The Westcott Rapid Box Switch / Beauty Dish Switch Insert for Speedlites does have a way to rotate but it will not lock into a fixed 90° position. Also note that most flashes do not rotate that way when tied down via hot shoe except for certain Sony flashes.

How does the size opening of the speedlite Switch Insert compare with the rapid box duo? Particularly, will the switch insert accept TWO speedlites like the rapid box duo?
