Featuring an extremely bright color output, this RC 120D Travel Kit from SmallRig is suitable for both still and video work.

It features a daylight-balanced 5600K color temperature for exterior and interior shoots with available color correction filter media.

Power the fixture using the included AC/DC power supply or a user-supplied 14.4V/26V battery using an optional D-Tap to 3-pin XLR power cord. The integrated cooling fan turns on automatically to prevent the light from overheating, and at 27db the fan is quieter than a refrigerator or most whispers. Featuring nine-effects modes for creative lighting effects, the fixture can be used for a variety of dramatic effects. For adding softboxes and other light diffusing/shaping tools, the fixture is compatible with Bowens light-control accessories. An integrated display screen allows you to see the lights settings at a glance, while for adjustments you can control the light locally or via the SmallGoGo app, which provides wireless control over your fixture from up to 330' away. This kit includes a reflector and a bag for extended output and portability.
