Aputure Amaran PT1C 1ft / 30cm Battery Powered RGBWW Colour LED Pixel Tube

The amaran PT1c is an ultra-portable 1-foot battery-powered pixel tube that is part of amaran’s first-ever full-colour LED pixel tube series. The Pixel Tube series is comprised of a family of 1-foot, 2-foot, and 4-foot lengths – all featuring multiple Pixel FX, RGBWW colour quality, Sidus Link app & DMX1 control, and USBC rechargeable batteries packed into their sleek & slender form factor. The amaran PT1c is a compact and versatile tube light that will unleash creativity and unlock an infinite range of
possibilities.

Outshining other lights in its class, the PT1c features 4 built-in pixels that can be independently controlled via the Sidus Link app and 7 pre-programmed Pixel FX for a variety of scenarios, in addition to 9 System FX.

As a full-colour fixture, the PT1c’s RGBWW LED chipset produces stellar color quality and accurate skin tones throughout its CCT range of 2,700K to 10,000K with full green-magenta control, achieving high CRI [95], TLCI [98], and SSI values across the board, with an SSI (Tungsten) of 85 and SSI (D56) of 75.

Complementing its sleek, portable T12 form factor, the PT1c is powered by a removable 9.6Wh Lithium-ion battery for up to 70 minutes of maximum output.

For enhanced versatility, the PT1c’s multi-faceted endcaps not only feature built-in magnets but also include 180° rotatability to ensure that it is always in the perfect position.

In addition to magnetized endcaps, the PT1c features a 3/8-16in threaded mount on each end of the light, for mounting the light on friction arms and light stands when magnets aren’t an option. The possibilities are endless, with the ability to use splicing connectors2 to arrange the tubes in multiple 3D shapes, like with the amaran T2c/T4c.

The PT1c can be controlled from the new interface on the back of the tube, featuring the latest UI, or via the Sidus Link Bluetooth app that powers the rest of the Aputure and amaran product lines. This ultra-capable application can control all the lights in the scene, activate stunning lighting effects, and ensure that the Pixel Tubes are always up to date. For more advanced console controls, a Wired USB-C to 5-Pin XLR In & Out DMX Dongle1 unlocks DMX control for the entire Pixel Tube product line, like the amaran T2c/T4c and F-Series products.

Combining layers of functionality, battery power, high-quality colour, and a high transmittance diffuser that produces a wide 180° beam angle, the most portable Pixel Tube from amaran will shine as an effect, fill, eye light, and so much more. Lastly, for that extra touch of lighting control, the 45º Fabric Light Control Grid3 will hone the quality of the light to perfection

The amaran PT1c is ideal for filmmakers and creators who need a portable, battery-powered tube light that is capable of unique pixel effects but do not need the ultra-high pixel density, ultra-thin bezels, and LumenRadio CRMX available in the Aputure MT Pro.

Users who require a portable and versatile LED pixel tube will find the amaran PT1c extremely convenient as it measures in at only 1 foot and can charge up in under 2 hours with a standard 5V/2A USB-C charger. Additionally, to unlock its potential, users only need the free Sidus Link mobile app to wirelessly control it and activate Pixel FX and Pixel Control.

Its simple design also makes it ideal for filmmakers who prefer no-hassle mounting solutions, as its magnetic endcaps can rotate for perfect positioning, and its industry-standard 3/8-16in threads are easy to rig from articulating arms and light stands. With easy-to-use mounting options, the PT1c can be used anywhere from on top of the camera to hide in plain sight.

Particularly for creators who want more unique FX or who specialize in product cinematography and photography, the PT1c’s multiple pixels is one of its standout features, compared to other options in its class. Each of the PT1c’s 4 pixels can be independently controlled and assigned HSI values via Sidus Link or DMX with the USB-C to DMX Adapter with USB-C Input (sold separately).

Its compact build, mounting options, multiple pixels, and Sidus Link app control make the PT1c a great small form-factor light for any filmmaker or content creator's toolkit.
