It's the perfect tool for bringing my artistic visions to life

Filipp Kabanyayev @minimaleafs

Hi, I'm Filipp! I'm a passionate photographer who loves to experiment with light and color. One of my specialties is light painting photography, where I transform simple subjects like leaves and flowers into vibrant, ethereal creations using colored lights. Each of my photographs begins in complete darkness, with light added stroke by stroke, just like painting on a canvas. To achieve the best possible results, I need a flashlight that's bright, vibrant, and reliable—and that's why the RGB Critter BT is my go-to choice. I've tried many flashlights, but Critter stands out with over 16 million super-bright colors, intuitive controls, and a durable design that never lets me down. It's the perfect tool for bringing my artistic visions to life. Through my work, I hope to inspire others to appreciate the beauty of simplicity and connect more deeply with the natural world—and with tools like Critter, that vision becomes a reality.

16 Million Color Options

Choose from an insane amount of color options using three different color pickers within the Ants on a Melon iOS App! The main LED on the RGB Critter BT displays all selected colors and mode patterns in real-time, allowing you to see the actual colors and patterns on the physical flashlight.

RGB Critter BT Reviews

The RGB Critter BT improves upon what was already the best RGB colour changing flashlight available for light painting photographers and flow artists.

"The RGB Critter BT improves upon what was already the best RGB colour changing flashlight available for light painting photographers and flow artists. The app control makes the Critter BT much easier to control than the Critter 2.0 once the devices are connected. Programming new or editing existing effects presets is also very easy."

EDITOR'S CHOICE - 5/5 STARS

– Photofocus.com

Flow art, light drawing, and light painting of subjects are different branches of the same glow tree. And the RGB Critter BT is flexible enough to do all three very well. Despite not being designed for light painting subjects, the RGB Critter BT shines brightly above the competition. The cost of the light is very fair for what is easily one of the most comfortable, highest-quality RGB flashlights currently on the market. The functionality of this light is heads and shoulders above its predecessor for both ease of use, nearly infinite color selection, and the ability to save custom colors and lists. While it has its flaws for light painting subjects, it’d be impossible not to recommend it highly. In fact, given its price point, it earns an Editor’s Choice.
