UlanziUlanzi FOLD15 Foldable Handheld Stick Light

The Ulanzi FOLD15 RGB Handheld Folding Light Tube combines a compact folding design with flexible RGB and adjustable white lighting for photography and video.

When folded, the FOLD15 measures just 30.5 cm, making it easier to store and carry. Unfolded, it extends to 48 cm, providing a larger lighting surface when shooting. At only 303 g, it can also be used comfortably as a handheld creative light.

The FOLD15 supports single-sided soft lighting and double-sided high-brightness modes, allowing the setup to be adapted to different subjects and shooting conditions. Colour temperature is continuously adjustable from 2500K to 9000K, while a Ra 95 colour rendering index helps maintain accurate-looking colours.

CCT, RGB and FX lighting modes provide additional creative control, while the built-in 7.4V 2500mAh battery offers at least 70 minutes of operation at maximum power. USB-C charging and support for charging during use make it suitable for both portable and longer shooting sessions.

Who this is for

The Ulanzi FOLD15 is designed for photographers, filmmakers and content creators who need a portable light that can handle conventional white illumination as well as creative RGB effects.

Its folding construction is particularly useful for location work where equipment size matters, while the mounting points allow it to be incorporated into more conventional studio and lighting setups.

How it works

Folding design

The FOLD15 measures 30.5 cm when folded and extends to 48 cm when opened. This gives you a longer lighting surface when required while keeping the light more compact for storage and transport.

Single or double-sided lighting

Choose between single-sided soft lighting and double-sided high-brightness operation depending on the required lighting effect and output.

2500K–9000K CCT adjustment

The wide adjustable colour temperature range covers warm through to cool white light. This makes it easier to adapt the FOLD15 to different ambient lighting conditions or deliberately introduce warmer or cooler tones.

RGB and FX lighting

Three built-in lighting systems — CCT, RGB and FX — allow the FOLD15 to move between adjustable white light, creative colour and dynamic lighting effects without requiring separate lights.

Built-in rechargeable battery

A 7.4V 2500mAh / 18.5Wh battery provides at least 70 minutes of operation at maximum power. Charging takes approximately 90 minutes, and the light supports charging while in use for longer sessions where external power is available.

Flexible mounting

Alongside handheld operation, the FOLD15 provides a 1/4-inch screw hole and ARRI locating hole, allowing it to be connected to compatible lighting supports and accessories.

Why choose the Ulanzi FOLD15?

The FOLD15 is useful when you want the visual possibilities of an RGB tube light without carrying a full-length fixture between locations. Its folding construction reduces its stored length to 30.5 cm while still providing a 48 cm lighting format when opened.

The combination of adjustable white light, RGB colour, FX modes and single or double-sided operation also makes one fixture adaptable to a variety of practical and creative lighting roles.
