This 40° Grid for Astra 1x1 and Hilio D12/T12 Snapbag from Litepanels is designed to work with the Snapbag softbox (sold separately) for the Astra 1x1 and Hilio T12/D12 lights. It narrows the light beam to a 40° spread while adding directional control and containing spill light.

Well built and high quality grid for the 1x1s. While I feel the price is high for what it is, I can't complain about the quality.
This is a great addition for your softbox, fixes spill problems and focuses your light better. If you own this light and the softbox, this is a no brainer.
Bought two of these to control spill for my two Astra 1x1s. These are expensive but well made. I really like how stiff the grid is when in place, but easy to fold up for storage.
Little too big for tge 'snapbag' brand chimera, but it does the job..
Must Have for an Astra!
Well made, seems very sturdy, unlike others I've had in the past.
You get what you pay for. This installs quickly and easily. Stores easily too.
I gave it a 5 rating because the build quality is excellent. Set up is pretty fast, too. I was a bit disappointed with the spill control. In fairness, I am used to using a honeycomb grid, which cuts the light off like barndoors do. But, I have used an eggcrate with the Lowel Rifa light and if memory serves, it seemed to provide better control over light spill. In any case, it will last for a long time.
