Take Control of Your Light
The grid's honeycomb-style design narrows the spread of light from your softbox, helping you illuminate your subject while keeping light off surrounding areas. This allows for greater contrast, improved separation, and more precise lighting control, particularly when working in studio environments or confined spaces.
Maintain Soft Light Quality
Unlike many light control accessories that create a harsher look, this egg crate grid maintains the soft, flattering light quality that makes large softboxes so popular. The deeper cell design provides improved performance while preserving smooth transitions and natural-looking shadows.
Quick Setup and Easy Transport
The grid attaches directly to the Rapid Box Switch 3' x 3' using durable touch fasteners, allowing for fast setup and removal. When not in use, it folds down instantly into the included storage case, making it easy to transport and store alongside your lighting kit.

TFC's Verdict:
This is one of those accessories that can make a surprisingly big difference to your lighting. If you regularly use a large softbox and want more control over where your light falls, an egg crate grid is a worthwhile investment. It's particularly useful for portraits and video work where controlling spill light can dramatically improve the overall look of your images.
