Nanlite Forza 60B II LED Spot Light

Nanlite Forza 60B II LED Spot Light – Bi-Color 2700–6500K with compact design and quieter integrated fan

The Nanlite Forza 60B II is a second-generation bi-color LED spotlight that builds on the compact, lightweight qualities of the original Forza 60 series. It delivers an adjustable color temperature range of 2700–6500K, integrates Bluetooth for wireless app control, includes a locking DMX port, and uses a quieter internal fan. The unit also ships with a 45° mini reflector and supports firmware updates via USB.

Refined design and user-focused upgrades

Nanlite improved the Forza 60B II based on user feedback collected since the first generation. The second-generation models emphasize better interaction, improved control options, and reduced noise. Nanlite focused on iterative enhancements to raise real-world usability while maintaining the original strengths of the Forza 60 line.

Compactness, updated optics and brightness

The Forza 60B II keeps an ultracompact form while refining the reflector and optical design. Nanlite updated the reflector to improve the illumination circle and preserve efficiency in a small package. The lights deliver strong output even from their compact bodies, with illuminance listed as 3261lux/2577lux @1m (light only).

Because of this output and compact profile, the Forza 60B II can function as a key light in small spaces and can also work together with larger Forza fixtures to shape tones and details for medium and large productions.

Covering more shooting scenarios

• Forza 60 II: 5600K
• Forza 60B II: 2700K–6500K

This combination offers the same power draw across the pair: a daylight-fixed option (Forza 60 II) and a variable CCT option (Forza 60B II) for flexible artistic expression across moods and styles.

Two output modes for reliable workflow

The Forza 60B II provides two output modes to suit different shooting needs. Maximum output mode delivers the highest possible brightness across the entire CCT range. Constant output mode keeps intensity relatively stable when you change color temperature frequently in exposure-sensitive environments. Use constant output to maintain a uniform amount of light while adjusting CCT during a take.

Color rendering and professional results

• Forza 60 II CRI: 95, TLCI: 98
• Forza 60B II CRI: Average 96, TLCI: Average 98
• TM-30 Rf: Average 93
• TM-30 Rg: Average 100

These measured values indicate strong color fidelity and saturation performance. The Forza 60/60B II line scores well across CRI, TLCI and TM-30 metrics, helping capture accurate colors and preserve color information for post-production flexibility.

Customizable effects for creative lighting

The Forza 60/60B II family offers a range of built-in lighting effects. The units include 11 or 12 special effects (model dependent), and each effect's perimeter is adjustable. These effects allow creators to combine light and shadow in creative ways without additional hardware.

Control and connectivity

Forza 60B II supports multiple control methods: on-board controls, 2.4G wireless, Bluetooth, and DMX/RDM. The on-board interface uses an OLED display and tuning knobs, and a dedicated MODE button lets you toggle quickly between operating modes.

The fixture has dual 2.4G and Bluetooth modules built in for quick remote control via the NANLINK app. For professional rigs, the lights include DMX/RDM functionality and a locking DMX port for stable wired control and networked setups. These options let you integrate the Forza 60B II into multi-light systems and realize advanced lighting scenes.

Quiet operation and fan options

The Forza 60B II uses a quieter built-in fan and offers the option to turn the fan off. With the fan running, noise can drop to 20 dBA, allowing use in many sound-sensitive recording situations without switching the fan off. Note that turning the fan off reduces maximum output to 30%.

Mounting and modifier ecosystem

Forza 60B II uses the compact FM mount and participates in the growing FM Mount modifier ecosystem, enabling a variety of diffusing, concentrating, cutting and projecting accessories. Nanlite includes an adapter to access Bowens-mount modifiers, providing compatibility with a broad range of native Bowens accessories.

Power options and portability

The Forza 60B II supports DC power via an optional battery grip. It accepts two NPF batteries or one V-mount battery to enable run-and-gun operation when you travel light between locations. A premium carrying bag is included for one Forza 60 II/60B II configuration; the bag features reinforced design and protection, plus an external fixing point for a light stand to assist on-location setup.

Firmware updates and future improvements

The lamp head includes a USB port for firmware upgrades. This allows Nanlite to deliver new features and operational improvements over time based on user feedback.
