amaran F21C Overview

The 2 x 1' F21c RGBWW LED Mat from amaran is powerful, versatile, and flexible. Featuring powerful output and color rendering, it is suitable for filmmakers, videographers, content creators, and still photographers. It provides 100W of power with RGBWW LEDs for complete color control and adjustable CCT from 2500 to 7500K to provide endless possibilities for creative lighting. The 360° HSI control, 46 color gel presets, and 15 unique lighting effects provide even more ways to customize your lighting.

The included foldable softbox has two strengths of diffusion, and the grid has integrated hook-and-loop fabric for using the mat as an ultrathin soft light that will add controlled ambience to a scene.

The control box is a multi-voltage AC power supply that features a V-mount plate for use with compatible 14.4V, 26V, or 28.8V batteries. Full output can be achieved when using the AC power supply and using batteries allows the F21c to be used at either half or full power, depending on battery strength.

The mat can also be controlled using DMX with a separately available USB-C to 5-Pin DMX512 in & out adapter cable, adding professional-level control to an individual unit or groups of lights. The amaran F21c is ideal for videographers who need a versatile and literally flexible lighting solution. The RGBWW flexible panel offers unmatched strength and control over a wide, expanded CCT range to match a variety of white light environments.

F21c Slaps

Disappointing quality, cumbersome setup

By Alex

The actual panel itself is great, but the power supply and mounting bracket are total junk. Plastic power connectors that are flimsy right out of the box. The mounting bracket is laughably bad - it's a cheap metal that deforms as soon as you set it up. The power supply requires connecting multiple power bricks together, and is quite cumbersome. As others have said, there are a lot of parts you have to assemble to get this light up and running, which defeats the purpose of a lightweight flexible panel. This is definitely not for any sort of travel or location work. If you're going to keep it in a studio, it would probably be fine, but otherwise it's just more disposable tech with a short lifespan. Really disappointed.
