Nanlite Bouncer with Suction Cup for Light Bulb

Nanlite PavoBulb Bouncer with Suction Cup – Controls Lampshade Spill with Adjustable Aperture

The Nanlite PavoBulb Bouncer with Suction Cup is a compact light modifier that attaches directly to the dome of a PavoBulb 10C to limit and shape the light coming from the bulb. It features an adjustable aperture that increases or decreases how much light passes through, helping you manage unwanted spill from the top of a lampshade.

Designed for use with PavoBulb

This accessory specifically mounts on the dome of a PavoBulb 10C. When you place a PavoBulb inside a standard lampshade, the top opening can let light spill onto the ceiling or nearby walls. The Bouncer provides a targeted solution for that situation, allowing you to adjust the output and achieve a more natural-looking ceiling and wall illumination.

Key features

• For PavoBulb LED Light Bulb — Attaches to the bulb dome to work with Nanlite’s PavoBulb models, including the PavoBulb 10C.
• Controls Spill — Limits unwanted light escaping from the top of a lampshade and reduces uneven illumination on ceilings and walls.
• Adjustable Aperture — Lets you increase or decrease the amount of light that passes through for simple, on-the-fly control.

How the adjustable aperture helps

The Bouncer’s adjustable aperture gives you a quick way to fine-tune how much light exits through the top of a lampshade. By opening the aperture you allow more light to pass; by closing it you reduce spill. Consequently, you can balance the room’s look without changing bulb settings or moving the fixture.

Simple installation and practical use

The unit attaches with a suction cup for fast mounting and removal. Because it fixes to the bulb dome, you avoid more time-consuming alternatives. For example, instead of rigging black wrap or other makeshift blockers into place, you simply position the Bouncer and adjust the aperture as needed. This makes setup and breakdown quicker and cleaner.

Typical use cases

1. Control light spill from lampshades to avoid uneven ceiling or wall highlights.
2. Fine-tune room illumination when using a PavoBulb in domestic or production environments.
3. Replace temporary fixes like black wrap with a purpose-built accessory for consistent results.
