stupid queston?
now this could just be a stupid question (and it probabley is) but i have just bought a new backup torch and it says that it is pressure tight to 10 bar... how deep (in feet or meters) is this?

it dosen't sound alot but it could be something like 50 meters for all i know ...


cheers in advance

Correctomundo! Pressure at the surface is 1 bar (1 atmosphere) and it increases by 1 bar every 10 metres.
