Re: AB800 too bright?
Other than ND on camera lens, there probably is no good solution in that tiny space. A smaller B400 will not be magic, it will be one stop less intense, but only one stop. Distance to the light is what you need, twice as far is two stops less light. But if only 7 feet camera to background....
The sock on the beauty light might be thicker, like adding a couple of extra layers of white bed sheet over the front (not in the back where the fan is). Should block considerable light. I suppose it becomes a softbox then.
