilitating integration with tripods, clamps, and rigging systems. The padded carrying case protects the light during transport, making it a ready-to-go solution for professionals on the move.

Ideal Use Cases

• Ambient and accent lighting on film and television sets

• Mobile and location lighting with uncompromised portability

• Tabletop live streaming and videography

• Automotive and small space creative lighting effects

• Studio lighting augmentation with color control and versatile diffusion
