Unlike sites like this...

I think I'd have to see an aquavision unit in the flesh before I was willing to spend any dosh at all.
<font color='#0000FF'>stu,
fair comment no awards for site and torch's are not as good as cd but when budget is a factor cd will not always be possible and i thinks thats why so many divers here have them,word of mouth and hands on before buying.
if it was a best torch in the world contest i think woz has already won it.
cheers

<font color='#F52887'>Have to say had I known about the aquavision one at the time I probably would have got one instead of DR4, as not tooooo much of a price hike (and by this point in the day when purchasing my torch at brum dive show I was just handing over my card willy nilly - I even had to talk to bank on phone for 20mins to convince them it was me and my card hadn't been nicked)


As for the Woz torch, may look the business but can it walk the walk? we are off for sea trials (well stoney trials) in the near future

Mary, I was looking into the niterider stuff recently. Was thinking about one of the low end ones but decided it wasn't powerful enought to bother. Anyway, getting to the point: They're apparently going to be at the London dive show (they're on the exhibitor list anyway). If you're set on one, might be worth going along to check it out.

OK, cheers for all the advice, most enlightening &nbsp; . &nbsp;Looks like I'll be spending a bit more on torches than I was expecting.

At the moment it's a toss up between the OMS and the CD TDB for the wing - actually has anyone any experience of the new CD VBS wing?

Just gotta sort out the funds now then off to the dive show we go &nbsp;
