The Nanlite Forza 150B is an ultra-compact bi-color spot light that delivers impressive output and flexible color temperature control. It runs on standard AC power or on battery power with an optional V-mount grip. Built-in controls, wireless Bluetooth and 2.4G connectivity, and a near-silent fan make it suitable for on-the-go shoots, livestreams, and studio work.
The Forza 150B balances a compact form factor with measurable light performance. At 1 meter with the included reflector and set to 5600K, it produces a high lux output suitable for many shooting scenarios. The color temperature is adjustable across a wide range to match ambient or creative lighting needs.
The Forza 150B provides accurate color rendition for both video and photography workflows. It delivers high CRI and TLCI measurements and reports strong TM-30 values for fidelity and gamut.
Nanlite constructed the Forza 150B from durable metal and carbon fiber elements to achieve both sturdiness and light weight. The user interface is simple: two knobs and one button let you make quick on-board adjustments without navigating deep menus.
For control, the fixture includes built-in Bluetooth and 2.4G wireless support compatible with the free NANLINK app. It also supports DMX/RDM through a locking 3.5mm wired connection for traditional lighting control systems.
The Forza 150B runs on standard AC and ships with a matching power adapter. For mobile setups, you can power it with a hand-held V-mount battery grip (optional). The light also accepts stand mounting for typical studio or location setups.
An intelligent fan-control system manages cooling, increasing fan speed only when necessary. You can also switch the fan off entirely when absolute silence is required, such as during live audio recording or quiet livestreams.
The fixture includes 12 built-in practical effects that you can trigger from the onboard controls. Additionally, the NANLINK app lets you save custom effects as recallable presets for consistent repeatability across sessions.
The Forza 150B uses the FM Mount, which gives access to a range of compatible accessories. Examples of supported modifiers include the PJ-FMM-19/36 projection attachment and FMM softboxes. A Bowens adapter is included in the box to expand your modifier options further.
