Profoto B1 / B1x Battery
$50.00 /day
The definitive premium, high-capacity portable electrical link for flagship outdoor flash bodies, high-speed commercial portraiture, and demanding location cinema loops, the genuine Profoto Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery MkII for B1 and B1x Monolights is now available for rental in Hong Kong. Featuring an uncompromised 14.4V / 4.5Ah / 65Wh high-density capacity specification, this master-grade power cell delivers excellent current discharge efficiency. Fully optimized to deliver up to 325 full-power flashes on a single charge, it handles rapid recycling frames smoothly while ensuring precise telemetry tracking back to your flash display under real-time production loops. (Note: This standard rental package includes one standalone genuine Profoto battery only; flash heads, remote triggers, and dedicated mains chargers are available for add-on rent separately.)
A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.
The genuine Profoto Professional Li-Ion Battery MkII for B1 and B1x Monolights represents the reliable, high-utility industry standard for cordless studio lighting power and precise electrical consistency, making it an essential core utility for high-end gear hire in Hong Kong. Operating as a perfectly stable, high-voltage portable power matrix, this premium cell replaces uncertified alternatives with unthrottled flash recycling speeds across both the legacy B1 500 AirTTL and flagship B1x location strobe systems.
When executing an equipment hire for fast-paced commercial fashion lookbooks, high-end automotive setups, or demanding outdoor editorial loops in Hong Kong, maximizing your lighting stamina under real-time production loops is critical to catching the golden hour. Relying on degraded cell structures or low-grade third-party copies introduces severe recycling delays, thermal performance degradation, and sudden machine lockups. The Profoto B1/B1x lithium battery solves this structural operational bottleneck flawlessly. Precision-engineered to deliver up to 325 full-power flashes on the B1x or 220 flashes on the B1, it keeps your high-speed synchronization (HSS) pipeline completely active and reliable under continuous production pressure.

(Note: This standard rental listing covers a single standalone battery block only; B1/B1x strobe heads, Air Remotes, and mains charging units are available for add-on rent separately.)
-
Q: Are B1 or B1x flash heads, dedicated battery chargers, or wireless Air Remotes included inside this standard rental listing?
A: No, they are not. This specific rental listing covers a single standalone genuine Profoto B1/B1x battery block only (priced per piece). It is intentionally designed to offer highly flexible, low-overhead portable utility allocations for production crews, digital assistants, or lighting technicians who already manage their preferred strobe heads and simply require extra fresh, high-performance power units on location. If your crew requires a full flash setup or charging arrays, please remember to add our Profoto B1x location kits, multi-slot charging stations, or Air Remote TTL triggers to your Hong Kong gear allocation.
-
Q: How many full-power flashes can our production team expect to achieve from a single charge on the B1 and B1x models?
A: The total real-world flash capacity depends directly on the configuration of your host strobe head. When mounted onto the B1x 500 AirTTL, a single fully charged battery safely delivers up to 325 full-power flashes due to optimized firmware efficiency. When paired with the older B1 500 AirTTL model, it yields up to 220 full-power flashes. If your production tracking loops utilize lower power brackets, your total flash counts will extend considerably.
-
Q: Can we bring this battery with us on a commercial flight out of Hong Kong International Airport for an overseas assignment?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Profoto B1/B1x battery features a total energy capacity of 65 Watt-hours (65Wh), which places it comfortably below the strict 100Wh maximum safety threshold enforced by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). This means your crew can safely transport these cells inside your carry-on hand luggage. Please ensure that the exposed metal power terminals are shielded with the included protective cap or tape to pass terminal airport safety checkpoints cleanly.
-
Q: How is the rental fee calculated?
A: The rental fee is calculated on a 24-hour basis per rental period at Dream Scenes Studio Hong Kong.
-
Q: Is a deposit required?
A: Yes, a corresponding deposit is required for all equipment rentals in HK.
-
Q: What payment methods are accepted for the deposit?
A: We accept credit card authorization for the deposit, which is fast and convenient for local and international crews.
