Profoto L1600D LED light

The Profoto L1600D is a daylight-balanced, point-source LED built for uncompromising performance and speed of use. With a ballast-free design and an exceptional power-to-weight ratio, it delivers massive light output in a remarkably compact and lightweight form.

At its core lies Profoto’s patent-pending HydroCTech™ liquid cooling system — a breakthrough in thermal management that enables silent, efficient cooling in a smaller form factor, making the L1600 significantly more compact and portable than lights with similar output. This innovation, together with the powerful Profoto Core-1 LED engine, provides 1600 watts of flicker-free light with a wide dimming range and minimal power loss — all integrated directly into the head for faster, simpler setups and effortless transport.

Another unique feature of the L1600D is its dual mounting system. A Bowens S-mount for universal compatibility is complemented by a Profoto mount adapter that unlocks access to an unmatched range of Profoto light-shaping tools — from softboxes to hard reflectors — for ultimate creative control.

Engineered for professional production environments, the L1600D combines these innovations with robust IP54-rated durability. Built to perform in studios, on location, indoors or in the rain, this is a light made to work as hard as you do.

For the uncompromising pro, the Profoto L1600D brings more than powerful light — it delivers freedom, speed, and simplicity on set, so you can focus on what truly matters: shaping light and creating your vision.
