The amaran PT2c is a 2-foot battery-powered pixel tube that is part of amaran’s first-ever full-color 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 color quality, Sidus Link app & DMX1 control, and USB-C rechargeable batteries packed into their sleek & slender form factor. At 2 feet in length, the amaran PT2c is an intuitive, mid-sized multitool and versatile tube light that expands creativity and opens a world of colorful possibilities.
For greater control and color chasing capabilities, the PT2c features 8 built-in pixels that can be independently adjusted 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-color fixture, the PT2c’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.
Inside its sleek T12 form factor, the PT2c is powered by a 38.5Wh internal lithium-ion battery for up to 170 minutes of maximum output. By utilizing a ubiquitous USB-C port, the PT2c can be easily charged, and can even fast charge at 20W using USB-C PD to reach full capacity in under 3 hours.
Complementing its simple design, each PT2c comes with two clear, 3/8- 16in threaded magnetic T12 brackets to make mounting as easy as possible. Use the magnets to attach the pixel tube to ferromagnetic surfaces or add a 3/8-16in spigot or baby pin to mount it to a light stand. The clear design of the brackets ensure that the mounting solutions do not interfere with the quality or output of the light.
For additional mounting options, each endcap houses a 3/8-16in threaded mount. 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 PT2c 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 color, and a high transmittance diffuser that produces a wide 180° beam angle, the versatile mid-sized Pixel Tube from amaran shines as an effects, fill, accent 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.
