Nanlite PavoTube II 30C RGB LED Tube Light
Nanlite expands their LED tube light line with the second-generation PavoTube II 30C 2-Light Kit, featuring two versatile 4′ fixtures with power supplies and mounting accessories. At over 647 lux at 3.3′ (5600K) for each light, the PavoTube II 30C delivers exceptional color accuracy with a wider color temperature range from 2700 to 7500K, as shown by its CRI and TLCI scores of 97 and 98. These tube lights are ideal for filmmakers and content creators setting up lighting in the studio or on location. With 0 to 100% dimming and 15 preprogrammed special lighting effects, they can be used as key, fill, backlights, or for in-camera practical effects.
Multiple improvements include faster recharging via included AC adapters or a USB-C port on the back of each fixture, seamless diffusion, green-magenta shift by +/- 150, Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz for wireless control, DMX/RDM capability, and smaller endcaps to minimize distractions on your frame. The PavoTube II 30C has a built-in rechargeable battery that will give you up to 2.5 hours of battery life at 100% brightness. The light also offers universal power capability via included multi-voltage AC adapters or runs on optional external batteries. T12 compatible with a 1.9″ diameter, this kit comes with two clips equipped with 1/4″-20 mounts, four steel safety wires for hanging, and a padded carry bag for storage and transport.
Seamless Light
Developed for larger illumination areas, the PavoTube II 30C’s improved internal diffusion obscures the individual LED diodes to create a seamless light source that looks compelling in-frame as well as smoother on reflective surfaces when applied out-of-frame.
Accurate Color
The PavoTube II 30C features a CRI of 97 and a TLCI of 98, meaning you can shoot with confidence knowing the color reproduction will be precise. For a more detailed perspective on color rendering, it also has TM-30 scores of RF 94 and RG 101. No matter how bright or dimmed, the light you see will remain accurate across any CCT. Besides color accuracy, the light is equipped with 15 preprogrammed customizable effects that can be saved as presets using the free NANLINK app.
Green-Magenta Adjustment
In shooting situations where you need to match other light sources or achieve a specific look, it can be extremely helpful to adjust the green-to-magenta shift for color correction. With this PavoTube II 30C’s feature you can tweak the color by +/- 150 to get there.
AC Power & Battery Advancements
The light’s built-in battery recharges 43 minutes faster than previous generations. You can charge it using the USB-C port on the back of the fixture or connect the included AC adapters to the PavoTube II 30C’s endcap for continuous power. It also gives you the possibility of using D-tap batteries with the separately available CB-DT/DC cable.
