Easy to chance and install

This buy saved me getting a new softbox. Super easy and functional.

Great way to use other modifiers

This was a great addition to my modifier collection. Traditionally I have shot Elinchrom but recently bought some Evolve AD200?s, this adaptor easily transitioned my Elinchrom gear to Bowens which allowed a direct connection to the Glow S2 flash bracket.

Great Product, as Exepcted

How much can you say about a speed ring? Materials and build quality are excellent. This ring connects very strong and tight to my Elinchrom strobes. I have D-Lite and BRX monos. If anything this more secure than some of my Elinchrom rings (but I have used them for a long time too.) The Westcott Switch series is great for me. They let me move modifiers between studio strobes and LED continuous lights (I have some Aputure and CLAR units). Westcott produces good quality and good value modifiers.

Bowens Switch Plate

The switch plate was really hard to install with the light. So the big issue for me is portability to be able to be able to assemble/disassemble it quickly. The light itself worked really well but I do think it would be easier to go back to the Bowens mounted light with the switch.

Great Product!

The switch insert is simply a smart product. It just makes sense to be able to use the same modifiers on different light sources.

High quality at half the price

If you have Profoto lights, like I do, it stings rather hard to have to spend a small fortune on Profoto modifiers. When Westcott came out with their "switch" modifiers, it was the answer I was looking for. The modifiers are quality at a fraction of the cost.

Hands-On Review: Testing the New Westcott Rapid Box Switch

"If you’ve never used a Rapid Box before, let me briefly explain. In a “classic” softbox, the photographer has a “speed ring” on which they build their box. Depending on the size of the softbox, this can take several valuable minutes away from your session. Beyond that, it requires a certain amount of strength to set up and tear down, making the task difficult for some.

With the Westcott Rapid Box system, the Softbox is built on a frame similar to an umbrella (but different from the Halo or Apollo in that the light itself sits in the back, like a traditional softbox). By simply sliding the locking mechanism up the rod you can build (or break down) your Rapid Box in seconds. This amazing refinement allows you to create beautiful light whenever and wherever you need it, quickly and with little fuss...."
