Rated 5 out of 5

Major upgrade from b10s

As a 1st assistant/ lighting tech in Los Angeles I have been using profoto battery strobes for years. I own 4 b10+ and have used them in every situation they're capable of handling. I am very satisfied with the design updates on the b30s. My two biggest complaints with the b10s were the lack of a sync port and no handle like the b1x. With the optional ocf handle and the ability to fix flash tubes myself I feel like profoto really listened to the industry and added useful features. I also love the new rugged rubberized build, It feels much more sturdy than the b10s. The modeling light is very noticeably brighter and somehow doesn't drain the battery faster with more output. Highly recommend if you're needing a compact location strobe kit.
