Nanlite Nanlink WS-TB1 Transmitter Box

NANLINK WS-TB-1 Transmitter Box – Wireless Bluetooth and 2.4Ghz control for Nanlite lights

What the NANLINK WS-TB-1 does

The NANLINK WS-TB-1 Transmitter Box lets you wirelessly control Nanlite fixtures from the NANLINK mobile app, whether or not the fixtures have built-in Bluetooth. It communicates over both Bluetooth and 2.4Ghz, so you can manage multiple lights remotely and group them for synchronized control.

Mobile app control and creative features

Use the free NANLINK mobile app to access detailed control of color temperature, HSI, and built-in effects. The app helps you create repeatable scenes and save presets. Moreover, you can arrange lights into groups, synchronize effects across fixtures, and fine-tune dimming and color settings. The app also includes a camera-based color picker: take a photo with your mobile device and tap a color in the image to send that color instantly to compatible RGB lights.

Power options for field and studio use

The WS-TB-1 includes a built-in 2400 mHz battery that can run the unit continuously for 10 hours. In addition, the transmitter has an integrated USB-C port. You can use that port to install future firmware updates, to power the unit in the field from a USB powerbank, or to connect it to an AC outlet so it can run continuously while charging the internal battery.

Compact design and flexible mounting

The device was designed to be compact and lightweight while still delivering extended battery life and a robust control signal. An internal antenna system helps ensure reliable performance without increasing the unit’s size. For mounting, the WS-TB-1 offers multiple options: a bottom 1/4-20 socket, a side belt-clip, and an integrated ring in the chassis. The included padded travel case adds convenience with a belt loop and a carabiner clip for transport.
