The Dynalite MP1000 1000 Watt/Second Power Pack is similar to the RP1000/M1000ER, but includes a built-in Pocket Wizard brand radio slave receiver, and an extra stop of dial-down variability on the main power variator. The built-in 32 channel Pocket Wizard brand radio slave allows you to move around your subject while you shoot without the thought of getting tangled up in a sync cord.
The MP1000 is extremely compact and lightweight -- perfect for location photography. It provides short duration flash to your Dynalite heads, and has a very short recycle time. Color shift from full to minimum power is invisible.
Whether it is conventional or digital, in the studio or on location, Dynalite has been recognized as the strobe equipment with power and performance in a small, lightweight package since 1969.

Comments about Dynalite 1000 Watt/Second Power Pack with Radio Slave (120VAC):
With a reduction in size from the previous line of 1000ws + the addition of the on board wizard compatibility, this new 1000ws pack is perfect for location shooting. The switch notations ie., half full and quarter differ from my other dynalite packs of 125 250 and 500 which makes instructing assistants what to do with various packs a bit more difficult, it would be nice if they kept that the same.

Comments about Dynalite 1000 Watt/Second Power Pack with Radio Slave (120VAC):
I use two of these packs in a travel kit with four heads. Decided to switch back to a pack and head system after using monolights for location. It is lighter, more uniform lighting, and more light to boot. These are the packs I use when I need to get it done with the least amount of fuss.
