Elinchrom One

725 full-power flashes per charge for battery-powered monolight

Atrue go-anywhere light source, the One weighs just 1.5kg (3.3lb), is a similar size to a 70-200mm lens and features extensive weather protection. Built around an internal Li-ion rechargeable battery, the unit can be recharged from any USB-C power source. Although its maximum light output is quoted at a relatively low 131 Ws, Elinchrom states that actual measured light output from the One is equivalent to the illumination from most 200+ Ws flashes. To boost light output and enhance beam spread, the One’s flash tube is unconcealed, and can also be fitted with Elinchrom’s new OCF modifier mount. www.elinchrom.com; from £799/$949 (single flash kit)
