Litegear LiteMat Spectrum 4 RGB LED Light Rental

MPR Says

By David Wells, President, Moving Picture Rental — Updated February 2026

The LiteMat Spectrum 4 rental is the mid-size RGB panel in the Spectrum series. Same RGB capability as the larger Spectrum 8, just in a 21″ × 40″ format that’s easier to transport and rig. For jobs where you need full color control but don’t need the physical size of the Spectrum 8, this is the fixture.

Corporate events, music videos, broadcast backgrounds—anywhere you need RGB color in a soft panel format. For standard commercial and interview work where you just need white light, the hybrid LiteMats make more sense. The Spectrum series is specialty gear for color-specific applications.

The LiteMat Spectrum 4 weighs 5.7 pounds and measures 21″ × 40″. It draws 200W at maximum output and runs on Gold Mount batteries or AC power. The RGB system provides 16.7 million color options, plus a hybrid CCT mode covering 2600K-6000K if you just need standard white light. DMX control runs over 5-pin XLR.

Color accuracy in white mode is CRI 95+ and TLCI 95+ at daylight, CRI 97+ and TLCI 96+ at tungsten. In RGB mode you get accurate color reproduction across the full spectrum—matters when you’re matching brand colors or creating consistent looks.

RGB Applications in Florida Production

We rent the Litegear LiteMat Spectrum 4 for corporate events in Miami where brand color accuracy matters. Music videos shot in Orlando studios where background color shifts throughout the shoot. Broadcast productions in Tampa where set lighting needs to change between segments.

The 21″ × 40″ size works well as an RGB key light for interviews, a color-changing background element, or an effects light for creative work. The DMX integration means you can program color cues or control multiple Spectrum units as a synchronized group.

The Spectrum 4 also works in standard hybrid mode—2600K tungsten through 6000K daylight—when you don’t need RGB. So you can use it as a regular soft source on jobs that don’t require color capability. That versatility matters for rental gear that needs to work across different production types.

Battery Operation

At 200W maximum draw, the Spectrum 4 runs about 45-60 minutes at full RGB output on a 95Wh Gold Mount battery, or 90+ minutes on a 190Wh battery. Better battery life than the larger Spectrum 8, which makes the Spectrum 4 more practical for mobile work where AC power isn’t available.

Most clients still run it on AC for events and studio productions where outlets are accessible. But the battery capability is there when you need it, and the runtime is actually usable for location work.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I secure a Litegear LiteMat Spectrum 4 rental in Florida?
You can easily secure your rental by submitting a quote request through our online portal. We offer full-service fulfillment for pickup or delivery across our five major Florida hubs, including Miami, Orlando, and Tampa. Our team ensures all panels are tested and RGB functionality is verified before every rental.

Can I use the Spectrum 4 as regular white light?
Yes. It has hybrid CCT mode covering 2600K-6000K just like the standard LiteMats. Color accuracy in white mode is CRI 95+ at daylight, CRI 97+ at tungsten. Use it as a normal soft source when you don’t need the RGB capability.

How does battery life compare to the Spectrum 8?
The Spectrum 4 runs about 45-60 minutes at full output on a 95Wh Gold Mount battery, versus 30-40 minutes for the Spectrum 8. At 200W instead of 400W, the Spectrum 4 is more practical for battery-powered work.

Do I need DMX to control color?
No. The Spectrum 4 has manual controls on the power supply for selecting colors and adjusting brightness. DMX is optional—you can use it in standalone mode. DMX just provides programmed control and multi-fixture synchronization if your workflow needs it.

How accurate is the color matching for corporate branding?
The RGB system provides 16.7 million color options, which covers any brand color you’d need to match. You can dial in specific colors manually or program them via DMX. For corporate events where brand color accuracy matters, the Spectrum 4 gets you there.

Can I mix Spectrum 4 and Spectrum 8 units?
Yes. Both fixtures have identical RGB capability and color science. You can synchronize them via DMX and they’ll match perfectly. Some productions use Spectrum 8 for key light and Spectrum 4 for fill or accent—works well.
