Explorer 1500 Battery Generator - Battery - Mains Charger

Description
· The Bowens Explorer 1500 represents the state of the art in portable battery generator technology. With its compact design and weighing just less than 12kg, the unit offers an unbeatable power to size ratio while providing the photographer with the flexibility of two independently digitally controlled 0.1 f/stop incremented channels.
· The unique LCD interface is both intuitive and informative, making it quick and simple to setup and start shooting accurately anywhere. The unit comes with an interchangeable 12Ah battery unit which provides up to 150 shots at the full 1500Ws, recycling in 3.8 seconds or 180 shots at 1200Ws in 3 seconds.
· The Explorer is QUAD head compatible and so can be used with existing QUAD heads or the Bowens Ringflash. In addition, the Explorer also features two 'Gemini' sockets which allow connection of two Esprit Gemini Monolights (#BZ7632 power cable required). So, by connecting two QUAD Heads and two Esprit Gemini 750 Units you can achieve a total of 3000Ws from this remarkably compact power pack.
