You could try.. But i have dropped the "cheap china" lights and diy lights after a few years of trials and errors... So going for a well know brand now, suitable for tech diving and murky waters.
Still waiting for it. But I'm gonna try out a Tillytec led canister light now.. i will have the opportunity to test it before paying for it... if i don't like it i think i will get a Halcyon HID when my wallet say OK..
No problems with mine. I bought mine from Brinyte direct. I had initial problems with the batteries, but turned out it was the chargers that were bad. Mine came with both batteries and charger from Brinyte.
Try contacting brinyte. They have a warranty on their lights, I think within first 2 years parts & labour are free. After that you just pay for parts, labour is free. I think you have to pay shipping to China and back.I bought this light in Janyary on Ebay ($160 at that time) and used it for 6 dives since then. Now the light doesn't work anymore as it should be. When I close the battery compartment, the light stays on (without having touched the button). Pressing the button a few times turns off the lamp. After it is off, there is no way I can turn it on again. I have to unscrew the battery compartment and close it again to turn it on :S. I cannot use it as it is now... I contacted the seller on Ebay. He says the warranty is already passed (only 3 months). I can only get a refund of 20 dollars... Does anybody have experience how to open the lamp and get to the electronics? Are the electronics in the lamp part or in the battery part? Do you think you can close it afterwards and make it leaktight again?
