This guide is for photographers and filmmakers seeking enhanced light control. The Westcott 40-Degree Egg Crate Grid provides precise directionality, minimizing light spill and lens flare to shape light effectively. While it dramatically improves light focus, it does add a slight reduction in the overall softness compared to an open softbox.

This 40-degree egg crate grid is specifically designed for the Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa M and Octa XL softboxes.
The increased depth helps to further narrow the beam of light, enhancing control over off-axis light and reducing spill more effectively.
While it does focus the light more, the grid is designed to maintain the inherent softness of the large Octa softbox. It primarily controls directionality rather than drastically altering the diffusion.
The grid collapses instantly into an included carrying case, making it very portable and easy to store when not in use.
The grid features heavy-duty touch fasteners that allow for instant attachment to the edges of compatible Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa softboxes.
The grid provides a 40-degree beam angle, focusing the light forward and minimizing spill in other directions.
Ensure the touch fasteners on both the grid and the softbox are clean and free of debris. Check that the grid is aligned correctly with the softbox edge.
Verify that the grid is fully secured around the entire softbox perimeter. Ensure the softbox is positioned correctly relative to the subject and background.
Make sure all touch fasteners are engaged. The lightweight design is intentional for portability, but a secure attachment is key to performance.
Setup: The grid attaches directly to the Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa M or Octa XL softboxes using integrated heavy-duty touch fasteners. Align the grid's edges with the softbox and press firmly around the perimeter to secure it. Ensure all fasteners are engaged for optimal performance.
Compatibility: This grid is specifically designed for the Westcott Rapid Box Switch Octa M and Octa XL softboxes. It is not compatible with other softbox brands or models.
Care: To clean the grid, use a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure the grid is completely dry before folding and storing. Store the grid in its included carrying case to protect it from damage and dust.
