The Esprit monobloc represents a successful evolution of four decades of monobloc excellence and development and, in that tradition, still provides the best value available in high-quality lighting for the professional photographer. As with the entire Bowens system, Esprit monoblocs are compatible with one of the world’s most diverse selections of reflector systems and light control accessories. This fact alone makes the Esprit system one of the safest investments you can make in your photographic future. It’s a system you will never outgrow.
Esprit 1500
The Esprit 1500 is really three exceptional units in one. A selector switch allows it to be set to 500, 1000 or 1500Ws of total power. Since the total flash power is adjustable from full to 1⁄32 power, the Esprit 1500 offers photographers and amazing 7 1⁄2 f/stop power range. A three-electrode clear flash tube mounted behind a UV-balanced Pyrex dome guarantees fast flash durations and the best colour consistency over the life of the tube. Combine this with a fan-cooled 650W modelling lamp and auto power dumping and you have a most impressive specification.
