I just built my own canister light ...without canister. I just took the lead accumulator, connected the necessary wiring and expoxysealed the wires. I dove it to 35 m today, and it worked out just splendid. Switching is implemented by a reed in my homemade lighhead (which also carries my home-made HID-ballast). This way, the only thing which "can" fail is the lighthead. The new "canister" is more sleek than traditional designs, and also incorporates less pointy parts (i.e. excenter locks etc) which can entangle.
Would like to hear if you think this is "the new way of doing it" or just stupid. Personally I can see no disadvantages.
