After the successful debut of the PavoTube II X LED pixel tube light, Nanlite introduced the PavoTube II XR, a next-generation evolution that builds on the X-Series foundation by incorporating LumenRadio CRMX wireless DMX control. This added functionality allows the PavoTube II XR to seamlessly integrate into advanced film and commercial lighting setups, unlocking new levels of wireless precision and creative flexibility for production teams. Whether in large-scale studio shoots or mobile commercial environments, the PavoTube II X and XR empower creators to harness the full potential of pixel control in their visual storytelling.
Available in three lengths—15XR (2'), 30XR (4'), and 60XR (8')—the PavoTube II X/XR series offers scalable lighting solutions tailored to a wide range of production needs. From compact, handheld versatility to dramatic, expansive washes of color and movement, these LED pixel tubes inspire infinite creativity. Each model combines RGBWW lighting with individually addressable pixels, enabling dynamic, animated effects that bring scenes to life with rich detail and cinematic flair.
Designed with intuitive control at its core, the PavoTube II X/XR features an onboard interface enhanced by the NANLINK App, giving users access to wireless control via Bluetooth and 2.4G, as well as wired DMX/RDM for professional workflows. The XR variants stand out further with built-in CRMX, streamlining compatibility with industry-standard wireless control systems. Whether using mobile devices or lighting consoles, creators can effortlessly fine-tune every aspect of their setup.
Performance meets portability with internal lithium-ion batteries, allowing each model to operate completely wire-free. The 15XR runs for 1 hour and 26 minutes, the 30XR for 1 hour and 36 minutes, and the 60XR for 1 hour and 57 minutes at full brightness. Each unit recharges fully in a few hours and can also be powered continuously via the included AC adapters, making them suitable for both mobile and long-format productions.
The pixel engine inside the PavoTube II X/XR series unleashes a wide array of both practical and artistic effects. With up to 10 pixel-based effects such as Hue Loop, Scrolling, Flame, Rainbow, and Driving, alongside 15 cinematic lighting simulations like Police Car, TV, Paparazzi, and Explosion, creators can craft immersive visual environments without needing external consoles. All effects are customizable, with adjustable parameters for color, intensity, and animation speed to match the desired mood or scene.
Durability and flexibility are also central to the PavoTube II X/XR design. Each tube is housed in a reinforced metal shell with an octagonal shape that prevents rolling and enables multi-angle placement. Integrated ¼-20" mounting points provide ample installation options for grip equipment, stands, or rigging onto sets, while the robust construction ensures they can withstand the demands of professional use.
With an expanded color temperature range from 2700K to 12000K and green/magenta shift control, the PavoTube II X/XR delivers precise white balancing for every shooting condition. High color accuracy is guaranteed, with a CRI of 97 and TLCI of 98 across all models. Combined with full-spectrum RGB control and smooth 0–100% dimming, these fixtures deliver studio-grade performance in a rugged, portable format.
Whether lighting a dramatic film scene, enhancing a commercial product shoot, or adding expressive ambiance to a live event, the Nanlite PavoTube II X/XR series stands out as a powerful, flexible, and fully integrated lighting solution built for the modern creator.
