Nanlite Forza 60 II LED Spot Light

Nanlite Forza 60 II LED Spot Light – Daylight 5600K with compact bright output and quieter fan

What this light delivers

The Nanlite Forza 60 II preserves the compact form and high-quality light of the original Forza 60 while improving performance and versatility. It provides daylight-balanced output at 5600K, a 45° mini reflector for focused beam control, a locking DMX port for secure wired control, built-in Bluetooth for wireless app control, and a quieter integrated fan for low-noise operation.

Refined design and real-user improvements

Nanlite refined the Forza 60 II based on user feedback. The second-generation model improves interaction, control, noise management and overall user experience while keeping the compact and efficient design that made the first generation popular. As a result, the Forza 60 II delivers a more polished workflow for creators who need a small, powerful spotlight.

Compactness and brightness

The Forza 60 II fits high output into an ultracompact body. An updated optical and reflector design improves the illumination circle and maintains efficiency. In combined references to the Forza 60 II and 60B II family, measured illuminance is listed as 3261 lux / 2577 lux at 1 m with the light only, illustrating the class-leading output packed into a small head.

Color rendering and consistency

The Forza 60 II achieves high color-rendering performance. Its reported scores include a CRI of 95 and a TLCI of 98. Across the Forza 60 II/60B II series, TM-30 Rf averages 93 and TM-30 Rg averages 100, indicating strong fidelity and saturation performance that helps preserve accurate color information for capture and post-production.

Control options and workflow features

• On-board control via an OLED display and tuning knobs for quick adjustments.
• MODE button for fast switching between modes and improved speed on set.
• Dual wireless modules: 2.4G and Bluetooth built in for remote control with the NANLINK app and seamless integration with other Nanlite lights.
• Professional wired control over DMX/RDM using a locking DMX port for stable connections in larger systems.
• Firmware updates supported via the USB port on the bottom of the lamp head to add future features and improvements.

Noise management and fan options

The Forza 60 II features a significantly quieter built-in fan. With the fan running, noise levels can drop to around 20 dBA, making the light suitable for many sound-sensitive recording situations without needing to turn the fan off. You can also turn the fan off when necessary; note that maximum output drops to 30% with the fan turned off.

Mounts, modifiers and compatibility

The Forza 60 II uses the compact FM mount and participates in the growing FM mount ecosystem of modifiers for diffusing, concentrating, cutting and projecting light. Nanlite includes a Bowens-mount adapter to access a wider selection of native Bowens accessories, expanding the range of modifiers you can use.

Power and portability

The light supports DC operation via an optional battery grip. It accepts either two NPF batteries or a single V-mount battery for run-and-gun setups, allowing creators to move between locations without relying on AC power. A padded carrying bag is included for protection and easy transport, and the bag includes an external fixing point for a light stand to streamline on-location workflows.

Special effects and creative control

The Forza 60 II / 60B II family offers multiple built-in effects (11/12 effects depending on model) with adjustable parameters. These effects let creators combine light and shadow to produce creative looks directly from the fixture or fine-tune them in the NANLINK app.

Two output modes (referenced for 60B II)

For reference across the Forza 60B II model, there are two output modes: a conventional maximum output mode and a constant output mode that maintains relatively stable intensity when changing CCT. While the Forza 60 II is a fixed 5600K daylight model, this explains how the B-version handles CCT changes in exposure-sensitive contexts.
