The Coin 2.0 is essentially the Can 2.0 without the built-in battery. This makes the fixture much smaller so it can fit basically anywhere. My favorite use case is in front of a DJ facade or booth. Because they are so small, you don't need to hide them. And being between the dance floor and facade, it makes them very bright and adds a lot of color to the dance floor.
If you'd like to use them totally wirelessly, you can connect a USB battery bank to one (or multiple). If you're using a standard USB battery bank that goes for about $20 on Amazon, you can power 3-4 Coins off one for an event. Or, use the included 6.5ft USB extension cable to power them off a power source. As with all Ape Labs products, the control is totally wireless and every product is integrated into their incredible ecosystem.
The Ape Labs Coin 2.0 takes the "Tiny but Mighty" saying to a whole new level! At more than double the brightness of its previous generation, the Coin 2.0 is wildly versatile and fits almost anywhere. Plus, it is compatible with enough Ape Labs accessories to wow your audience with much more than you ever thought possible. Want to try a sample?
The Coin 2.0 is essentially the Can 2.0 but without the battery. This reduces the size and the price. And, if you decide you need to go battery-powered, simply plug it into a USB battery bank and go fully wireless. Whether you're doing uplighting, downlighting, dance floor lighting, pinspotting, or truss warming, this tiny light fixture is perfect for permanent installs or mobile events and can be hidden anywhere.
The renowned Ape Labs MusikMode stands unrivaled in the industry. With zero programming required, a single button press effortlessly synchronizes all Ape Labs products in the room (regardless of SKU) to collaborate and create a constantly evolving light show perfectly timed to the music. This isn't the typical "sound active" mode you've seen before; it's a genuine light show that would challenge even a professional lighting designer to replicate through DMX programming.
Not a fan of DMX? No problem. While all Ape Labs lights come equipped with wireless DMX receivers, most users prefer controlling them with the intuitive iOS/Android app or RF remote. These control options allow for easy grouping, where multiple lights (regardless of SKU and with no limit on quantity) can be set to one of four groups. You can change colors, adjust brightness, set programs, tweak speed or strobe settings, and more—all without affecting lights in other groups. Additionally, you can control multiple groups simultaneously. With the app, you can create scenes that allow all groups to be independently set with just the press of a button. (To use app, 'Connect' is required and is sold separately.)
The Ape Labs Coin 2.0 is a compact yet powerful fixture designed to meet a wide range of lighting needs. It is designed to be your tiny but mighty workhorse. With its AmberWhite LED technology, it can reproduce color that was never possible before. With 29 built-in color presets designed specifically for the event industry by American industry professionals, the Coin 2.0 allows the user to create incredible lighting designs with just the push of a button. Crafted in Germany with a careful balance of totally reengineered optics merged with the warmth of the AmberWhite LED technology, the Coin 2.0 is an incredibly flexible fixture, excellent for traditional uplighting, unique Fresnel effect uplighting, ambient lighting, dance floor lighting, stage lighting, design washes, table lighting, pinspotting, room washing, tube effects, and beyond.
Compatible accessories include the Swivel Ball Adapter (for mounting anywhere in any direction), wash optics (available in 10, 15, 25 or 45 degrees), Pinspot Adapter (5 degrees), UniStand (perfect when using as pinspot or dancefloor light), Dome Lens (for super-wide wash or eye-candy effects), Table Tube Adapter (for short tube effect lighting), Coin Tube (for 1 or 2 meter tube effect lighting), and many more. Possibilities are endless with the Ape Labs Coin 2.0.
When comparing Ape Labs LUX values to competitor values, make sure to look at single color ratings. If only a single LUX value is given for a fixture, it's most likely an "All On" rating. This means that every color is combined when rating.
The Ape Labs Coin 2.0 IP comes standard with 65° Effect Lens, but four alternative optics are available. Below are the LUX ratings for each color, with each beam angle, at both 1m and 2m distances.
| Color | aW | aW | R | R | G | G | B | B |
| Distance | 1m | 2m | 1m | 2m | 1m | 2m | 1m | 2m |
| 10° | 1,770 | 545 | 1,790 | 515 | 2,300 | 933 | 3,460 | 809 |
| 15° | 1,503 | 402 | 1,400 | 355 | 2,290 | 422 | 2,970 | 712 |
| 25° | 565 | 126 | 455 | 100 | 602 | 133 | 1,004 | 215 |
| 45° | 272 | 73 | 242 | 64 | 319 | 101 | 522 | 170 |
| 65° FX | 125 | 31 | 87 | 23 | 130 | 38 | 177 | 48 |
**With 15 degree wash optics, the Coin 2.0 LUX ratings average 227% (or 2.27x brighter) than the original Coin @2m
