Pro-8a is designed to be free of compromises. Pro-8a is the fastest, roughest, most versatile and stable generator yet still with the widest power range we ever developed. Pro-8a has a new unique two stage SMPS (Switch Mode Power Supply) recharging circuit making repetition rates faster than ever before. Shoot up to 20 frames per second or 2 per second at 1200Ws. Usage of cameras continues triggering is now practically possible with Pro-8a. Durability of Pro-8a is exceptional to comply with rental and fashion needs plus the greatly increased need of frames taken due to no cost of fi lm with digital cameras.

Due to our invention, Profoto PiPE technology (Pre-ignition Plasma Establishing – patent pending). Pro-8a has an extensive wide light power range with exceptional stability of the light energy and color temperature. Safety of the Pro-8a generator is exeptional and complies with the highest demands.
