Overview
The Lightsock 20 is a compact covered wagon diffusion kit engineered for the Astera Helios Tube. Like all Lightsock systems, it uses a frameless design where the Helios Tube itself provides the structural support. Assembly is tool-free and optimized for fast on-set deployment.
This configuration allows Helios fixtures to produce a broader, softer source while retaining the flexibility and mounting options the tube platform is known for.

Usage Notes
The end plates attach directly to the Helios Tube using M5 male threads. Each tightening knob includes an M5 female thread for mounting with compatible accessories such as floor stands or handles.
The access flap allows the tube to remain mounted in standard holders or wing plates without removing the modifier.
Run open for 360-degree soft output, or engage one or both siders to reduce spill and shape the beam.
