The SmallRig RC 220B Pro Bi-Color LED Monolight is a high-performance lighting solution designed for professional filmmakers, videographers, and photographers who demand powerful, precise, and quiet illumination. This compact yet robust fixture delivers outstanding brightness, a wide adjustable color temperature range, and exceptional color accuracy, making it a versatile tool for a wide array of creative applications.
Powerful and Consistent Bi-Color Output:
At the heart of the RC 220B Pro is a powerful 220W bi-color LED chip that delivers impressive illumination suitable for key lighting, fill lighting, or accent lighting in various production scenarios. The bi-color functionality allows for seamless adjustment of the Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) from a warm 2700K to a cool 6500K. This wide range enables you to perfectly match ambient light conditions, blend with other fixtures, or create specific mood lighting, from intimate indoor scenes to crisp daylight exteriors.
Exceptional Color Accuracy for True-to-Life Results:
The RC 220B Pro prioritizes color fidelity, boasting high CRI (Color Rendering Index) and TLCI (Television Lighting Consistency Index) ratings of 96+. These high scores ensure that colors are reproduced with remarkable accuracy, making skin tones look natural and vibrant, and objects appear true to their actual colors. This is crucial for professional productions where color consistency and realism are paramount.
Silent Cooling System for Audio-Sensitive Environments:
Designed with audio-sensitive environments in mind, the RC 220B Pro features an advanced and highly efficient cooling system that operates with extremely low noise. The fan noise is virtually imperceptible in most recording situations, making it an ideal choice for interviews, documentary filmmaking, or any project where clean, undisturbed audio is critical.
Universal Bowens Mount for Extensive Light Shaping:
Equipped with the industry-standard Bowens mount, the RC 220B Pro offers universal compatibility with a vast ecosystem of light modifiers. You can easily attach a wide range of softboxes, umbrellas, reflectors, snoots, and other Bowens-mount accessories (available separately) to precisely shape, diffuse, or control the light output. This versatility allows you to achieve diverse lighting effects to suit any subject or creative vision.
Multiple Control Methods for Enhanced Workflow:
The RC 220B Pro offers flexible control options to integrate seamlessly into your workflow:
- Onboard Controls: Intuitive physical dials and buttons on the fixture for direct and quick adjustments of brightness and CCT.
- SmallGoGo App: Control the light remotely via Bluetooth using the dedicated SmallGoGo app on your smartphone or tablet. This allows for precise adjustments, group control, and access to advanced features from a distance.
- 2.4 GHz Wireless Control: Compatible with optional SmallRig 2.4 GHz wireless remotes, providing another convenient way to control the light without direct line of sight.
Built-in Special Effects for Dynamic Lighting:
Expand your creative possibilities with a selection of 9 built-in special effects, including Flash, Paparazzi, Lightning, TV, Broken Bulb, Fire, Fireworks, Siren, and Pulse. These dynamic effects allow you to simulate various scenarios and add visual interest to your scenes without the need for complex programming.

The RC 220B Pro offers versatile power options to suit both studio and on-location shooting. It can be powered by standard AC power for continuous use. For greater portability and freedom, it also supports power via optional V-mount batteries (requires a V-mount battery plate, not included) or 14.4V/26V batteries, making it an excellent choice for outdoor shoots or situations where power outlets are unavailable.
