Aputure Amaran Ray 120C RGB Bowens Mount LED Monolight

The Aputure Amaran Ray 120C RGB Bowens Mount LED Monolight packs 120 watts of full-colour LED power into a remarkably slim 5cm profile, weighing just 590 grams. This compact point-source light delivers professional-grade output with extended colour temperature range (1800-20,000K), full HSI and RGB control, and impressive colour accuracy (CRI 95, TLCI 95) that video creators rely on for consistent results. Whether you're shooting in a cramped studio corner or need a portable solution for location work, the Ray 120C combines mobility with performance, featuring a full-size Bowens mount, IP54 weather resistance, multiple power options including USB-C PD, and intuitive controls via the FlowTurn knob or NFC-enabled app connectivity.

Powerful Output in a Truly Portable Package

The Ray 120C delivers 6850 lux at 1 metre (3200K bare bulb), offering significantly more punch than the amaran 150c whilst reducing body size by 85%. This makes it ideal when you need substantial light output but space is limited or you're moving between locations frequently. Pair it with optional modifiers like the Mini Reflector or Mini Fresnel for even greater intensity when needed.

Professional Colour Accuracy That Matches Reality

With 8719 lumens output and high colour rendering scores (CRI 95, TLCI 95, SSI 80/87, TM-30 94/100), the Ray 120C reproduces skin tones accurately and delivers consistent colour across different materials. The OmniColor light engine provides an enhanced spectrum with expanded red and blue ranges, whilst green-magenta shift adjustment ensures your whites stay clean and colours remain true both on camera and to the naked eye.

Complete Colour Control and Creative Effects

Access adjustable colour temperature from 2300K to 10,000K, expandable to 1800-20,000K in CCT+ mode for creative warmth or ultra-cool effects. Full 360-degree colour control through HSI and RGB modes lets you dial in precise hues for any creative vision. Twelve built-in FX modes add dynamic lighting effects:

• Fireworks
• Faulty bulb
• Lightning
• TV flicker
• Pulsing
• Strobe
• Explosion
• Fire
• Paparazzi
• Welding
• Cop car
• Party

Intuitive Control Options

The FlowTurn knob provides satisfying tactile feedback when adjusting settings, whilst the TFT screen displays clear menu information for onboard operation. Quick Operation mode enables instant adjustments, and you can programme custom shortcuts for frequently used settings via long press and double-click options. Built-in NFC configuration allows one-tap pairing with the amaran app for wireless control up to 80 metres away via Bluetooth. High-Speed Photography and Studio modes adapt the light's behaviour to specific shooting scenarios.

Flexible Power Solutions for Any Situation

The Ray 120C supports multiple power methods to suit different workflows. Use the included AC adapter for mains power, connect USB-C PD 3.0 power banks for cable-light setups, or attach optional amaran Ace E-Lock batteries for completely wireless operation. The optional amaran Peak battery provides 35 minutes at 100% output, whilst the Peak 75 delivers up to 46 minutes at 50% output, perfect for quick shoots or when power outlets aren't available.

Built for Real-World Conditions

An IP54 rating protects against dust and water splashes, making the Ray 120C reliable for outdoor shoots where wind, light rain, or humidity might threaten lesser lights. Active fan cooling operates quietly at just 28 dBA maximum, ensuring your audio stays clean during video recording. Choose between silent or smart fan modes depending on your shooting requirements. This weather-resistant design means fewer delays and more confidence when working in unpredictable conditions.

Professional Mounting and Modifier Compatibility

Despite its compact size, the Ray 120C features a full-size metal Bowens mount, providing compatibility with an extensive range of professional light modifiers including the optional Mini Reflector, Mini Fresnel, and standard Bowens softboxes and grids. The included 30cm Octa Dome 30 softbox sets up with one snap, whilst the Ace Lock to Baby Pin Adapter Grip allows quick mounting to light stands or handheld use with portable batteries. A 1/4-20" screw mount offers additional rigging options. A durable silicone strap on the adapter secures your power source during transport or handheld operation.
