Flashing thingy
I've just bought one of those flashing Aquatec LED lights for attaching to the top of one's SMB on night dives.

I can get it to flash but not to shine as a continuous light. Anyone know how I do that?

Maybe that's why it's called a flashing light.

Well, yes, but I'm sure I read a review comparing its flashing burn time to its continuous light burntime, which would imply that it has a continuous light burntime!

You buy another one that doesn't flash!

I guess you can't:-

The Aquatec LED Mini Light Stick
The Aquatec Mini LED Light Stick will replace the standard chemical light stick that is, unbelievably, still in use today. The LED Light Stick uses a high intensity LED along with a patented light diffusing acrylic material to give you an incredible glow that is very visible. These light sticks allow you to not only use on your person during a night dive, you can also use them to mark the anchor, entry points, etc.
The two different models (constant and flash) and four different colors allows you to be unique and stand out from other divers. Some groups have used these light sticks to color code their members. You can assign each member of your dive group with a different combination of models and colors.

Not now that I'm 41 you wouldn't

It doesn't seem very bright but then again, I am sitting in a sunlit room at work. It might be a bit more effective at sea at night, of course

Ooh, ooh and my new camera arrived as well
