Generators –

Batter y

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.
