For the run-and-gun pro who wants a portable strobe system that operates on AC or battery power, but doesn't need the power of a Broncolor A4, Calumet's new Travelite 125 may be just the ticket. The Travelite head and Calumet's TravelPak portable lead-acid battery have a combined weight of about five pounds, yet the combination is designed to provide an ample 500-plus full-power pops per charge. It also has a 250-watt modeling light that's bright enough to add some tungsten to the exposure, if you like.

The Travelite 125 has a built-in optical slave, stepless power adjustment, and a five-year warranty. Unlike most monolights, which ship with reflectors, Calumet makes you purchase the Travelite reflector as an accessory. In our opinion it's a small price to pay for this kind of portable power. From about $370. calumetphoto.com
