    The Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight features a daylight-balanced colour temperature of 2700K-6500K along with a green-magenta shift by +/- 80. This unit will blend seamlessly into any ambient light situation, match other fixtures, or allow creative expression, this will all take your video production up to the next level.

    The Nanlite Forza500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight comes with a 55° reflector, Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz for wireless control, DMX/RDM capability, and four fan modes for speed adjustments or absolute silence. The off-board control unit adds to the compact and lightweight form factor of the overall light. The control unit can effectively run on AC power or optional V-Mount (not included) batteries.

    The light fixture itself sits on a curved yoke allowing for 360° rotation for greater control and tilting range when used with an optional large modifier. With a 5/8" receiver on the yoke, allows you to use industry-standard light stands and the Bowens mount makes the light compatible with a wide variety of compatible accessories from third party manufacturers.

    Included with the Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight you will find an AC power adapter. If AC power is not available, you can mount one or two 26V/14.8V V-Mount batteries to the sides. Everything comes neatly packed into a padded carry bag, keeping everything safe and secure while in storage or travelling.

    Accurate Colour and Special Effects

    With an average CRI of 96 and TLCI of 97 you can shoot with confidence that the colour reproduction will be accurate and precise. Additionally, you will find a total of 12 built-in customisable effects that can be saved as presets using the free-to-download NANLINK App for both iOS and Android.

    Green-Magenta Adjustment

    In a situation where the light source needs to be matched to achieve a specific look, the green-magenta shift comes in extremely helpful. It can be tweaked by +/- 80 to get there.

    Four Fan Modes

    Another big advantage of the Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight is the fact that the fan speed can be controlled in four increments. Smart, Full Speed, Low Speed or Off modes (note: 15% maximum output with fan turned off).

    Control Unit and Battery Power

    This light fixture is optimised for both in-studio and on-location use with the ability to be used with the AC power adapter. Alternatively, you will find two 26V/14.8V V-Mount battery plates on the sides for when AC power is not available. (V-Mount batteries not included)

    • 100% brightness using two separately available 14.8V V-mount batteries
    • 45% brightness using only one separately available 14.8V V-mount battery
    • Fanless control unit gets 30% more battery life
    • Control unit's lock button prevents accidental setting changes
    • Includes longer 19.8' power cable and 9.8' head cable
    • A robust quick-release clamp is included for mounting the control unit
    • The versatile clamp is compatible with round or square stands and trusses

    Onboard, DMX and App Control

    The Nanlite Forza 500B II Bi-Color LED Monolight control unit features an OLED display and onboard buttons and knobs for easy and precise control over the light fixture.
    The light can also be controlled remotely by using the free-to-download NANLINK App for both iOS and Android. Built-in 2.4 GHz lets you use the separately available Nanlite WS-RC-C2 handheld remote control or the Nanlite WS-TB-1 transmitter box for larger setups. Locking DMX/RDM ports facilitates advanced control and enables the 500II to be quickly adopted into any DMX-controlled environment

    Multiple Mounting Possibilities

    The curved rotating yoke with one-side lock, and forward articulation allows for 360° rotation, all these assist in a greater tilting range when using larger modifiers. You will also find an umbrella holder. Also, the Bownes mount on the Froza 500 Mark 2 makes it compatible with a very wide variety of additional lighting accessories.
