Really love this light so far and am contemplating getting rid of all my packs and heads that can't do HSS. So far-I love the way this light works and am still trying to drain the battery. Great investment so far!

The S1 is the first high-tech TTL HSS monolight to include intelligent TTL and HSS technology in a battery-powered monolight with an available International Multi-Voltage AC Power adapter.
Through The Lens
Through The Lens Metering in TTL Mode uses the S1's entire 9-stop power range (500W - 1.9Ws) and is automatically calculated in 1/10th stop increments and allows for +/- 3 stops of exposure compensation.
Manual Mode
Manual Mode utilizes the entire 9-stop power range, controllable in 1/10th stop increments.
High-Speed Sync
High-Speed Sync in Manual Mode at up to 1/8000th of a second shutter speed using the top 3 stops of the power range (10.0 - 8.0) and is manually adjustable in 1/10-stop increments.
Multi-Voltage AC Adapter
Available International Multi-Voltage AC Adapter that can power the unit with or without the battery in place, maximizing battery health longevity.
Battery
Integrated and exchangeable lithium-ion battery is flush with the flash body, offers a 350 full power flash capacity and allows for wire-free and rapid setup and repositioning of lights when power outlets encumber workflow or are not an option at a shoot.
Color Accurate
Color Accurate to within +/-100 Kelvin using high-tech insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) technology.
Short Flash Duration
Short Flash Duration for freezing action and sports motion between 1/500th of a second to 1/11000th without compromising color consistency, using IGBT technology.
Integrated Wireless System
Integrated Wireless System with remote TTL flash exposure compensation and manual power control in three groups from camera position using the S1 Remotes for Canon, Nikon or Sony (sold separately).
Frosted Glass Dome
Frosted Glass Dome softens and disperses light evenly through large and small light modifiers alike, from large octaboxes to small beauty dishes and reflectors while protecting the user-replaceable flash tube.
Construction
Aluminum Construction with an attractive matte finish gives the unit greater heat dispersion, durability and weight-to-rigidity efficiency.
Firmware Upgradeable
Firmware Upgradeable via Micro USB Port for future fixes and features.
