This was the first dive light I ever purchased. My dive instructor recommended it when I was renting equipment for my tenth dive. It totally changed my daytime diving experience. Being able to see the true colors of those gorgeous red, purple, and pink sunstars was well worth the [$]I paid for this little light. My dive buddies would often swim over to borrow the light to check something out. We were able to see lobsters under rocks and it's convenient to get somebody's attention by waving the light.I highly recommend this light for increasing visibility during daytime dives, or as a backup light. It's not bright enough that I'd feel comfortable using it as a primary light for a night dive or cave dive.I had the same problem that other reviewers had, it comes open too easily. Lucky for me, I never had it open while I was under water, but it did always fall open in my bag. After my last dive, it came open in the suitcase and the plastic pieces inside were broken and lost by the time I got home. It lasted me a good 5 years. My next light will be a little brighter and a little sturdier, but this was a great My First Dive Light.

This light gives good light when it works, but it opens too easily underwater. The safety latches for it's unique design are too easy to trip when you're working with gloves on and the heavy spring inside which keeps the contact readily bursts the top off if the retaining plastic piece is slightly open. It's not a simple screw on cap to the battery compartment but instead I ended up with 3 peices in my hands and 6 batteries falling out of the canister in the middle of a night dive. Good thing I had a backup light!

          I had an opportunity to do some night snorkeling in Cozumel, and didn't have a light. Purchased one of these on the spot for [$]. I was so impressed that when I returned to the US I bought my family members one each.
