Westcott 4709 FJ400 protective cover

The Westcott 4709 is a protective cover built for the FJ400 strobe flash tube and glass dome. It uses a secure Bowen S-Type mount to lock onto the head during transport and storage. Photographers who move the FJ400 between locations will find it adds a durable shield against knocks and dust. The cover is designed specifically for this strobe model and its integrated LED modeling lamp.

Replaces lost or damaged original cover

This accessory replaces the factory cover if it has been misplaced or cracked, restoring the strobe's front protection. The jump is worth it whenever the FJ400 travels without a case, because the glass dome and flash tube are exposed to impact. Without the cover, a single knock can shatter the dome and stop a shoot. It adds no function beyond physical protection for the existing hardware.

Limits of Bowen S-Type mount coverage

The cover only protects the front face attached via the Bowen S-Type mount; the strobe body and controls remain exposed. It does not waterproof the unit or shield the LCD display and menu system from rain or debris. Users relying on High Speed Sync up to 1/8000s or Freeze Sync up to 1/19000s must still guard the electronics separately. The cover stays mounted during use but offers no thermal or electrical insulation.
