while under water the aluminum is to slippery.
A rubber ring on the front of the front of light would make it easer to turn.
Also this would protect the front of the light
From damage.
Thanks nick

had the same issue as previous reviewer bobos. the contact inside broke after having it for over a year. mind you, 2 dive trips with only a few night dives, so its hard to say it broke from being heavily used. at that point, beyond warranty. tried to contact aquastar via email (couldnt find phone number) but never heard back from them. ended up having to throw it away as it was rendered useless and i couldnt rig a fix myself. turned out to be quite the expensive 'disposable' torch.

although i liked it when it functioned, and it felt solid and strong, it proved otherwise with simple plastic pieces inside that were too easily broken. (still not sure how it broke.) I'd be skeptical to buy aquastar products again.

excellent in all features ..but there is a weak point ..the contactor part w the battery compartment breaks when totally twisted head and a bang or so happens..the inside connection between contactor and battery breaks into 2 parts ..non reparable but warranty changes the whole light ...

I was recently on a liveaboard in Indonesia where these lights were used as rentals. I liked them so much I bought one as soon as I got back.

Very solid construction. Sleek and comfortable to hold. Nice tight, bright beam and good battery life. Perfect for a daytime light and bright enough for a primary on night dives, or a superb backup.

The only thing I don't like is that it uses 6 AAA batteries; most chargers for rechargeable batteries only handle 4 at a time, so 6 is inconvenient.
