Finally, groups of color spikes can be controlled together from the app to create more complex set-ups, and users can determine brightness, color and pulsation patterns via the app or the interface on the panel itself.įor on-location shooting, a battery is supplied that the company claims will last at least 45 minutes and for those working near a mains power supply, a DC adapter also comes included the kit. ![]() The colorspike panels are controlled via a smartphone app that allows colors and effects to be selected from an existing menu or to be custom mixed for the occasion (and saved for later use). The idea is that stills and video photographers can use these to add easily controlled color to their shoots, while videographers can also include flashing lights to emulate emergency vehicles, fire, lightning and any interrupted lighting. The results, when used in concert with, say, portrait photography, can be striking: The 2ft retails for $490 USD and the 4ft for $690 USD.The inventors of pixelstick have launched a new Kickstarter campaign to fund their latest creation: a strip of LEDs they're calling the 'colorspike.' Like the pixelstick, it can be controlled via an app to produce a range of effects unlike the pixelstick, the colorspike panel is more about lighting and color than it is about fun effects or light painting.Īt about two feet long, the colorspike consists of a strip of LED lights that the user can program to produce a massive range of different colors and pulsating lighting effects. The Voyager can also be used underwater, down to 4 meters for up to 24hours. It also has an intuitive companion app for customising the lights output and patterns. Digital Sputnik’s Voyager light is available in 2ft and 4ft options and offers similar control over sections of the light. There are other RGB light sticks on the market.

Optional barn doors ($35) can be mounted to the Colorspike, offering finer control of the light and shaping capabilities. Another nice thing about the Colorspike is that you can connect to multiple units simultaneously, controlling them in groups, or creating a pattern that spans across the lights. In one setup, Bitbanger refers to this method as creating shapes which has an intuitive layers interface for customising the light. The interesting thing about the light is that you have full control over sections of the light and not just the fixture as a whole. The app features a number of built-in presets and each preset can be customised to suit your needs. Like many new lights entering the market, one of the main highlights of the app is the ability for the light to be controlled by the companion app. The light can also be used without the app, using the dial and display screen to toggle between options.īitbanger claims the light to be flicker-free, with a refresh rate of >4000hz, has a max brightness of 1800 lumens and draws 18w of power. It can be powered via DC and has Bluetooth 4.0 for app control. The Colorspike is made by the same company that created the Pixelstick for photography.ĭesigned for stills & video, the Colorspike features a rugged, 52cm (20″) long, fan-less aluminium body with a replaceable 2900 mAh battery. ![]() Until the 10th of November, you can still get the special pre-order price of $429 USD, saving $20.
