The professional benchmark for on-location lights
The Profoto B1X has become a professional benchmark for cordless, battery-powered monolights. It's robust in design and build, cordless and offers both TTL and HSS. All of which makes it a reliable workhorse you can bring on any on-location assignment.

Power in all the right places Profoto B1X
We’d like to think of the B1X as power with a purpose. And that purpose is simple; we want you to be able to realize your vision wherever you may go. If that’s halfway up a mountain, overpowering the sun hanging off a rock overlooking the Mediterranean – then so be it. Because the B1X is no stay-at-home flash; it’s for the professionals who likes to get out there on location in the real world. That’s why B1X offers Profoto studio light reliability and performance in a cordless and robust and package that is battletested on location by professionals. Because we want you to have power in all the right places.
