Top Rated Gear: LENSband Flash Band for All Speedlights Color: Yellow, Flash Bag Size: One Size

The LENSband Flash Band is a high quality silicone band that stretches around the top of a speedlight and snugly stays in place. Its primary function is to identify flash units that are being used off-camera, in a public setting. For example, if you are shooting a concert and have an off-camera flash set up near the stage, you want that speedlight to be identifiable and you want it to be left alone. The bright yellow color of the Flash Band and its black text, reading DO NOT TOUCH, make clear to anyone that the flash belongs to someone and is in use. The band also has a dedicated space to write your name or other pertinent information. It fits tightly around the flash unit and can also be used to hold color gels and light modifiers in place. As mentioned, the band is made of strong silicone that can stretch to twice its size and therefore fit almost any speedlight on the market.

These things are fantastic universal tools to attach many flash accessories instead of permanent velcro rigs that aren't compatible with each other, and they are more secure than velcro rigs.  For example the velcro rigs for the LumiQuest 80-20 and Better Beamer Flash Extender are incompatible on my Flashpoint Zoom Li-On R2 unit, but the Flash LensBand obviates these incompatibilities leaving the flash head free of permanents changes and ready for other attachments.
