Review Summary
The Priolite Leipzig MBX500 2-Light Kit is built around the 500W/s MBX500 battery powered flash head. The kit includes two flash heads, two 8.2' heavy-duty light stands, a 28 x 39" softbox, a 39" umbrella and a wheeled Trolley Case. The exchangeable Lithium-ion battery plugs flush into the rear control panel in each head as if it was built-in. A 3.0 hour charge will give you 220 full power flashes and thousands of minimum power flashes. What's remarkable about the MBX500 is that it recycles in only 2.5 seconds to full power and is capable of 5 minimum power flashes per second, without extending the recycling time as the battery depletes. If you need to stop action the MBX500 offers very short flash durations of 1/15,000 to 1/4,500 sec.
Triggering options include an optical slave and a built-in radio receiver that requires separate purchase of a transmitter for use. Flash readiness is confirmed via a switchable audio signal. Other conveniences include multi-voltage charging, Bowens S-type mount compatibility and a 5.0 stop power range. If your battery is depleted, you can run the MBX500s on AC power through the battery and charger. The battery will commence charging when you stop shooting.
