Planning on doing a simple comparison between some lights. No run times, no quoted lumen output, etc. Just a photo of each at the same exposure across the board so that each light can be compared to another on a level playing field. Fixed distance, I'll throw a deco bottle and a lift bag down at the end of the pool as a reference.
This isn't a scientific test. I'm not using an integrating sphere. I'm not quoting runtimes or lumen output by manufacturer. This is literally just a visual comparison with the same baseline.
Lights I'm planning on using:
UWLD LD-35
Halcyon Focus 2.0, both wide open and full narrow
Light Monkey 32wVF, both wide and narrow
Halcyon 21w HID
Light Monkey/Hog 18w HID
Dive Rite 10w HID, both wide and narrow
Sartek ???w HID
Light Monkey 12w handheld
Halcyon Mini Explorer
Halcyon 3C Scout LED
Halcyon 3C Scout halogen
DRIS Shorty
If you have anything else you'd like to see I'm willing to throw it in the mix, however, I'm not gonna go out of my way to purchase a bunch of lights I'm never gonna use, I've already got a bunch I'm not using as you can see in the list of lights I already have. You're welcome to send me a light to photograph, just pay shipping. This will happen end of August when I'm back in the States.
