Brand: Underwater Kinetics
Located in: Add-On Gear, Lights
The C4 eLED waterproof light is our lightest weight primary light. It is designed to fit smaller hands while still offering brightness comparable to lights twice its size. Its water-cooled heat sink actually increases brightness underwater and improves burn time. For maximum illumination and a comfortable fit, the C4 is the perfect solution. Unlike the standard glass envelope lamps used since Edison, the LED will not break when dropped. The life expectancy is well over 5000 hours. The light emitted by the LED (light emitting diode) is similar to sunlight and travels farther underwater than the more yellow light from an Edison lamp. In addition a power control circuit is built into the light to help maintain the same brightness throughout the discharge of a set of batteries. A tough O-ring sealed ABS and polycarbonate case protects the components all the way down to 500 feet. The small size of the C4 eLED makes it ideal for revealing the incredible marine life hidden under ledges. Light comes equipped with a wrist lanyard.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

Good for travel as it's super-light without the batteries, and shoots a great beam in unfamiliar waters. If any cons, beam is plenty bright but a little narrow. I use it as a back up for local and primary for travel. Can't beat this light for the money- it NUKES the bugs.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

I just compleated my first night dive. I was a bit aprehensive at first but with this light, my aprehension quickly turned to excitement as I was able to increse my visability of the surrounding enviroment. It made navigation simple due to it's strong and very bright beam of light. The half power switch is a nice touch too.

Service & Delivery comments:

Very prompt delivery. I used the UPS 2-day delivery and the cost was minimal but worth it.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

Very bright light and weighs 25 ounces. Just got back from the Coral Sea and this light worked great. The beam is bright white, relatively narrow but with a little light widely scattered. It would light up things 50+ yards away. It was much brighter than the non-led model that the other divers used. I have used it for 4 hours and the batteries are still going strong. It has a high and low setting, but the difference between the two is small.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

I bought this light for recreational night diving and it has exceeded my expectations. This light has a brilliant white beam that is well focused and plenty bright enough for night reef dives. I first considered the 8-cell light but am now glad I bought this one, it is a perfect primary for my style of diving.

I haven't used the light long enough to know the battery life, but initial use shows that it is very bright and I especially like the small size. Others with 8-C lights weren't as bright as mine on the dives we did.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

This review comes from a freediver. This is the last light I will own. It's small, but powerful. And it isn't too much of a weight to carry down to 20m and back. The batteries last for 4-6 hours of use, and the lights will never need replacing. Oh yeah, and the bulbs (there are two) fire up right away - no waiting 15 seconds like the HID bulbs. No better dive light for freedivers.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

I use the C4 eLED as a back-up night dive light as it fits in a good size BCD pocket. On the occasions my primary light has gone out, the C4 proved to be good enough for most divers to replace it as a main light. I also use it for day dives in caves and for searching under ledges etc.

Comments about Underwater Kinetics Underwater Kinetics Sunlight "C4 eLED" Dive Light with Pistol Grip:

I have been very happy with this purchase! I have used this light a number of times with students during Open Water and Advanced in a local quarry. It's very dark below about 30 feet and although I have a strobe on the back of my tank the students have difficulty seeing me beyond about 4 feet when I take them "on tour". I typically take the light and shine it over my right shoulder and students say it is a great beacon for them to follow.

Also, I've not had to change the batteries although I've logged at least 16 hours or more on the originals. The owner's manual suggested 4-6 hours of burn time, but I've far exceeded that and haven't noticed a reduction in power.

The grip is comfortable and shaped nicely to reduce fatigue and make one hand operation easy.

Great light!

A good bright torch with easy to use switch ... only minor con to watch out for is that the lock on the bottom of the switch can be pulled out easily when unlocking it. The light beam is strong and the full setting cuts through the murk really well.
