Light Painting Kit BT - Pro

Light Painting Kit BT - Pro 

This package was created explicitly for Light Painters looking for a comprehensive kit that includes the app-controlled RGB Critter BT and a slew of our favorite light painting accessories. 

Pro Kit Includes 

 

 

Reflective Material

The Reflective Material option includes a reflective material that runs lengthwise within the Modular Saber. This material reflects light towards your camera, increasing the overall brightness of your exposure. The Reflective Material will prevent light from being emmited from half of the Modular Saber.

 

Product Notice

Multiple connected RGB Critter BTs may not perfectly match color-changing modes, but solid colors will always match. We expect a resolution for this issue in early 2025. Once we release firmware that includes a fix for this issue, you can update your RGB Critter BT using the app.

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 iOS Ants on a Melon 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.

These color pickers are only available in the iOS version of the App.

To see what the Android color picker looks like, download the app:

RGB Critter BT Reviews

The best RGB colour changing flashlight available for light painting photographers and flow artists.

– stephenknightphotography.com

"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."

PHOTOFOCUS.COM
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.

Customizable Settings

The features on the Universal Settings page of the Ants on a Melon app allow you to quickly adjust strobe speeds, brightness levels, automatically play modes, and more!

USB-C Charging Port

Replaceable 18650 battery included.
Up to 7 hours of use per charge.

Silicone Modular Cap

Protect your RGB Critter and Modular
Sabers from accidental drops.

No rainbow option?

I appreciate the programability and that I can turn off the buttons, but can't seem to find a way to do rainbow the way by spacewhip can. If it only had this feature, I'd give it five stars!

Hi Jennifer, thanks for your review! We're happy to hear that you like the programmability and button options of BitWhip BT Package. We understand your request for a rainbow option and want to let you know that our AOAM App offers multiple rainbow modes in the 'AOAM Playlists' section. You can also create your own rainbow modes using the 'DIY' page of the app. If you need any help with this, please feel free to email us. Thanks again for your feedback!

Great product, but room for improvement

I bought 3 Critter RGBs, they are a fantastic product and I love them. The only flaws might be able to be addressed with a firmware update. If the Critter is out of range of the phone controlling it then it goes into a random color flashing mode instead of just remaining in the mode and colour it was set to. The other frustrating thing is that although I can connect all 3 of my Critters in the app, I can’t control and set each of them individually, only as a group with the same settings. I would love to be able to set each of them independently and not need to have a separate phone for each one. If those features could be addressed it would be a perfect system for my needs. Thank you.

Hi Denson, Thank you for your review! We are constantly working on improving our product and are happy to inform you that a new firmware and app update will be released within the next 2 weeks. This update includes many new features, such as the ability for the RGB Critter BT to remain in the same mode when it accidentally disconnects from the app (out-of-range). We are adding the ability to independently control more than 1 connected RGB Critter BT using the app in early-2025. You can stay updated on all our pending updates on our website here: https://antsonamelon.com/pages/rgb-critter-bt-updates.

Thank you for your support and we hope you continue to enjoy our products.

Love it

I love that it connects to my phone and I can make my own play lists with ease and the color variety is more. I'll love th bt critter even more when I can still use the bt even if my phone dies unexpectedly.

BEST WHIP

I reviewed every whip out there. Finally I looked up one I found from a girl who reviewed an older ants on the melon whip. I went and checked them out then. After alot of throughly reviewing whips I decided on the ants on the melon I thought seemed best. I'm so happy I choose this one. My friend has the firefly whip and hers is so broken in the fibers and loses alot of them often. Thanks for having the best product. I do wish tho it would work better or somehow without the app also. And I wish it beat to music as an option of diy with that too.
