Nanlite Forza 300B II Overview

Adopting the generous output and the compact form of the Forza 300 and 300B models, Nanlite has added key refinements in every regard to improve the performance of its second-generation Forza 300B II Bi-Color LED Monolight Travel 2-Light Kit. This kit includes two Forza 300B II monolights, each with a 55° reflector, a control unit with V-mount battery plates, a power cord, and a super clamp. A carry case with built-in wheels is supplied to store and transport your lights.

Featuring an adjustable color temperature of 2700-6500K with a green-magenta shift by +/- 80, the Forza 300B II is a step up to the next level of quality for your video and photo productions. It will blend seamlessly into any ambient light situation, match other fixtures, or allow creative expression. Each light comes with Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz for wireless control, DMX/RDM capability, and four fan modes for speed adjustments or absolute silence. The Forza 300B II is ready for worldwide use thanks to its 110 to 240 VAC power supply, but it can also run V-mount batteries for situations when AC current is unavailable.

Bright Output

With the included 55° reflector, the Forza 300B II outputs up to 68,060 lux at 3.3' (5600K). When equipped with the separately available FL-20G Fresnel with barndoors, the light's output climbs to an impressive 151,000 lux.

Accurate Color & Special Effects

The Forza 300B II features a CRI of 96 and a TLCI of 97, meaning you can shoot with confidence knowing the color reproduction will be precise. Besides color accuracy, the light offers 12 built-in customizable effects that can be saved as presets using the free NANLINK app.

Green-Magenta Adjustment

In shooting situations where you need to match other light sources or achieve a specific look, it can be extremely helpful to adjust the green-to-magenta shift for color correction. With this Forza 300B II feature, you can tweak the color by +/- 80 to get there. The Forza 300B II is the first 300W spotlight with this ability, which is possible by its WW(RG) LED source.

Four Fan Modes

The light offers four fan modes to enhance speed control according to your needs. The light head's fan is 9 dBA quieter than the previous generation and can be turned off when absolute silence is needed.

• Smart, Full Speed, Low Speed, and Off modes
• 15% maximum output when turned off

Control Unit & Battery Power

Optimized for use in the studio or on location, the Forza 300B II's included control unit is equipped with easy-to-access battery plates on the sides to accommodate up to two V-mount batteries. The Forza 300B II can run off either AC power or using one or two 14.8V V-mount batteries, so you can operate in any location regardless of power availability.

• 100% brightness using two separately available 14.8V V-mount batteries
• 45% brightness using only one separately available 14.8V V-mount battery
• Fanless control unit gets 30% more battery life
• Control unit's lock button prevents accidental setting changes
• Includes longer 19.8' power cable and 9.8' head cable

• The versatile clamp is compatible with round or square stands and trusses

Onboard, DMX & App Control

The Forza 300B II's control unit features a convenient OLED display and onboard buttons and knobs for precise and easy local control, but the light can also be controlled remotely.

• You can fully control the light from your smartphone via Bluetooth with the free NANLINK app for iOS and Android
• Built-in 2.4 GHz lets you use the separately available WS-RC-C2 handheld remote control or the WS-TB-1 transmitter box for larger setups
• Locking DMX/RDM ports facilitate advanced control and enables the Forza 300B II to be quickly adopted into any DMX-controlled environment

Multiple Mounting Possibilities

The light's upgraded curved rotating yoke has a one-sided lock and forward articulation, and it allows 360° rotation to provide a greater tilting range with optional large modifiers. It also features an incorporated umbrella holder to expand your light-shaping options. Additionally, the light's Bowens mount capability makes the Forza 300B II compatible with a wide range of modifiers.

Compact, Powerful & Professional

Compact yet powerful, the Forza 300B II has a rectangular shape that can be stacked when setting up, breaking down, or storing. Its head measures 12.9 x 8.9 x 4.8" and weighs 6.3 lb. The light's control unit is now 37% smaller with just 9.1 x 6.1 x 5.4" dimensions. The light's head and the control unit combined have a total weight of 12.4 lb.
