Profoto B1X To Go Kit 500 Airttl £1,630/$2,095

Profoto’s revamped B1 kit gets the X factor, but will this location light get through to the finals?

POWER and stamina are key factors for any battery-driven location flash kit. Both get significant upgrades in Profoto’s new B1X kit, making it a worthy update over the popular B1. The kit comprises a flash head, mains charger, rechargeable lithium-ion battery and carrying bag; the whole caboodle weighs just 5kg, complete with clip-on battery.
