| A bit late I know but finally can give an opinion on this torch.
First impressions are wow.. it's small and it's light.
As said before, my first dive with this was my first Scapa dive so I was a bit nervous for a number of reasons.
I needn't have worried . I switched the torch on as I decended the Shot Line to the Brummer and was very pleased witht the resultant beam. A very white light with great penetration.
Over the week I had a number of comments from my buddies on how impressed they were. It compared very favourably to the Halcyon Umbilical HID and in my humble opinion produced a much better light than the Kowalski carried by others on the boat. The burn time meant I could turn it on at the bottom of the shot and keep it on for the full dive ( unlike the Kowalski users.....)
It may be fairly expensive for a handheld torch but so far I am very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone.
Cheers
