Gifts for flow artists and light painters

The RGB Critter BT, the light that powers everything else.

Gift questions, answered

Is this beginner friendly?

Yes. The RGB Critter BT works the moment it comes out of the box, with 20 built-in modes on three simple buttons. The app is optional, and our kits include everything needed to start.

What if they already have an RGB Critter?

Even better. Every accessory we make twists onto every Critter, so any accessory or blade on this page is a safe pick. A second Critter also unlocks two-light props like the LED Staff.

Do I need to add batteries or chargers?

No. The RGB Critter BT comes with its rechargeable battery and charges over USB‑C.

Which kit should I pick for them?

Match it to what they love. The BitWhip Kit (from $159.95) paints the air with hundreds of fibers, the Saber Kit (from $179.95) is for contact and performance flow, the Fiber Optic Costume Kit (from $189.95) is wearable light, the Jupiter Rope Kit ($169.95) makes big glowing arcs, and the Light Painting Kit for Beginners ($199.95) is the right start for a photographer. Every kit comes with the light in the box.

What's a good gift under $25?

If they already own an RGB Critter, any stocking stuffer here works: blades from $14.95, and the Fiber Optic Duster or Acrylic Writer at $19.95. Not sure what they have? The AOAM Gift Card ($25 to $100) lets them pick the exact accessory their setup is missing.
