Q: 2. How hot does the d2 get? Can it work with Profoto OCF gear?

Q: 8. I noticed there is a huge temperature shift when switching from ttl to manual. Can anyone explain why this is the case? Its really slowing me down. I start with ttl and do the fine tweaking on manual but the the temperature shifts too cool and i have to spend time setting the wb when i switch from ttl to manual.

A: TTL to manual should have no barring on the color temp. Try setting your camera to flash for the WB and see if this persists. Also check to make sure that the B1 isn't in freeze mode.

Q: 9. I have the D1 Air 500. The power cord often comes a little loose, causing me to lose power, especially when I have the strobe in almost vertical position. I've tried taping the cord in place, but it still comes loose. Does anyone else have this problem? I wonder if this right angle type of plug would help. Might be easier to secure with tape. It's so much cheaper than the Profoto cord, but I assume it would work just as well, right? https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/917037-REG/c2g_27909_10_18_awg_universal.html

A: For the D1 or D2 you would want to use this cable https://bhpho.to/2VF2E0N. Its a heavier gauge and designed to be able to handle the load of the flash. Using the thinner cable can run into issues with power delivery. Cables will wear over time and need to be replaced.

Q: 10. Does anyone make a fully functional universal remote for this ProFotoB1 X 500 AirTTL so that I don't need to buy one for every camera brand that I might use?

A: The Profoto Air Remote Transceiver, B&H # PRAR • MFR # 901031, would be a universal remote compatible for use with the Profoto B1X 500 AirTTL 1-Light To-Go Kit for cameras with a standard ISO hot shoe for MANUAL triggering ONLY. As it only has a single center pin, it will work with most all cameras, but will NOT offer TTL automatic flash output or High Speed Sync capabilities. While you may use third-party wireless radio remotes with the Profoto B1X 500 AirTTL 1-Light To-Go Kit unit via their 1/8" (3.5mm) miniphone sync input, there are no remotes other than the official Profoto radio remotes that will offer full functionality such as manual/TTL flash output control, turning groups on/off, or wireless control of the modeling lamp. These features are not possible with third-party remotes.
