The V-Mount Battery Grip with 4-Pin XLR Connector from Nanlite allows select Forza LED monolights to be used completely untethered, either handheld or mounted to a stand with the built-in 5/8" receiver. It has an attachment mount for a single, separately available V-Mount battery. A built-in D-Tap cable connects to a 14.8 or 26V battery, and a locking, female 4-pin XLR connector is also built-in to connect to the monolight. This allows the light unit to operate on battery power without requiring the use of the separate battery/AC adapter box. The ergonomic hand grip allows creative handheld lighting techniques to be used as an all-in-one, battery-powered fixture. An integrated 5/8" receiver makes it easy to move from handheld use to stand mounting in seconds.
