Profoto B10 Plus 500W With 1 Battery
$550.00 /day
Twice the power of the B10 in a remarkably compact form factor. A 500Ws battery-powered monolight the size of a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens, featuring a powerful bicolor continuous LED, full AirTTL, and 1/8000s HSS for ultimate hybrid location lighting.
A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.
The Profoto B10 Plus 500W is the ultimate synthesis of heavyweight studio power and lightweight location mobility. By packing a commanding 500Ws of flash energy—exactly double the power of the standard B10—into a body the size of a standard 70-200mm f/2.8 telephoto lens, the B10 Plus hits the absolute sweet spot for commercial location photographers, high-end wedding shooters, and hybrid cinematographers who refuse to compromise on output.
Weighing just 1.9 kg, the B10 Plus delivers the raw sun-killing power of the classic B1x series but with a vastly reduced physical footprint. Its defining hybrid feature is a high-output, built-in bicolor continuous LED light that throws up to 2500 lumens of pristine light with an adjustable color temperature range from 3000K to 6500K (CRI 90-96). This allows you to instantly switch from high-speed strobe work to clean video interviewing without swapping fixtures. Paired with Profoto’s Air system, it supports seamless AirTTL auto-exposure, full-range High-Speed Sync (HSS) up to 1/8000s, and smart Bluetooth control via the Profoto smartphone app.
Applicable Scenarios:
-
Overpowering Harsh Daylight: Utilize 500Ws of raw energy combined with High-Speed Sync (HSS) to effortlessly overpower the intense Hong Kong midday sun while shooting wide open at f/1.2 or f/1.4.
-
Hybrid Editorial Photo/Video Sets: Perfect for rapid commercial productions where you must capture high-fashion stills and continuous video content on the same layout.
-
Run-and-Gun Location Portraits: Easily fits into a standard camera backpack, making it ideal for solo shooters or small crews operating on rapid public location timelines.
-
Large Softbox & Umbrella Deployments: Delivers the necessary power reserves to fill large modifiers (like deep umbrellas or octaboxes) evenly without experiencing light drop-off.
-
Double the Power, Compact Size: Delivers a full 500Ws of studio-grade power packed into a streamlined chassis matching a standard 70-200mm zoom lens.
-
Bicolor Continuous LED Light: Generates 2500 lumens of dimmable continuous output with adjustable color temperature (3000K–6500K) for professional video applications.
-
Smart Charge-While-Use Utility: Upgraded internal architecture allows the strobe to operate continuously on AC mains power while the battery is charging.
-
Wireless AirTTL & Full-Range HSS: Natively triggers automatically or manually up to 1/8000s to freeze fast-moving action and seamlessly control heavy ambient light.
-
10-Stop Control Range: Finely calibrate your lighting ratios with precise 1/10-stop increments from a punchy 500Ws down to a subtle 1s fill.

Q: Can I use the B10 Plus while it is plugged into the battery charger?
A: Yes! The B10 Plus fully supports continuous “charge-while-use” operation. When transitioning to indoor studio setups, simply plug it into AC mains power via the charger to run all day without worrying about battery draining.
-
Q: Does the B10 Plus use the same battery as the standard B10?
A: Yes, they use the exact same interchangeable battery pack. Because the B10 Plus outputs double the flash energy (500Ws vs 250Ws), a single charge yields approximately 200 full-power flashes, compared to 400 pops on the standard B10. -
Q: Can I use standard light modifiers on the B10 Plus?
-
A: Yes. The B10 Plus features the standard 100mm rubber collar mount, making it fully compatible with the entire Profoto shaper ecosystem (RFi softboxes, hard reflectors, umbrellas). It pairs most natively with lightweight OCF (Off-Camera Flash) modifiers for optimal balance.
-
-
Q: Is the Profoto B10 Plus battery safe for airline travel?
-
A: Yes. The Lithium-Ion battery is rated at 43.2Wh, which is well below the international IATA safety threshold of 100Wh. It can be carried onboard inside your carry-on luggage safely, but must never be placed in checked baggage.
-
-

-
A: The rental fee is calculated on a 24-hour basis per rental period.
