Miniwave II

The Miniwave II incorporates the same power up feature of the popular Shockwave II. By flipping a switch, you can choose the required amount of light and power up from 3.0 watts to 5.8 watts. The unique switch system also offers the added security of switching to an alternate bulb filament in the event the filament in use burns out. The Miniwave II is compact, lightweight and easyto operate. It will satisfy your every need and be there when you need it.

Comments about Princeton Tec Princeton Tec, Miniwave II:

The on/off trigger was difficult to operate, but then would turn itself on in my gear. I had 3 dives with it before the housing cracked...Had to replace batteries twice. Maybe I had a defective light, but I would never recommend this to anyone.

Comments about Princeton Tec Princeton Tec, Miniwave II:

This light works great...until the trigger mechanism breaks. This is the second light I have bought and the first one worked until the plastic switch broke on the inside. I also know that this is happened to my dive buddy with the exact same light. I do have to say that I got about 100 night dives out of the light before it broke, so it did get some fair amount of use. Only recommend it b/c it is not that expensive of a light.

Comments about Princeton Tec Princeton Tec, Miniwave II:

A good light for the money. Has dual filament bulb versus dual bulbs. That gives some redundancy, if one filament burns out, but not if the bulb itself is damaged/broken from environmental stresses (water, shock). The batteries last about what I would expect. It's good for recreational diving. But, it pales when compared to canister lights (which cost hundreds of dollars).
