LED strip as never before

Appreciated in the photo-video industry, the Amaran brand decided to go beyond the world of lighting designed for cameras and camcorders. Experience, an innovative approach and openness to the diverse needs of users allowed them to create a product like never before! The Amaran SM5c LED tape will prove useful not only as a striking element of vlog or stream scenography. You will also successfully use it to create a unique atmosphere in your living room, bedroom, gaming room or recording studio.

Unparalleled light quality

The Amaran SM5c is a completely new quality in the world of LED tapes. Its design was accompanied by an uncompromising approach, known from the world of video production, which ensures excellent light quality and unparalleled functionality. As many as 300 LEDs are arranged on the 5-metre strip, which together form 100 separate RGB sections. On one side of the strip, you will find strong double-sided 3M tape, which will enable quick and convenient installation. On the other side, the LEDs have been protected by a special diffuser, which ensures adequate protection of the LEDs and above-average dispersion of the light points.

Effective colour transitions

The Amaran SM5c LED strip allows for the personalisation of 5 or even 25 groups of LEDs. This means that adjacent sections can shine in different colours. However, that is not all. The device also offers 21 transition effects (including penetration, rainbow, party, aurora, star) that will create unique light animations.

Colour sound visualisation

Excellent light quality, striking transitions and personalisation of settings within separate zones are not all. A microphone built into the included controller will make a feast of colours respond to the sound in real time. Are you recording your DJ sets or videos of you playing an instrument? Or are you looking for a way to create a disco atmosphere at home? The Amaran SM5c LED strip will provide an amazing atmosphere when the LEDs start “dancing” to the rhythm of the music being played.

Extendable set

5 metres of LED tape is not enough? Do you want the striking colour transitions to go even further? With the Amaran SM5c extension module, you can create an LED strip with a total length of 10 metres. You don’t need any additional tools to connect two 5-metre pieces together. Just connect the 2 plugs together and you’re done! Thanks to the extension module, you don’t need to buy a second set with a separate driver and power supply!

Extension module AMARAN SM5C IS NOT PART OF THE KIT. It is available as a separate product.

Sidus Link application

You can control the Amaran SM5c LED strip without having to reach for a controller. Remote operation is provided by the powerful Sidus Link mobile app, which has been accompanying users of equipment from Aputure and Amaran for years. So there is nothing to prevent the tape from becoming part of a larger ecosystem of light sources that you use, for example, when recording video footage. The app will allow you to conveniently program advanced combinations of transitions, as well as personalise the settings for each group of LEDs. Thanks to Sidus Link, LED tape will become an even more powerful tool for creating the atmosphere of places with light!

Voice control

Connectivity to a smartphone via Bluetooth is not all. Compatibility with the WiFi standard also allows you to pair the tape with smart speakers offering voice assistant support – Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Simply use the Tuya Smart app to make the device respond to dozens of commands, such as ‘turn on the light’, ‘set the light to a warm colour’ or ‘turn the light red’.
