What is the replacement for this discontinued item?
Asked by: Colin
The new replacement version is the Rapid Box Switch which allows you to change the mount if you ever change your light system, or you can use the same softbox if you have multiple light systems. Please look up the Westcott Octa-S (Westcott SKU#2523) and the Bowens mount is Westcott SKU # 2530.

question

Can this work with a Paul C. Buff Einstein?
Asked by: dag
You will need an adapter to mount from BUFF light modifiers to Bowen. Not sure if there is one.

question

Is it compatible with godox bracket adb2 using 2 godox ad200 on it? Both ad200 have 400w if Im correct, is that enough power to use this octa outdoors?
Asked by: Gustavo
Yes, as the ADB2 is Bowens mount, this would work fine.

question

Is there a fabric grid for this unit? Where can I get one?
Asked by: Anonymous
I got one from ebay since Westcott does not make one. 120cm/47 Octagon Umbrella Softbox Studio/Strobe with Honeycomb Grid NEW 63JPWorks pretty good and it was very cheap!

question

I just bought this product but I cannot fit it on my xplor 600. I thought it came with the bowens attachment. Is that bought separately?

**NOTE - Apparently I can't add a photo to an answer but the second from the last photo in the item description gives a clear view of what the Bowen mount should look like.

all you need to use this modifier with a single speedlight is this: https://<a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1192371-REG/interfit_str239_bracket_for_strobies_s_type.html/mode/edu target= _blank >www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1192371-REG/interfit_str239_bracket_for_strobies_s_type.html/mode/edu</a>

question

If Westcott don't make a grid for this modifier might there be another brand that make a grid that could be used with it?
Asked by: Danielle C.
Unfortunately, there are no other grids that have been tested with this octabox to confirm any compatibility with it.

question

can this be used with a Strobies Pro-Flash 360Ws Flash?
Asked by: doug s.
Being that this modifier has a Bowens S type ring, the Raya Reflector Adapter for Speedlight B&H # RARAS would allow you to use it with an Interfit Strobies Pro Flash. Please see the image below for reference.
