Designed for Creators



The PT1c shines as an effects, fill, eye light, and so much more. Whether used for practical lighting backgrounds, producing unique lighting effects for long-exposure photography, creating linear reflections over intricate sets for product cinematography, or adding visual interest to stylized music videos and commercials, the PT1c grants you the freedom to get creative and bring your lighting designs to life.

Perfect Pixel Capabilities



With 4 lighting zones that can be independently controlled, the PT1c’s pixel capabilities introduce new and exciting avenues to the amaran family and outshine other lights with a new layer of effects. Use its 7 pre-programmed Pixel FX to create some truly unique and dynamic pixelated effects across its multiple pixels and take your creations to the next level.

Color Accurate



amaran consistently delivers stellar color quality with its RGBWW LED chipset, and the Pixel Tubes are no different. Adjust the hue, saturation, and intensity of your pixel light with white point CCT tunability from 2,700K to 10,000K with full plus/minus green controls. And with a CRI of 95, TLCI of 98, and Tungsten SSI of 85, you can be sure that the Pixel Tubes will elevate your productions with accurate colors.

Built-in Batteries



The PT1c is powered by a removable 9.6Wh Lithium-ion battery for up to 70 minutes of run time, and can be charged via USB-C for absolute ease of use. Unlike the high-capacity battery grips of the amaran T2c and amaran T4c, the integrated batteries can improve your workflow on-set by granting you the flexibility of placing or hiding the LED Pixel Tubes virtually anywhere.

Ready-Made Mounting Solutions



For enhanced versatility, the PT1c’s rotatable end caps can be independently swiveled with 180 degrees of rotation to ensure that it is always in the perfect position. And with built-in magnets and integrated 3/8-16in screw threads on each end cap, creating interesting visuals and set pieces have never been easier.

Advanced Controls



With the power of the Sidus Link Bluetooth app, you can control all of your Aputure and amaran lights in a scene, activate stunning lighting effects, and ensure that the Pixel Tubes are always up to date. For more advanced console controls, the new amaran USB-C to DMX Adapter* unlocks DMX control while simultaneously charging your pixelated tube light, making your workflow even more efficient and seamless.

* amaran Type-C to DMX Adapter with Type-C Input sold separately.

Control Your Creations



For creators who want an extra touch of lighting control and to eliminate spill from the PT1c, you can attach a collapsible 45º light control grid* via hook-and-loop straps to hone the quality of the light to perfection. The Pixel Tubes can also be left bare with its wide 180° beam angle, giving you more coverage in your shot design.
