SmallRig RC 220C Overview

Add customized RGBWC color to your productions with the compact and portable RC 220C RGB LED Monolight from SmallRig. The RC 220C is a 6.5 x 6.1 x 4.7" COB LED fixture, with a lightweight design and multiple power options.

High Brightness
The RC 220C provides a bare light output of 8680 lux at 3.3' and 5600K. Using the included reflector intensifies the output to a maximum of 51,400 lux at the same distance and color temperature. The result here is bright, even light distribution with seamless color transitions and no distortions. The RC 220C enables 36,000 color options and high color accuracy with a CRI of 97.
Lighting Effects
Built-in professional lighting features include green/magenta (G/M) adjustment, color gel mode (Rosco, LEE), HSI, and more. The RC 220C also packs creative preset lighting effects, including paparazzi, TV, faulty bulb, lightning, breathe, flickering, party, flame, fireworks, police car, CCT cycle, and color cycle.
Three Control Options
Make fast adjustments to the lighting parameters onboard or control the light using the SmallGoGo smartphone app from up to 328'. Wired DMX is also possible for those working in professional productions, which requires an optional DMX adapter. If you don't require DMX or app control, local adjustments are easy and intuitive with physical knobs and buttons, plus a convenient side screen.
Three Power Options
Power the light using the included power adapter and power cable or use separately available V-mount or NP-F batteries. The V-mount battery plate is built-in, but in order to use separately available NP-F970 batteries, users will need an optional NP-F adapter. The included power cable allows for extended reach with a generous length of 19.7'.
Mounting
The light uses a Bowens mount, so you can attach multiple separately available modifiers, such as softboxes and other light diffusing/shaping tools. The light also has a built-in receiver for optional umbrellas.
For Still & Video Productions
Portable enough to go with you to your next location, the RC 220C has a compact body that weighs only 3.9 lb. The RC 220C's GaN technology enables a 48% more compact design if compared to other COB LED lights.
