Speedotron 102 Overview

This is the tried-and-true, standard flash head of the Speedotron Black Line. Each 102 head is consistent in power output, and ease of reflector, flash tube, and model light change.
All Black Line light units utilize modular construction for easy storage and travel and are cabled with the new locking/quick-release power supply connector which is compatible with all older Black Line power supplies. A power supply for this flash head is required.

Modular Construction
Aluminum, durable for years of studio and location use and abuse.
Easy to Control
Sure-grip handle for precise aiming of light
Easily Replaceable Flash Tube
3200w plug-in vented UV coated quartz flash tube #14571. Flash tube may also be replaced with non-UV coated tube #14570.
Fan Cooled
High-efficiency -- necessary for rapid firing, constant model light use, and use with a softbox
Removeable Reflector
7" grid reflector included, the 102 head will accept all of Speedotron's Blackline reflectors up to and including the 22" beauty light.
Modeling Light
250w quartz modeling lamp #14520, also known as a GBESS, included. Will also accept a 150W quartz bulb, for cooler running.
Long-Reaching Cable
20' cable included. Head extension cables are available for heads in use at longer distances from the power pack.

Speedotron 102 Reviews

They just keep working

Replacing some older heads. The new fans are much quieter which I imagine everyone on set appreciates, I know I do. What else is there to say? It's Speedotron and it works forever.

Solid performance

There are better lights with more color consistency across their power range, but you have to pay a lot more money. These heads are durable, easy to get repaired and a great value for the money.

question

If the Speedotron 102 is not working, would the first logical step be to replace the bulb?
Asked by: CINDYRAY
Yes, if you are having an issue with your Speedotron 102 Black Line - 2400 Watt/Second Lamphead, I would first recommend changing the modeling lamp and flash tube, which would be the Impact ESS Lamp (250W, 120V), B&H # IMESS, or the Speedotron MW8QVC Flashtube, UV Coated - 3200w/s - for 102CC Head, B&H # SPFTUV102. If you have changed the lamps and the unit is still not operational, then I would recommend contacting Speedotron directly for assistance with your strobe head. You may contact Speedotron directly either by calling them at (630)246-5001 or by e-mailing them at [email protected] for assistance with your inquiry.

question

Do your Speedotron soft boxes come with a speed ring that fits a 102 uv head? The ad reads that it does, but a review claims it does not and purchasing a separate ring was needed.
Asked by: Anonymous
Speedotron softboxes include a speed ring to fit the 202 and 206 Black Line heads. Having said that, you would need the Speedotron Speed Ring for M11, 102, 103, 105, 106 Heads B&H # SPSRM11 in order to use the 102 lamp head on their softboxes. An image for the ring is listed below.

question

Will the Speedotron 102 work with a Norman 2000 power pack?
Asked by: Anonymous
This Speedtron 102 head will only work on Speedtron Black Line power packs like the Speedotron 1205CX 1200 w/s Power Pack (120V) B&H # SP1205CX. A flash head that can work with a Norman P2000D power pack is the Norman LH2400 - 2400 Watt/Second Lamphead B&H # NOLH2400. Please see the image below for reference.
