Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
I bought this light to be my primary, but after comparing it to my instructor's LED light, it quickly became my backup. I like the design and durability but for the price, it could be much brighter.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
Bought Two, One leaked at 18' LP replaced no problem there. Replacement leaked at 30' again no problem w/LP. Now I use silicon emergency tape over lens cover and body, small inconvenience, but for the price, it has great lighting.
Quick delivery, well packaged, and L/P was very prompt with replacing water damaged lights

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
Nice light. Because of the large diameter, it is VERY difficult to grip in order open it to install batteries.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
Great light. Lock feature is good so that the light doesn´t waste all batteries accidentally on the way to dive site.
Delivery was as expected. Great.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
Good light maybe not the brightest as some have stated but it works fine for me on the limited number of night dives I do, looking under ledges during the day and on limited penetration on wreck dives.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
I am an instructor and technical diver. I own several of these lights for use with recreational classes. It is a great light for the money. Not the best or brightest in the world but I have not found anything that comes close to the value of this light. The construction is no where as durable as other lights but I have never had a structural problem. A few floods due to students not paying attention to the o-ring a few bulbs is the only problems I have ever had from this light. Great for a new night diver.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
The only way to use recharable battries is to alternate 3 alkaline and 3 rechargable in the main battery case. the other 2 on the outside can be rechargable.
I checked with the sales people before I bought it and they said that I could use either types of batteries, but after I got the product and bought rechargable batteries and a charger, and it did not work, I called the manufacturer directly and they said that it could only be used with alkaine batteries.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
This light pretty much just lives up to expectations. I currently own 8 of them. I am an instructor and technical diver. The light is pretty much a work horse for night diving class. It is not the best or brightest but is a solid light for the money. This is a great light for the average recreational diver who is only gonna make a few night dives a year in relatively clear water. I have had a few floods and bad bulbs over the years but the light is solid and a good value. I do recommend this lights to students and have had good feedback on it.

Not bright enough for my liking for use as a primary,...but then again have the Darkbuster Jr HID for that,... great for a backup use the 4C model to cut down on weight and bulkyness!
Great product, good price!

This little light packs a lot of good features. It's compact but puts out a good beam for it's size.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
This light performs reliably for me in the chilly waters of the Pacific Northwest. I've had no failures, leaks or disappointments with it since I purchased it at the start of the 2007 season.

Works fine, no problems so far. Use good batteries, not cheap ones!

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
I used this light one time and the intensity was amazing, however, it was short lived. The bulb burned out within two minutes. On the surface I was able to replace the bulb with the back up bulb which was nice, so I could continue with more dives. The back up bulb isn't as bright, however it does the job.

Great starter light. Is fairly bright, has a nice focussed beam and fits in my BC pocket.

Comments about Pelican Pelican Nemo 4300 Submersible:
I find the size, weight and shape to be perfect. It really is the smallest 8C light out there! I prefer the intuitive rocking switch compared to the switches of competing brands. The switch lock is also easier to toggle. The lamp disassembles quickly for access to batteries and bulb. Though it comes with a lanyard, I purchased a retractor to go along with it for easier handling. The light output is not as white, but plenty bright for both night dives and daytime use. The xenon bulb will get quite hot, so use out of water is not recommended. If you don’t mind extra size, weight, and cost (plus the hefty bulb price) the UK Cannon 100 would be a better choice for you – however, I’m sticking to this Nemo.
