Godox AD-B2 Dual Power Twin Head Bowens Mount - 400Ws Modeling

In this review the Godox AD-B2 Dual Power Twin Head Bowens Mount is assessed for photographers who want to double the output of pocket flashes without buying a full monolight. The bottom line: it is a practical, well-built mounting solution that lets you install two Godox AD200 or Flashpoint EVOLV 200 units to achieve a combined 400ws head and access a bright 2x20w LED modelling option. For studios and on-location shooters who already own one or two compatible pocket flashes, this bracket delivers flexible modifier compatibility and a compact path to higher effective power.

Key Features

• Dual flash installation: Installs two AD200 or EVOLV 200 pocket flashes together to create a combined 400ws head for more output when needed.
• LED modelling: Provides 2x20w LED modelling that can be powered by a single flash body with one barebulb inserted, useful for continuous light reference.
• Bowens S-type mount: Standard Bowens S-type connection accepts a wide range of reflectors, softboxes and other modifiers for studio versatility.
• Light stand receiver: Built-in light stand receiver with a tilt lock secures the head to any 5/8' stud or similar support for reliable positioning.
• Umbrella channel: Includes an umbrella shaft channel so you can use umbrellas alongside other Bowens modifiers without extra adapters.

Who It's For

Photographers and videographers who already own one or two Godox AD200 or Flashpoint EVOLV 200 pocket flashes and want a compact, low-cost route to higher effective flash output will benefit most. It is particularly suited to portrait, event and location shooters who need Bowens compatibility for common softboxes and reflectors.

Those who need full-featured monolight controls, built-in flash tubes, or professional-grade cooling should look elsewhere, because this product is an adapter/bracket that depends on the pocket flash bodies for power and flash head functions; standard monolights and reflectors/flash tubes are not included.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid build quality and reliable mount that customers praise for durability and functionality.
• Delivers real versatility by converting pocket flashes into a Bowens-compatible head for common modifiers.
• Bright modelling capability with 2x20w LED that works even when only one flash body is used.

Cons

• Requires compatible AD200 or EVOLV 200 units; the bracket alone does not include flashes, tubes, or monolight features.
• Some users note mixed ease of adjustment when tilting or tightening, so occasional fiddling may be needed to lock angles.
