Generators – Battery

Bringing your light

Working on location is always a challenge. There’s not enough time. There’s not enough light. And worse: there’s no electricity.

The Profoto line of battery flash generators eliminates the dependency of electricity, without compromising the quality of the light or the famous Profoto versatility and ease of use.

If you need heavy-duty studio performance wherever you go, consider the Pro-B2 or the Pro-7b. They both give you 1200 Ws power, enough to balance even direct sunlight with two asymmetric outlets and plenty of control.

If your main objective is simplicity and low weight, we offer the AcuteB, sporting an impressive 7 f-stop range in a very small package and still capable of up to 160 flashes at 600 Ws.

Just like every other Profoto generator, the battery prod- ucts are compatible with the entire range of Profoto Light Shaping Tools and other accessories. So if you need extra equipment, your local dealer or rental studio can provide the tools you need.

Like all Profoto equipment the battery generators are also designed for heavy-duty use, they are durable and feature intelligently placed knobs, buttons and

handles. Simplicity is king!

Never settle for anything less than your own light.
