The NANLUX Evoke 5C is a tiny spotlight with advanced light shaping capabilities that utilizes the Nebula C8 color light engine.
The NANLUX Evoke 5C is a 6W fixture that features a built-in battery. It measures just 5.6 x 4.4 x 4.5 cm / 2.2 x 1.73 x 1.77″ and weighs just 160g / 5.64oz. It looks like it could be a good solution for small scenes, desktop, and macro cinematography/photography, or integration into set furniture as unobtrusive practicals. The fixture can be used handheld with the snap-on battery grip, precision-aimed with its dedicated yoke stand, securely mounted with anti-twist 1/4″-20 threads, or used for in-prop concealment.

Like the larger NANLUX Evoke 150C and Evoke 600C, the Evoke 5C is equipped with the advanced Nebula C8 Color Light Engine, which integrates Deep Red, Red, Amber, Lime, Green, Cyan, Blue, and Indigo LEDs. It achieves higher color saturation and offers an ultra-wide color temperature range of 1,000K-20,000K with ±200 green/magenta adjustment. It has a claimed CRI/TLCI average of 98 and seven built-in lighting modes, including CCT, HSI, HSIW, RGBW, XY Coordinates, Gel, and Effect.
The Evoke 5C has a comprehensive range of magnetically attachable modifiers, including Soft Dome, Fresnel Lens, Spot Beam Lens, Snoot, and Projection Attachment.
It features a rugged build and IP67 resistance. It can be submerged up to 1 meter underwater for 30 minutes. The optional IP68-rated Underwater Housing extends its operational depth to 30 meters.
As far as output is concerned, it is claimed to deliver 2,026 lux at 0.5 m (light only, 5600K), approximately doubling with the optional Fresnel Lens and reaching 5.5 times with the Spot Beam Lens.
14 dedicated accessories are designed for the Evoke 5C, including various modifiers, mounting, power, and control accessories. It features magnetic and snap-fit designs on the front, and magnetic and latch designs with electronic contacts on the back, allowing quick and easy attachment of accessories. A 1/4” -20 mount secures the Evoke 5C on light stands or
other supports, and a USB-C port allows power input, firmware updates, or connection of an adapter cable for wired DMX control.
With its built-in lithium battery, the Evoke 5C can operate for about 2.5 hours, and lasts 4.7 hours with the Battery Grip. It also accepts USB-C power, is compatible with the E27 Socket Adapter, or can be charged in the 8-Light Kit Case via electronic contacts.
The Evoke 5C supports multiple wired and wireless control methods. Adjustments can be made directly on the fixture or wirelessly via the NANLINK App. For larger or more complex shoots, it allows remote control via wired DMX or wireless CRMX. The NFC function allows users to batch-set DMX parameters for multiple fixtures even when they are powered off,
greatly improving pairing efficiency.
Optional Kits
In addition to the standard kit, optional bundles include the Evoke 5C Kit and the 8-Light Kit, designed to support a wide range of shooting setups—from solo creators to gaffers on large productions. The Evoke 5C Kit provides a variety of modifiers, allowing quick transitions between spotlighting, soft lighting, and beam spread control. Its convenient carrying bag features a carabiner, allowing it to be attached to a belt or bag for easy transport.
The 8-Light Kit includes eight Evoke 5C fixtures, a comprehensive range of modifiers, mounting, power, control accessories, and a custom-designed GUTEK T-230 charging case. This portable solution combines efficient storage, charging, and protection. The case supports three power options—AC power, D-tap battery, or USB-C PD adapter—simultaneously charging eight Evoke 5C fixtures and four Battery Grips.
