Product Information
Full details
The Godox TL30 K2 Tube Light set is designed for mobile photographers and videographers seeking versatile, portable lighting. Its primary benefit is the compact, tube-shaped form factor that allows for quick setup and flexible placement, ideal for location shoots or tight spaces. A key consideration is that while powerful for its size, it may require multiple units or external modifiers for large-area lighting needs. This kit includes two TL30 RGB LED tubes, offering bi-color adjustment (2700-6500K) with high color accuracy (CRI 97, TLCI 99), a full RGB gamut (36,000+ colors), green/magenta adjustability, and 13 tunable effects. The K2 set also provides accessories like grids and waterproof cases, enhancing its application range.

FAQs
How long does the battery last on a full charge?

Can I control the lights remotely?
Yes, the Godox TL30 lights can be controlled remotely using the Godox Light App via Bluetooth. This allows for fine-tuning of color, brightness, and effects from your smartphone.
What is the maximum color temperature?

How many colors can the RGB mode produce?
The RGB mode allows access to over 36,000 different colors.
Are the lights waterproof without the bags?
No, the TL30 lights themselves are not waterproof. The included waterproof bags (TL-W30) are required for underwater use.
Can I link more than two TL30 lights together?
The included TL-M2 coupler is designed for linking two TL30 tubes. For more complex setups, multiple lights can be used independently or linked in pairs.

Troubleshooting
Light will not turn on
Ensure the battery is charged by connecting it to a power source via the USB-C port. Try a different USB-C cable and power adapter.
Colors are inaccurate or inconsistent
Verify that the CRI/TLCI settings are not being misinterpreted. Ensure the light is set to the correct CCT or RGB mode. For persistent issues, try resetting the light if an option is available via the app or by cycling power.
Light flickers during use
Check the power connection and ensure it is stable. If using a power bank, ensure it can supply sufficient and stable current. If the issue persists, the internal battery or power circuitry may require service.
App cannot connect to the light
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device and that the light is powered on. Close and reopen the Godox Light App. Try re-pairing the light by turning it off and on again.
Waterproof bag is leaking
Immediately remove the light and check the bag's seals for debris or damage. Inspect the bag for any punctures or tears. Do not use a damaged bag.
