Soft Touch Lighting for Any Scene
The PavoTube II 6XR uses NANLITE’s RGBWW colour mixing to deliver beautifully soft, even illumination. Its custom diffuser helps the light wrap gently around faces and objects, giving you a flattering look for portraits, close-ups and product work. Despite its small size, it provides impressive output and works well both as a key light in tight spaces or as a practical light on medium to large sets.
Optimised White-Light Accuracy
Nanlite’s advanced RGBWW technology allows the 6XR to reproduce a wide range of white-light sources with exceptional accuracy. This results in consistent, natural colour reproduction, which is especially important when matching multiple lighting fixtures or delivering reliable results on professional productions.
Flowing Light with Eight Controllable Pixels
With eight individually programmable pixels, the 6XR can create smooth, dynamic lighting effects that add movement and atmosphere to your scenes. You can adjust pixel behaviour on the unit or through the NANLINK App, and the addition of DMX/RDM and CRMX gives you the power to build fully customised effects for high-end lighting setups.
Versatile Lighting, Limitless Creativity
Choose from CCT, HSI, gels, classic effects and pixel effects to shape the look and feel of your shoot. The 10 built-in pixel effects create flowing patterns and colour transitions, ideal for music videos, interviews, stylised scenes and creative short-form content. Whether you need subtle tonal shifts or bold RGB movement, the 6XR adapts effortlessly.
Delicate Design, Easy Setup
Weighing just 0.27kg and built to a standard T12 size, the 6XR is easy to handle and mount. The polygonal back prevents rolling, and strong magnets at both ends let you attach it directly to metal surfaces. For non-magnetic locations, the included iron plates allow quick and simple attachment.
Multiple Control Options
The PavoTube II 6XR fits smoothly into any lighting workflow. Operate it directly on the fixture, through the NANLINK App 2.0, via DMX/RDM, or using LumenRadio CRMX for robust wireless control. Whether you’re on a film set, livestream, event stage or in a small studio, the 6XR offers the right control method for every scenario.
Flexible Power Supply
The built-in 3200mAh battery means you can work cable-free wherever you are. The USB-C port accepts a wide range of input voltages and supports PD 3.0 charging for fast top-ups between shots. You can also power the tube using the optional NP-F550 battery grip, and in the 8-Light Kit, the case can charge all tubes simultaneously through the built-in electronic contacts.
Compatible with 6C Accessories
The 6XR works with the accessory range from the PavoTube II 6C, including modifiers, clamps, waterproofing solutions, cables and more. If you already own 6C accessories, you can continue using them without buying new versions, making your setup more efficient and economical.
8-Light Kit Option
For larger productions, the dedicated 8-Light Kit offers eight fixtures, modifiers, mounts and a rugged IP67 Gutek T-230 case that is shockproof, flame retardant and designed for travel. The case keeps everything organised and allows all eight tubes to charge simultaneously via AC, V-mount battery or PD power. It is a complete, portable multi-light system for professional crews.
