Product Information
Full details
The NanLite Pico Magnetic Eggcrate is a precision light modifier tailored for creators using the Pico LED Mini Pocket Light. It is an ideal tool for photographers and videographers who need to achieve tighter beam control and reduce stray light spill in small-scale or tight-space lighting setups. While it excels at narrowing the light beam from 45 to 27 degrees, it is important to note that this accessory is specifically designed for the Pico series and is not universal for other pocket lights.

FAQs
Does this work with other NanLite pocket lights?
No, the NanLite Pico Magnetic Eggcrate is exclusively designed for the Pico LED Mini Pocket Light.
Does the eggcrate change the color temperature of the light?
No, the eggcrate is a physical modifier and does not alter the color temperature or CRI of your LED output.
How much does the accessory weigh?
It weighs only 1.23 oz, making it extremely portable.
Does it block a significant amount of light?
While it narrows the beam, you may experience a slight reduction in overall intensity, which is standard for grid modifiers.
Can I use this with other modifiers like diffusers?
The magnetic system is designed specifically for this eggcrate; stacking multiple magnetic accessories may impact the security of the attachment.
Troubleshooting
The eggcrate does not snap into place.
Ensure that the front face of your Pico LED Mini is free from debris or dust that might interfere with the magnetic contact.
The eggcrate keeps falling off.
Check that the alignment is centered. If the issue persists, ensure that there are no obstructions between the magnets and the light housing.
