| I have 3 torches - an SL6, and SL4 and the freebie from Diver Magazine. Effective doesn't have to be huge - although the HIDs give off a lovely beam of light
I got these quite a while before I bought my Quantum. I too prefer to see where I am under water, and if your computer packs up, you've got a torch to make it easier to read your depth gauge (sp?) and watch.
On my 2nd sea dive, my buddy lent me his torch - although the vis was pretty good (I think); the colours came alive in torch light. Ever since then I won't dive without a torch. I was glad of it at about 10m in Holyhead harbour a couple of months later; where I was lucky to see my own fins
