NANLITE has expanded their PavoSlim series with the introduction of the PavoSlim 240CL 4×1 RGBWW LED panel. Especially useful if you are a filmmaker or content creator working in tight spaces, this compact panel might be just what you’re looking for. Let’s have a look.
Parent company NANGUANG, a family-owned enterprise, is a leading light manufacturer based in China. Earlier this year, Johnnie had a chance to tour their factory in Shantou, China, and see how their lights are made. Introduced in late 2023, the PavoSlim line, which includes the 240B/240C and 60CL LED lights, has now added a panel specifically for those areas where it’s hardest to set up a light.
The PavoSlim is a series of very thin, high-output panel lights. Like the other models in the PavoSlim line, the 240CL features RGBWW output, a wide CCT range of 2700K-7500K and 0-100% dimming, green-to-magenta adjustment of +/- 150, and high color accuracy with a CRI of 96 and TLCI of 97. The unit also offers five lighting modes, including HSI, and 15 lighting effects.
With a rated power of 260W, the 240CL weighs only 3.62 kg/7.98lb and has a brightness level of 21,030 lux @1m/3.28 ft (5600K). The elongated design of the fixture offers a wider, softer beam along its length and a harder light along its width. This versatility should provide flexibility in various lighting scenarios.
The unit is composed of aluminum alloy, which provides both protection and heat dissipation. There is a large, multi-row sink on the back.
Optional accessories like the 5-meter DC Connection Cable with interconnectable connectors can extend the reach of the included DC cable for those hard to reach ceiling spaces, and a Dual-Panel Coupler, will allow two 240CL panels to be combined into a 4’x2′ configuration, expanding the light coverage significantly.
Let’s have a look at the 240CL panel’s specs:
The NANLITE PavoSlim 240CL 4×1 RGBWW LED is available now for $1750 / €1,730.90. It comes with a carrying bag, a pop-up softbox, egg crate, and 1.5- and 2.5-stop diffusers. For more information, please see the NANLITE website.

A camera was put in my hands at 16, and I’ve been taking photographs ever since. Before moving to Vienna, I worked as a photographer on film sets, telling stories as they unfolded behind the scenes. Since then, I’ve focused on immersive theater, both as a photographer and an actor. I am the photographer for the award-winning Nesterval ensemble, documenting the energy and atmosphere of their performances. I’m a teller of stories. Stories hold my interest. I’ll take on any project with a story to tell.
