The 200 watts F22 model is basically two 100W F21 panels combined.
F22c Kelvin Color Temperature Accuracy & Color Rendering Scores The F21 fixtures have a passive cooling system, so no fan is used inside the controller. Overall the fans are too loud for my liking, and I would have to move them away as far as possible from the microphones. I wish the tone was deeper however, it’s a little bit on the higher end, and that is a little concerning if the light is close to sensitive microphones. It’s a bit odd the two controllers have different fan noises. I found the F22x is a touch louder than the F22c. The F22x and F22c have a fan to keep them cool. This USB-C DMX input is also included with the new amaran Tube Lights that were also announced.

You can also achieve full output when using the AC power supply.Ī new feature that will be popping up on fixtures in the amaran product line is DMX control with a special USB-C to 5-Pin DMX512 In & Out Adapter Cable, allowing professional-level control to the flexible light product line. You can use a 14.4V battery to achieve half power or max out the intensity with full power when using compatible 26V or 28.8V batteries. The control box is outfitted with a multi-voltage battery plate. The lights come with a cord that lets you hang the controller on a light stand’s lockdown knob. It gets bumped a lot and is a bit sloppy to use. I think it’s worth having as I do not like hanging controllers on the stand, especially with a battery attached.
The Aputure Lightening Clamp retails for $69 USD. However, the clamp to mount it isn’t included in the kit. The controller is equipped with either a V-Mount or Gold Mount plate and has the Aputure QR plate on the side. I will say the cable is thick and well-designed with locking connectors. The other models didn’t have problems, so I’ll chalk it up to being a pre-production model. This build is good and shouldn’t break easily however, the F22c preproduction model started having some issues, and a row of LEDs changed colors when the connection was wiggled a bit. The cable is attached to the panel with a reinforced hard plastic bracket on both sides. I do understand the amaran line is for the budget-minded user. It fits in a sturdy grip head so much better than the included adapter. The angled pin is also a bit odd as the end of the pin is a 3/8 16″ adapter.

I would upgrade this with a more robust light stand adapter or go with a grip head. It’s on the light side and doesn’t lock down tight easily. The light stand receiver is not my favorite. Some of the Velcro-style frames tend to sag a little and are much more prone to falling off the frame over time. It holds sturdy and won’t slip off easily, making it a good option for overhead use. The X-Type Frame ends inserts into reinforced corners of the panel and pulls it out a little. I like the design of the frame as it’s sturdy and doesn’t use hook and loop fabric to attach to the frame. They come in a few pieces, and to be used as a conventional light, you use the included frame with light stand receiver.
