The Right Balance — Light, Size, and Value

The only iPad booth under $2,500 with an 18-inch ring light and 13-inch iPad support.

The Phantom Basic occupies a unique spot in ATA’s lineup — more ring light than the Helio Sport, a larger iPad than the Flare Basic, and a built-in AirPrint pocket that keeps your print hardware hidden inside the column.

Battery compartment fits the optional 38,400mAh pack — up to 8 hours cordless runtime
Dedicated AirPrint pocket — Printio, DNP WCM, or Aircast Pro stays fully hidden
Hidden hinge door, no visible screws — seamless exterior at events
Fast battery and power-supply swap — minimal downtime at the venue
Integrated module pocket
