Battery and Power
The battery handle grip has a quick-release design that integrates with the tube light. It includes a built-in 45Wh battery, providing up to 2 hours of continuous full-power usage on a single charge. The device also has a USB-C port for PD fast charging or powering the light from a battery.
Design and Build
The RT25 measures 42cm / 16.54″ when compacted and weighs 900g / 1.98 lb. SmallRig claims it is 75% lighter than comparable products. It is constructed from anodized aluminum alloy and robust materials, with an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance. The light is passively cooled, meaning it operates silently without a fan.
