I dive with this light day and night. For anything under about 8 metres it really brings out the colours and details so I can really see what I'm down there to see. For crevices, underhangs, and caves its great - I spot things I wouldn't normally see. I sometimes use it as an auxillary light for my buddy's photography.

For night diving, well, it's fantastic. While my buddies are straining to see something with their dim 15cm spot of light, the beam on this thing swings over like an SUV just drove past and they think "Oh, that's better". It has low output mode if you don't want so much light.

There's a bit of weight, but that's all due to carrying 8 batteries; the unit itself is lightweight. It's tough; I do shore diving in Sydney so getting bashed by waves is common. I just clip it to my BCD and it's fine. Clip and extension coil are solid. I've dropped it when washing my gear - no problem.

The other thing is that I've done about 35 to 40 hours of diving with it and I haven't had to replace the batteries yet.

Only small glitch is that the switch is 'buggy'. On mine it's possible to lock the mechanism to the 'off' position but it is still on (in low output mode). It's no problem since battery life is so good. i just put my hand in front to check it if its daytime then wiggle the switch and it turns off.

Because it's LED you can use it above water too. I use it to spot wildlife and to find and catch the fish in my fishpond when I'm cleaning it.

Of all my dive gear, this is one of the items I'm most happy I bought.
