The Nanlite PavoTube II 30XR 4KIT delivers four 4-foot RGBWW LED pixel tubes designed for filmmakers and creators who need flexible, portable studio-quality lighting. These tubes combine full-spectrum color control, pixel-based effects, and built-in CRMX LumenRadio wireless DMX in a robust metal housing. The kit ships with accessories and a padded carrying bag for on-location use.
The PavoTube II 30XR offers a wide color temperature range from 2700K to 12000K and includes green-to-magenta adjustment for precise color correction. In addition to CCT control, it provides full RGB hue and saturation control to create any color you need. The tubes average a CRI of 97 and a TLCI of 98, ensuring accurate color rendering for video and photography.
For control, the tubes support multiple options. They include built-in CRMX LumenRadio wireless DMX on XR models. You can also use wireless 2.4 GHz control or Bluetooth via the free NANLINK mobile app for iOS and Android. Additionally, the series is DMX compatible for wired control setups.
The PavoTube II 30XR includes pixel-based special effects plus a range of practical effects. A pixel density of 16 enables detailed animated looks and smooth color transitions. Use the pixel effects to create dynamic motion across the tube, or select practical effects for more traditional on-camera lighting cues.
Nanlite refined the X-Series design based on user feedback. The PavoTube II 30XR delivers brighter output and more uniform diffusion compared to earlier models. Its upgraded control panel features locking buttons to prevent accidental changes during shoots. The housing is made from metal for increased durability, and three integrated 1/4"-20 receivers expand mounting and rigging options.
The PavoTube II 30XR includes an internal 4400mAh Li-ion battery. At full brightness, a tube runs untethered for approximately 1 hour and 36 minutes. You can fully recharge the battery in about 3 hours and 30 minutes using the included AC adapter. For longer shoots, the AC adapter can also power the tube continuously while charging or operating the light.
